UE Tàrrega earned three golden points by defeating Juventud 25 de Septiembre 1-2, a result that brings them closer to permanence in Primera Catalana, despite remaining in the relegation zone.

The Urgell team secured a fundamental away victory, placing them with 32 points, the same as Santboià, which marks the safety zone. To ensure their continuity in the category, Tàrrega will need to win at home against Ascó, currently sixth, on the final matchday and hope that other results are favorable.
The match in Rubí started promisingly for the visitors, who took the lead in the 7th minute with a goal from Vargas. However, Juventud 25 de Septiembre quickly reacted and equalized in the 17th minute with a goal from Fernández. In the second half, Tàrrega regained the lead with a goal from Selva in the 56th minute, which proved decisive in securing the win and keeping their dream of permanence alive.
Meanwhile, Borges, whose relegation to Segunda Catalana had already been confirmed the previous Saturday, lost 2-1 to Pirinaica. The team from Les Garrigues took the lead in the 28th minute with a goal from Llorenç Tribó, but could not maintain their advantage. Altimira equalized in the 78th minute, and Djibo sealed the match in the 89th minute with the definitive 2-1. With one matchday remaining in the league, Borges is in fourteenth position with 22 points, one more than their next opponent, Sants.
