Match Overview

Standout Players

• Algeciras: The goalkeeper made three crucial saves, including one from a deflected shot, and commanded his area.
• Sanluqueño: The left‑midfielder worked tirelessly but was forced into defensive duties and rarely threatened the Algeciras goal.

Impact on the Standings
