4 – 2
“Hugo Lopez broke the deadlock just four minutes into the second half, converting a right-footed effort assisted by Hugo Solozábal to give FC Andorra the lead they had been threatening throughout.”
Pivotal“Hugo Lopez struck again just three minutes later, this time assisted by Moro Sidibé, doubling Andorra's advantage and seemingly putting the match beyond Celta Fortuna.”
Pivotal“Álvaro Marín pulled one back for Celta Fortuna with three minutes remaining, assisted by Frank Germain and Jonathan Miller, reigniting a match that had seemed dead and buried and setting the stage for a frantic finale.”
Pivotal“Álvaro Marín completed a personal brace in stoppage time to put Celta ahead 3-2, before Andrés Antañón added a fourth seconds later to seal a stunning, almost incomprehensible comeback from a 1-3 deficit.”

Outstanding performance
FC Andorra•AttackerFC Andorra dominated this match from start to finish on paper — 64% possession, 16 shots to Celta Fortuna's 10, and 42 dangerous attacks to the home side's 16 — yet somehow left Galicia with nothing. Hugo Lopez gave the visitors a dream start, netting twice in three minutes just after the break to put Andorra firmly in the driver's seat, and when an unfortunate Hugo Cuenca own goal made it 1-3 in the 74th minute, the points looked sewn up. Celta's coaching staff threw caution to the wind with a triple substitution at the hour mark, and it was those fresh legs, particularly Álvaro Marín, who changed the game entirely. Marín pulled one back in the 87th minute then levelled in stoppage time before Andrés Antañón completed a stunning three-goal swing in the 90th minute, turning what should have been a comfortable Andorra win into a 4-2 defeat. For Andorra, the manner of this collapse — squandering big chances, conceding four times while missing four big chances of their own — will sting; for Celta Fortuna, the clinical ruthlessness of their substitute-inspired comeback underlines their promotion credentials despite rarely controlling matches.
