The dream of Málaga CF Femenino to achieve promotion came to an end after a 2-1 defeat against Real Sociedad B in the second leg of the play-off, held in Zubieta. The Málaga team, which had secured a goalless draw in the first leg at La Academia, could not maintain their initial lead.
The blue and white squad had worked hard to reach this promotion phase, hoping to restore women's football in Málaga to a more prominent position. However, the semifinal took an unfortunate turn despite having gone ahead on the scoreboard.
The first goal of the match came at the beginning of the second half, in the 48th minute, from a set piece. A free-kick taken by Andrea Ríos was capitalized on by Futu, giving Málaga CF the lead. The response from the Donostia team was swift, and in the 64th minute, Esteberena scored the equalizer, making it 1-1, a scoreline that held until the end of regular time.
Extra time proved decisive. In the second half of the added period, Real Sociedad B delivered the final blow. Echeverría scored the goal that sealed the tie just minutes before the end, following an earlier save by the home goalkeeper from a shot by Yessenia. Thus, Málaga CF Femenino concludes its season in a cruel manner.
