In a closely contested match between UD Almeria B and Orihuela CF, the home side managed a narrow victory, ending the game 1-0. The decisive moment came in the second half when Almeria B scored just over an hour into the game. Despite the lack of corner kicks in their favor, Almeria B capitalized on their limited opportunities, showcasing a clinical edge lacking in their opponents. Meanwhile, Orihuela CF dominated attempts from set-pieces with eight corners yet failed to convert any into equalizing opportunities, reflecting issues in their final delivery or execution in front of the goal.

The discipline and defensive resilience displayed by UD Almeria B were paramount, as noted by Orihuela CF’s inability to break through despite their set-piece advantages. Almeria B's ability to manage and neutralize threats is particularly commendable, especially with two yellow cards hinting at intense defensive engagements without crossing into reckless territory, as evidenced by the absence of any red cards. On the flip side, Orihuela CF's task was made more challenging by their discipline, keeping their sheet clean of bookings, but ultimately, their lack of cutting edge in front of goal proved costly.

Both teams demonstrated a variation in time and play structure; notable was Orihuela’s struggle to capitalize on possession, shown by their offside rates being comparatively lower, suggesting potential conservatism or lack of effective forward movement. This hesitance arguably limited their attacking potential. Almeria B, despite fewer set-piece opportunities, showed a higher degree of tactical efficiency in both defensive and attacking phases. Their positioning and readiness to exploit transition moments were likely a critical success factor in securing the win despite the statistical disadvantage in corner kicks.
