The Copa Federacion clash between Atletico Mancha Real and CD Cieza was a spirited contest, ending with CD Cieza clinching a narrow 3-2 victory. The match kicked off with an early breakthrough by CD Cieza, capitalizing on their attacking pressure with a goal in the 22nd minute. Atletico Mancha Real quickly equalized six minutes later, showcasing their resilience and ability to respond under pressure. CD Cieza, however, restored their lead just before halftime, which proved crucial in setting the tone for the second half.

A critical factor in CD Cieza's victory was their superior ability to apply pressure through corner kicks, having secured nine compared to Atletico Mancha Real's four. This led to multiple scoring opportunities, allowing CD Cieza to extend their lead to 3-1 early in the second half. Despite Atletico Mancha Real's attempts to claw back with a goal in the 78th minute, their effort was hampered by a critical red card. The red card, issued in the second half, undoubtedly impeded their ability to build cohesive attacks as they found themselves at a numerical disadvantage.

On the disciplinary front, CD Cieza's aggressive style resulted in four yellow cards, which could have resulted in a more penalizing impact on another day. Atletico Mancha Real wasn't free from caution, collecting two yellow cards themselves, which coupled with the red card, added constraints on their defensive options. Both teams showed lapses in discipline, yet CD Cieza managed their fouls better, avoiding a red card. This, along with their ability to convert their set-pieces into goals, was key in securing their win despite being caught offside more frequently than Atletico Mancha Real.
