Match Report

The home side, San Sebastián de los Reyes, started brightly and took the lead in the 34th minute with a well-placed header from a corner. Alcoyano, known for their organised defence and quick transitions, equalised just after the hour mark. A defensive mix-up allowed Alcoyano’s striker to poke home from close range, silencing the home crowd.

Tactical Battle

Both managers set up cautiously, with midfield battles dominating the play. San Sebastián de los Reyes enjoyed more possession but struggled to break down a resilient Alcoyano backline. The visitors, meanwhile, relied on counter-attacks and set pieces, and their equaliser came from exactly that – a set-piece situation that wasn’t cleared properly.

What the Result Means

The draw leaves both teams in mid-table, with neither side able to gain momentum in their push for a playoff spot. For San Sebastián de los Reyes, it was a missed opportunity to close the gap on the top six, while Alcoyano will be satisfied with a point on the road.
