The significant victory of Reus FC Reddis against Barça Atlètic (4-1) confirms the red-and-black team as a clear candidate for the top spots in the Segunda RFEF classification. The match started perfectly for the hosts with an early goal from Kenneth Soler in the 5th minute, who capitalized on a cross from Miquel Ustrell.
Following the initial goal, Reus coach Marc Carrasco implemented a high-pressure strategy using a double strike force (Soler and Ustrell) and an advanced defensive line to prevent the young Barça Atlètic players from operating between the lines. This tactic was crucial in maintaining the lead until halftime.
The second half began with Reus showing great effectiveness. In the 48th minute, Ustrell doubled the lead with a header from a corner kick, assisted by Xavi Jaime. Although Shane Kluivert pulled one back for the visitors in the 51st minute in a controversial play, Reus quickly regained control.
The prestigious victory places Marc Carrasco's men in second place in the standings, four points ahead of their direct rival.
A handball by Mbacke inside the box led to a penalty, which Ricardo Vaz converted in the 78th minute, making it 3-1. With Barça Atlètic reduced to ten men after Roger's expulsion, Pol Fernández sealed the rout in the 95th minute. The final moments were marred by a confrontation between the two benches, resulting in the expulsion of coach Marc Carrasco.
