A vital match for the home team's aspirations, who lacked a bit of bite against a direct rival for survival, who settled the match at the end of regulation time.
Mequinenza and Chiprana faced off in Las Rías in a crucial match for the future of both teams, tied on points and in the relegation zone of the Preferente Regional league. The home side lacked a cutting edge and a cutting edge, and the game ultimately tipped in favor of the visitors in the dying moments thanks to a goal scored just before stoppage time. With this defeat, the home team's chances of avoiding relegation are now significantly jeopardized with only five matches remaining in the season.
In the first 45 minutes, chances were shared at both ends, with Mequinenza registering more shots on target than their opponents, though without much success. The home side tried to capitalize on the visiting goalkeeper's somewhat shaky performance, but to no avail. Silviu had the best opportunity for the visitors, a move down the right flank that ended with his shot crashing against the crossbar of Leyk's goal.
Things took a turn for the worse for the home side in the second half, with the visitors gradually gaining control of possession and making it difficult for the hosts to play out from the back. Despite the substitutions, the home team seemed to have retreated. As a result of this dominance by Chiprana, and following a turnover, Salah, who had just entered the game, forced Djiby into action. Djiby initially saved a one-on-one with the striker, but the defense ultimately thwarted the dangerous attack.
The Chiprana striker became the man of the match, securing the victory for the visitors with a goal in stoppage time. He capitalized on a through ball, chipping it over the onrushing Djiby, who could do little to stop it. Mequinenza tried to equalize in stoppage time, but the score remained unchanged. At the final whistle, the home side looked dejected, aware that they had missed an opportunity to move closer to safety.
