CD Azuaga delivered one of the most emphatic performances of the Spanish Tercera División RFEF weekend, dismantling Guadiana 4-0 at the Estadio Municipal de Azuaga on Sunday, October 4, 2026. The home side scored twice in each half, controlled possession from the opening whistle and turned a competitive early exchange into a one-sided victory that will strengthen their position in the league standings.

Match overview

Playing in front of their own supporters in a 18:15 kickoff, Azuaga set the tone almost immediately. They pressed high, moved the ball quickly through midfield and forced Guadiana into a series of hurried clearances. Guadiana initially tried to stay compact and spring counterattacks through the channels, but once Azuaga scored the opening goal, the visitors struggle to maintain their shape.

By the interval, Azuaga had a two-goal cushion and complete control of the match. The second half followed a similar pattern: Azuaga kept the tempo high, Guadiana dropped deeper and the home team added two more goals to complete a convincing 4-0 win. It was the kind of scoreline that reflects not only attacking quality but also the gap in confidence between the two sides on the day.

Key moments

• 12th minute: Azuaga opened the scoring through striker Álvaro Paredes, who latched onto a through ball and finished calmly past the Guadiana goalkeeper.
• 34th minute: Paredes doubled his tally and Azuaga’s lead, converting from close range after a driven cross from the right.
• 57th minute: Winger Manuel Cordero made it 3-0 with a low shot from the edge of the box after Guadiana failed to clear a corner.
• 79th minute: Substitute Rubén Dávila completed the scoring, racing onto a pass over the top and slotting the ball into the far corner.

Tactical story

Azuaga’s 4-0 victory was built on aggressive pressing and quick transitions. Their midfield trio constantly won second balls, allowing the full-backs to push high and create overloads in wide areas. Guadiana tried to defend with a deep block, but the constant pressure meant they rarely managed to string together more than two or three passes in the attacking half.

The home side also showed excellent game management. With a comfortable lead, they did not simply sit back; they kept possession, rotated the ball from side to side and forced Guadiana to chase. That patience eventually opened more space, and the late fourth goal was a fair reward for their dominance.

Standout players

Álvaro Paredes was the clear man of the match, scoring twice and leading the line with intelligent movement. Manuel Cordero was a constant threat on the flank, while midfielder Pablo Reyes controlled the rhythm of the game. For Guadiana, goalkeeper Andrés Peña made several saves to keep the score from becoming even more lopsided, but he was left exposed by his defence far too often.

What the result means

The three points lift CD Azuaga in the Tercera División RFEF table and give them momentum for the coming weeks. A 4-0 home win is also a strong statement of intent, especially in a division where goal difference can matter at the end of the season. Guadiana, meanwhile, will need to regroup quickly. Conceding four goals on the road highlights the defensive issues they must address if they are to climb away from the lower reaches of the standings.
