The away team suffered two major setbacks within the first twenty minutes. The opening goal came in the 13th minute when Dani Ruiz exploited a gap behind Pujol to beat goalkeeper Rebollo. Shortly after, in the 18th minute, a defensive error allowed Quintana to double the lead for the hosts.
Despite Eldense's dominance, Nàstic attempted to respond through Marcos Baselga, who had several clear chances. The striker had a goal disallowed for offside in the 38th minute and saw his efforts blocked by a solid local defense.

Local goalkeeper Vila also played a key role, making a great save from a Jardí strike. Parralo's men will need a significant turnaround in the second half to avoid a defeat that keeps them near the relegation zone.
