Juvenil “D” approached Matchday 20 determined to continue their excellent run of form against Consolación B, who currently sit fourteenth in the standings. Following their dominant 2–14 away win earlier in the season, the Nervión side once again demonstrated their competitiveness at the Ciudad Deportiva José Ramón Cisneros Palacios.

From the outset, the home side took control of the match, pushing forward with intent in search of the opening goal. Chances came frequently throughout the first half, but a lack of clinical finishing prevented their dominance from being reflected on the scoreboard. Despite their persistence, the teams went into halftime level at 0–0.

After the restart, Juvenil “D” showed greater precision in the final third. In the 49th minute, Raúl Martínez opened the scoring with a brilliant individual effort, unleashing a powerful long-range strike that nestled into the top corner. The goal paved the way for the hosts.

The second goal arrived in the 65th minute through Alejandro Piña, the league’s top scorer, who once again showcased his goal-scoring instincts to extend the Nervión side’s lead.

The team increased their advantage in the 74th minute following an outstanding team move that left Raúl Martínez in a clear position to secure his brace. In the closing stages, in the 89th minute, Salva Ballesta sealed the 4–0 victory with a precise finish inside the box.

Beyond the result, the match was marked by a special moment at full time. The team gave an emotional farewell to forward Salva Ballesta, who is set to begin a new chapter after signing for UD Melilla to compete in the División de Honor Juvenil. Teammates and coaching staff shared words of appreciation for his commitment and dedication, wishing him every success in this new sporting challenge.

The squad also made a special gesture for Fran Correa, who recently underwent surgery for an injury, showing their support and sending him best wishes for a speedy recovery. Once again, the group demonstrated the unity and camaraderie that define the dressing room.

With this victory, Juvenil “D” extend their unbeaten run, record another clean sheet, and reaffirm their position as the league’s strongest defensive side, having conceded just 12 goals while scoring an impressive 102. A record that reflects the balance, ambition, and consistency of the squad.
