The match started with a tactical change in Granada CF's setup, opting for a three-center-back defense. Despite a good start, the red and white team managed to take the lead after ten minutes, when Alemañ scored from a header by Sergio Ruiz following a throw-in from Lemos.
However, Almería's reaction was swift, capitalizing on two consecutive errors by a Granada CF defender. First, a poorly cleared ball that Arribas converted into a goal, and shortly after, from a corner kick where the same Almería player scored the second goal.
The situation worsened for Granada CF when Almería was awarded a penalty, confirmed by VAR, which Arribas converted, extending their lead. The Granada CF goalkeeper prevented an even larger deficit by saving a shot from Baptistao.
After halftime, Almería maintained their dominance and scored their fourth goal 22 minutes into the second half, courtesy of Miguel, who finished unopposed due to defensive passivity. In stoppage time, Pablo Sáenz managed to score a consolation goal for Granada CF, but the team continues to show worrying inconsistency.
