The visitors maintain a 100% winning record at the start of this Liga F Moeve campaign. Before kick-off, a moving minute's silence was held in memory of Valencia CF Femenino season ticket holders who passed away over the past year. Fifteen minutes into the match, Emilie Holt threaded a pass into the path of Hasnath Ubamba, who unleashed a shot from inside the box to open the scoring at the Antonio Puchades. The second goal was nearly forged by Emilie Holt; the midfielder struck a fierce left-footed effort that Alice Pinguet and the post combined to turn behind for a corner. Meanwhile, Valencia CF had a chance to equalise through a fine strike from Salomé Prat inside the area, but Kate Taylor made a vital goal-line clearance to deny the home forward. The Madrid side continued to press and looked to extend their lead.
A superb through ball from Marina Rivas was nearly capitalised on by Emilie Nautnes, but Alice Pinguet pulled off a magnificent one-handed save to tip the ball over for a corner and neutralise the threat. Persistence paid off just before half-time when the second goal arrived. A brilliant pass from Sakina Ouzraoui was controlled by Marina Rivas inside the box. The midfielder brought the ball down and unleashed a powerful right-footed strike to double the advantage on the scoreboard. The final chance of the first half fell to Danielle Marcano, who tried her luck with a shot from the edge of the box, which Belén de Gracia gathered without difficulty. After the restart, Mikel Crespo made a triple substitution, bringing on Rebecca Elloh, Carol Marín, and Gema Climent as he looked to change the course of the match. The hosts continued to push in search of a goal.
