Defeat persisted despite a fierce contest as Alcoyano adjusted their league schedule for a trip to Nuevo Colombino to face Recreativo de Huelva. The home crowd in Parras had hoped for a different outcome after the match was postponed due to the storm, yet their team pushed hard until the final whistle without securing a result.

bold start
Alcoyano began with intent, trying to impose tempo on the hosts from Huelva. Lara came closest early, pressing Rubén Gálvez near the goal line. The local defense gradually gained ground and by the eighth minute Valens saw the ball hit the back of the net, only for the strike to be ruled out for offside. Two minutes later Domínguez delivered a long range set piece that surprised Valens as it dipped and skipped past him, only to miss the target.
Reaction
Alcoyano sought an immediate reply, but Recreativo seized the advantage through a sharp move by Mikel Pradera that culminated in a corner. Recreativo also looked dangerous again before the half hour mark when Valens blocked Del Pozo’s shot by sheer luck. Alcoyano remained hungry for balance but found chances scarce. After the break, Parras introduced Sergi García and López, and one of them would become the first to threaten the ledger after the restart.

Latest options
Alcoyano did not penetrate Recreativo’s defensive lines deeply, registering just a single goal opportunity. Vicente Parras shuffled the lineup from the bench in search of a spark, but the hosts stacked their half with players and pressed relentlessly. The visitors battled to create openings, yet Juanan, isolated with his back to goal, could not convert on his own as Nieto’s cross from the left offered the most tangible threat. The match concluded with a foul in Alcoyano’s half, and Recreativo held on to secure the three points despite a late push from the visitors.
