Despite their ball dominance, San Roque struggled to create goal opportunities. The first visitor’s shot came in the 53rd minute, which Lejárraga managed to save in a great reflex action.

Marbella FC’s Second Goal

The action for the second goal began with a great triangle pass from Marco Tulio to Aitor Puñal, who touched it first for Dago, who resolved it with great quality in a one-on-one to put the score at 2-0. The match seemed under control, and San Roque was forced to go all out, introducing three players at once in the 65th minute.

San Roque’s Goal

San Roque didn’t have to wait long to celebrate a goal. A good defensive action from Ohemeng ended with a poor pass from the Marbella player, leaving the ball open for Abreu, who shot a cross from the edge of the area to score 2-1.
