Igualada Rigat HC has lost its lead in the OkLiga standings after securing only two points from their last two matches against Pons Lleida and Sant Just, falling to third place.

At their home rink in Les Comes, the team failed to maintain a 3-0 lead established by Roger Bars, Miguel Cañadillas, and Àlex Cardil. Pons Lleida fought back to lead 3-4, before Cardil managed to equalize late in the game to secure a 4-4 draw.
On Sunday, Marc Muntané's side faced a similar scenario away at Sant Just. Despite leading 0-2 through Joan Ruano and Biel Llanes, the team could not close out the match. Sant Just capitalized on set pieces to level the score at 2-2 with five minutes remaining.
