In an intensely competitive Segunda Division clash, CD Castellon demonstrated a commanding display, securing a 2-0 victory over Eibar. The home side took an early lead with a goal timed at 17:37 in the first half, capitalizing on their opponents' early defensive vulnerabilities. This momentum was sustained into the second half when they doubled their advantage at 57:04, further asserting their dominance in the match.

CD Castellon's ability to maintain shape and discipline significantly contributed to their victory. Their defensive line was well-organized, evidenced by not conceding any goals and avoiding any offside traps, a stark contrast to Eibar which fell into the offside trap twice. Despite having fewer corner kicks, Castellon efficiently utilized their limited set-piece opportunities in contrast to Eibar's ineffective attack from corners.

Eibar's inability to maintain composure was highlighted by their accumulation of yellow cards, collecting four cautions compared to Castellon's single booking. The yellow card spree began early for Eibar at 8:33, showcasing a lack of discipline which only escalated with a rapid succession of cards in the 88th minute. This indiscipline disrupted their rhythm and hindered any comeback attempts, ultimately proving costly against a well-drilled Castellon side.

In terms of tactical shifts, substitutions played no documented pivotal role in altering the game's tempo. Castellon’s cohesive teamwork and ability to capitalize on Eibar's defensive lapses and indiscipline were critical. While Eibar managed slightly more corner opportunities, they failed to convert these into threats, underscoring a lack of sharpness in their attack and reflecting a broader trend of inefficiency in their offensive play.
