Despite the defeat, the result was inconsequential for the Terrassa-based team, as they had already secured their permanence in the category a week prior. The match, played under heavy rain, saw San Cristóbal with more ball possession and initiative, but lacking the necessary depth and accuracy in the final meters to convert opportunities.
CE Manresa opened the scoring in the 27th minute with a header from Roger, following a corner kick. Earlier, San Cristóbal's goalkeeper, Tapia, had prevented the first goal in a one-on-one situation. In the second half, Manresa sealed the victory in the 84th minute with a long-range goal from Joel, who had come on as a substitute.
With this outcome, San Cristóbal closes a season that has seen fluctuating performance and sensations, but ultimately achieved its primary goal of remaining in the Third Federation for the ninth consecutive season.
