The FC Barcelona secured a victory on their visit to the always challenging Costa Adeje Tenerife (1-3), while Real Madrid took revenge on an Atlético side that had won the first leg but succumbed 1-0 this Sunday.
Although Madrid C.F.F. still has to face Sevilla, the penultimate round of Liga F already offers a clear picture. Alhama said goodbye to the top tier of Spanish football after DUX Logroño’s triumph over Levante (1-4) and their own defeat in Eibar (2-0).
Before those matches, Real Sociedad continued their fantastic season by thrashing a Granada side that played with a numerical disadvantage for the last quarter of an hour (3-0). Additionally, Espanyol and Levante Badalona shared points in another regional derby, while Dépor secured a win in Bilbao (0-1).
Real Madrid emerged victorious against an Atlético that failed to respond to Weir’s goal after 25 minutes of a fairly even contest. The match was marked by perfect balance in possession (50%-50%), with Atlético taking four more shots (13-17) and only one more on target. However, the visitors left without a single corner kick.
Pere Romeu’s side had no easy task in the Canary Islands. Argentina’s Paulina Gramaglia put the home team ahead in the first half. Then, Violeta Quiles was sent off with a straight red card, and Barça equalized through Esmee Brugts just before halftime. These two developments paved the way for second-half goals from Kika Nazareth and Claudia Pina.
