The home side managed to overcome an early 0-2 deficit, driven by a stellar performance from their key striker, who scored three of the team's four goals. The match, characterized by high intensity and strong support from the local fans, was decided in the final moments following a numerical advantage gained after a visiting player was sent off.
Although Mengíbar, the Group 5 champions, demonstrated their usual efficiency, the Jerez team maintained defensive discipline and capitalized on quick transitions. The game remained tightly contested until the final 13 seconds, when the decisive goal was scored, giving the hosts a slight edge.
The tie will be decided next Saturday in Jaén. The Jerez squad will head into the match knowing that either a win or a draw will be enough to secure their place in the second tier of Spanish futsal.
