The match began disastrously for Barça Atlètic when defender Mbacke turned the ball into his own net just four minutes in, following a cross from Celta's Gavián. However, the visitors responded quickly, with Cedric heading in an equalizer from a Jofre cross in the 12th minute.
Despite the level scoreline, Celta Fortuna began to assert control. Their efforts paid off in the 39th minute when Óscar Marcos finished off a well-worked move involving Joel López and Hugo González with a superb strike into the top corner, restoring Celta's lead before halftime.
The second half started poorly for Barça Atlètic. A defensive mix-up involving Rubén López and Mbacke allowed Hugo González to score Celta's third goal just a minute after the restart (46'), effectively sealing the game.
Barça Atlètic attempted to fight back, and even had two goals disallowed – one for offside (Cortés) and another for handball (Guillermo Fernàndez) – but couldn't breach the Celta defence again. Celta had chances to extend their lead, notably hitting the post through Miguel Román late in the game. A small positive for Barça Atlètic was the return of Dani Rodríguez from injury as a late substitute.
Despite the loss, Barça Atlètic showed moments of fight. Can they turn their season around and avoid relegation? Let us know your thoughts!
