A magnificent victory for Granada CF on their visit to Palamós. The first warning was for the Andalusian side. Manoly Baquerizo delivered a cross into the heart of the area which Andrea Gómez headed home from inside the box. The striker's header went wide, just grazing the post. The second time proved to be the charm. In the 18th minute, Laura Pérez unleashed a low delivery that Lauri Requena finished first-time to beat María Valenzuela and break the deadlock. The captain of the Nazarí side was named MVP of the match. The Catalan team's problems piled up, as well as conceding a goal, they also suffered the injury of Nerea Carmona twenty minutes into the game. French player Celya Barclais came on in her place. Irine Uribe wasn't quite sharp enough in attack. The complete opposite of Sonya Keefe, who scored the second.
The Chilean forward received a good pass from inside the area from Andrea Gómez to double the advantage on the scoreboard near the half-hour mark. Granada CF continued to press, and María Valenzuela flew again to save a thunderous strike from mid-distance by Lauri Requena. With the score at 0-2, the match went into half-time. After the break, Marc Ballester moved his bench with the introduction of Lice Chamorro and Elena Julve with the aim of generating more attacking danger. The first chance of the second half fell to the Catalan club. Lorena Navarro unleashed a left-footed shot from the edge of the box which a confident Laura Sánchez saved without much trouble. The home team's hopes of a comeback faded with half an hour left thanks to Laura Pérez's goal with a shot across goal from inside the area.
Once again, Lauri Requena turned provider to find her teammate, who made no mistake against María Valenzuela. Marc Ballester continued to try his luck with the introduction of Loreta Kullashi. Precisely, the Swedish forward attempted a shot from inside the box which Laura Sánchez saved with a spectacular intervention. The goalkeeper stood tall to prevent the goal and keep a clean sheet. Both coaches made changes, and Granada CF sealed the duel in added time. Laura Pérez threaded a ball through to Andrea Gómez, who gifted the goal to the Nazarí number '7', leaving her with just a simple tap-in into the back of the net. With this victory, the Andalusian side moves up to 7th position in Liga F Moeve, while the Catalan club is already thinking about the Copa de la Reina semi-final second leg.
