Reus FC Reddis lost 2-3 against Castellón B at the Municipal stadium in Reus on Sunday, following a poor performance marked by serious defensive errors that nullified Kenneth Soler's brace.

The red-and-black team of Reus FC Reddis stumbled against Castellón B in a match defined by mistakes in ball distribution from the back. Despite this, Reus started strongly. Early on, Benito capitalized on a through ball, and shortly after, Kenneth Soler opened the scoring (1-0) by heading a cross from Jaime, even though the ball hit the crossbar before crossing the line.

With the ease of the early chances and the 1-0 lead, it seemed the match was going their way, but things quickly started to go wrong.

After the early goal, Reus lost momentum and Castellón B grew into the game. The home side became disconnected, with attacking plays often failing during creation. The visiting reserve team capitalized: following a shot by Ismael that hit the crossbar, Terma was alert to collect the rebound and score the 1-1 equalizer, with no reaction from the Reus defense.
After the break, Carrasco's team came out more motivated, with Toscano hitting the post and goalkeeper Torner saving a shot from Vaz. The visiting defensive fragility reappeared, allowing Kenneth Soler to steal the ball and face Torner one-on-one to score the 2-1, momentarily restoring calm.
However, Reus retreated again, and Castellón pressed for the equalizer. A cross into the box was converted by Santamaría for the 2-2. The collapse was completed by another error in ball distribution, which allowed Terma to force a penalty, converted by Segura for the final 2-3. The match ended with Reus playing 'more with heart than with head' on a chilly Sunday afternoon.
