Futsal Mataró, the clear leader of Group Three of the Segunda División B, defeated Covisa Manresa 5-10 at the El Pujolet pavilion, ending the Manresa side's four-game home winning streak.

The final score of 5-10, considered harsh after the home team's strong performance during the first half, drops Covisa Manresa to the penultimate position in the table, remaining seven points away from the safety threshold marked by Lleida. The visitors, outstanding leaders, had only dropped four points in seventeen matches prior to this encounter.
The local coach, Jairo Molero, started with Blasco, David Lozano, Aaron, Ambrós, and Héctor, unable to rely on the latest signing, Roger Bermusell, or captain Asis and Aleix Pérez. Aaron took the captain's armband and opened the scoring just fifteen seconds in, also netting the 2-3 goal and halting Mataró's initial surge.
The first half was played at extremely high intensity, with five goals scored in the first four minutes. This scenario of constant back-and-forth benefited Mataró, a younger squad accustomed to fast play. The physicality quickly led to foul accumulation; Covisa reached its sixth foul before the ten-minute mark, which led to the visitors' fourth goal. Nevertheless, Aaron and youth player Morros managed to tie the game at four.
A high-quality individual play by Aaron assisted David Lozano to put Covisa ahead again, causing El Pujolet to erupt. Unfortunately, Biel Martí scored the equalizer (5-5) just before halftime. In the second half, Mataró imposed its pressure and capitalized on a Manresa turnover to score the sixth goal. Ultimately, the leader extended the lead with the seventh and eighth goals, clearly dominating the positional play.
Despite the defeat, the losses suffered by Lleida and Sant Quirze, direct rivals in the fight for permanence, keep Covisa Manresa seven points away from the safety zone with eleven matches remaining in the season.
