Ceuta secured a crucial 2-1 victory over Cádiz in what proved to be a tale of two halves at their home ground. The hosts dominated the opening period, taking the lead through Marcos Fernández's 21st-minute strike before a fortunate own goal from Cádiz defender Bojan Kovačević doubled their advantage just after the hour mark. Cádiz showed fighting spirit in the final quarter, with substitute Roger Martí pulling one back just seven minutes after entering the fray, but despite a frantic finish that saw multiple bookings, they couldn't find the equalizer.
