CD Arnedo 3-2 Oyonesa – In a pulsating encounter that kept fans on the edge of their seats until the final whistle, CD Arnedo edged past Oyonesa 3-2 in a match that had everything: early drama, a stunning comeback, and a late winner. Played under the floodlights at the Estadio Municipal de Arnedo, this result could prove pivotal in the Tercera Federación playoff race.

Match Overview

From the opening minutes, both sides showed attacking intent. Oyonesa started brightly, moving the ball swiftly through midfield and forcing Arnedo goalkeeper Javier López into an early save. However, it was the home side who struck first in the 12th minute, when midfielder Álvaro Ruiz latched onto a defence-splitting pass and fired low past the Oyonesa keeper.

Oyonesa responded with purpose. Their pressure paid off just before the half-hour mark when a corner kick was met by centre‑back Marcos Iglesias, who powered a header into the net to level the score. The visitors then turned the game on its head in the 38th minute: winger Pablo Herrera cut inside from the left and unleashed a curling shot that nestled into the top corner, making it 2-1 to Oyonesa at the break.
