On 7 June 2026, Benidorm CD suffered a heavy home defeat at the hands of FC Torrevieja in a Spanish regional league match. The final score of 1‑3 reflected Torrevieja’s superiority as they controlled large portions of the game and capitalised on Benidorm’s defensive errors.
First‑Half Story: Torrevieja Strike Twice
Torrevieja started brightly and took the lead in the 12th minute when their striker latched onto a long ball and finished calmly past the Benidorm keeper.

Benidorm struggled to create clear chances, with their only real opportunity coming from a long‑range effort that sailed over the bar.
Second‑Half Drama: Benidorm Pull One Back, but Torrevieja Seal Win
Benidorm came out with more urgency after the break and pulled a goal back in the 52nd minute. A free‑kick was whipped into the box, and after a scramble, the ball fell to a Benidorm forward who stabbed it home from close range. The goal lifted the home crowd, but Torrevieja quickly regained control. In the 68th minute, a swift counter‑attack caught Benidorm out of shape, and Torrevieja’s winger made no mistake, firing a low shot into the far corner to restore the two‑goal cushion.
Benidorm pushed forward in the final stages but were unable to breach the Torrevieja defence again. The away side managed the game professionally, running down the clock and limiting Benidorm to half‑chances. The result keeps Torrevieja in contention for a top‑three finish in the regional league, while Benidorm remain in the lower half of the table, needing to improve their defensive organisation in the coming matches.
