Juvenil “D” open the second half of the season with a hard-fought victory

fter completing an excellent first half of the season, Juvenil “D” began the second round of league fixtures facing Pablo VI, a team occupying sixth place in the table. In the previous meeting between the two sides, the Nervión-based team had claimed a 3–1 away victory.

The side coached by Rafa Ortega enjoyed a strong first half, displaying composure in possession and creating several scoring opportunities. Their dominance earned them a penalty, which was ultimately saved by the opposing goalkeeper. As the half progressed, the visitors grew into the game and began to threaten the Sevilla goal on several occasions.

In the 29th minute, Raúl Martínez gave Juvenil “D” the lead, finishing a well-worked attacking move to make it 1–0. Before the break, the home side continued to push forward and came close to extending their advantage, most notably through Estefan Mario, whose effort just before half-time narrowly cleared the crossbar.

After the restart, the match became more evenly balanced, with few clear chances at either end. Daniel Morilla played a key role by producing an outstanding one-on-one save to preserve the lead. However, minutes later, the visitors drew level after capitalising on a defensive rebound.

The decisive moment arrived in the closing stages when Salva Ballesta scored the winning goal, finishing from close range after a brilliant move by Raúl Martínez, who provided the assist to secure the three points.

With this result, Juvenil “D” begin the second half of the season with a positive result, once again demonstrating their ability to prevail in tightly contested matches.
