The Segunda División, Spain's second tier of football, has been highly competitive this season, with several teams vying for promotion to the top flight. FC Andorra, with their home advantage, were looking to capitalize on their familiar surroundings to garner crucial points. However, AD Ceuta FC had other plans, displaying a resilient performance that ultimately led to their victory. The away team's strategy and execution on the pitch were spot on, allowing them to outmaneuver their hosts and secure a vital win.
FC Andorra, lining up in a 3-4-1-2 formation, started with Kevin Ratti, Álex Petxarroman, and Gael Alonso at the back, aiming to provide a solid defensive base. Marti Vila, Thomas Carrique, Efe Akman, and Marc Domenech formed the midfield, with Alex Calvo playing behind the strike duo of Daniel Villahermosa and Marc Cardona, who were supported by Josep Cerdà.

AD Ceuta FC, on the other hand, adopted a 4-3-3 formation, with Pedro López in goal, protected by a defensive line of Aisar Ahmed, Albert Caparrós, Yago Cantero, and Diego González. Marino Illescas, Josema, and Anuar marshaled the midfield, while Aboubacar Bassinga, Kuki Zalazar, and Arick Betancourt led the attack. This setup allowed AD Ceuta FC to control large portions of the game, dictating the pace and creating scoring opportunities that they capitalized on to secure their 2-0 win.
The Estadi de la FAF, FC Andorra's home ground, was the venue for this encounter, but the home team's fans were left disappointed as their side failed to muster a response to AD Ceuta FC's goals.
