Real Sociedad II
Mallorca
Mallorca controlled the game territorially, dominating possession at 60% and racking up 52 dangerous attacks to Sociedad II's 28, and that pressure eventually told through Adrián Fuentes' 81st-minute winner. The home side actually matched their opponents for shots and edged the corner count, showing they were far from passive, but their inability to convert possession into clear cutting-through moments proved costly. Both benches emptied late as the match turned into a war of attrition, with a flurry of five substitutions between the 63rd and 73rd minute reshaping both sides before the decisive breakthrough. For Real Sociedad II, mid-table and modest form heading in, this is a frustrating home defeat against a Mallorca side with greater prestige and title ambitions who found a way to grind out the three points.
