Despite Granada's superior shot accuracy (50% compared to Castellón's 27%) and creating more shots on target, they couldn't capitalize on their chances until Jorge Pascual's penalty reduced the deficit. The victory represents a significant boost for Castellón's promotion ambitions, while Granada's wastefulness in front of goal - missing several big chances according to the statistics - continues to hamper their campaign.
