In a tightly contested match between Orihuela CF and RSD Alcala, the latter emerged victorious with a narrow 0-1 win. The solitary goal came early in the first half at 7 minutes and 26 seconds, setting the tone for the remainder of the game. Despite Orihuela CF's offensive efforts, highlighted by their eight corner kicks compared to Alcala's three, they couldn't capitalize on their chances. Their lack of clinical finishing and inability to break down Alcala’s defense ultimately cost them the match.

Both teams displayed intense physicality, evidenced by the high foul count, with RSD Alcala committing 19 fouls and Orihuela CF 8. The game's disciplinary proceedings further underscored the aggressive play; Orihuela received four yellow cards and a red card that hampered their ability to mount a sustained comeback. Alcala managed to keep their discipline slightly better, receiving two yellow cards but crucially avoiding any red cards, which helped them maintain a numerical advantage.

RSD Alcala's defensive resilience and effective management of the game's tempo were key factors in their victory. Despite being caught offside three times, compared to Orihuela's once, Alcala’s ability to hold the lead was impressive. Their defensive midfielder played a pivotal role, breaking down Orihuela's advances and transitioning play efficiently. Orihuela's higher corner count and lower foul count suggest they were more disciplined in possession but struggled with penetrating Alcala’s tight defensive setup, ultimately making the difference in this encounter.
