CE L'Hospitalet suffered their eighth defeat of the season this February 14th in Vilanova i la Geltrú, marking a disappointing start for new manager Sergio Juste.

The home side took an early lead in Garraf when Derek Cuevas scored in the 10th minute. L'Hospitalet responded well, with Ignasi Quer finding the equalizer to bring the score to 1-1.
However, Fran Grimà scored for Vilanova just before the halftime whistle, making it 2-1. Despite a strong push in the second half, including a free kick by Joel Lasso that hit the post, the visitors could not find a second goal.
With only 12 matches remaining in the season, Vilanova moves ahead of Hospi in the standings, leaving the promotion contenders struggling for consistency.
