Saturday 29 August, 12:00 CEST: Deportivo Abanca 0 - Sevilla FC 1 (DAZN, Teledeporte and RTVE Play)
Sevilla FC took all three points back from the Estadio de Riazor. The match's first chance fell to Raquel Morcillo, whose shot was comfortably gathered by Tarazona. Xenia Barrios also tried her luck, but it was Fatou Kanteh who broke the deadlock with a header, scoring the very first goal of the Liga F Moeve season. The Galician side looked for an immediate response through Lucía Rivas, though without success. Olaya Rodríguez had a golden opportunity, but the Asturian forward was denied by a magnificent save from Esther Sullastres, who was named player of the match. After the interval, Michi Apóstol came on for the hosts. The crossbar denied Gemma Gili, while Xenia Barrios fired wide as she searched for a second. Lucía Pardo tried time and time again to find the back of the net. Indeed, the striker had a great chance but lacked clinical finishing. Despite the hosts' persistent pressure in search of an equaliser, the scoreline remained unchanged.

At the same time, Logroño United kicked off their campaign with a hard-fought victory in Zubieta. María Barquero had the opening chance of the encounter, but her effort sailed over the bar. Isina also posed a threat, but the Asturian failed to hit the target. Ava Seelenfreund came close to making a scoring debut for Real Sociedad, but her shot flew wide. Despite late chances for both sides, the deadlock remained unbroken at half-time. After the restart, Nerea Eizagirre tested a confident Miralles with a strike that the goalkeeper dealt with easily. Moraza also went close to scoring, but it was Flavine Mawete who turned in a precise low cross from Catalina Ongaro to open the scoring. The African winger was named player of the match. The 0-2 sealing goal bore the signature of Cristina Redondo, who capitalised on a superb pass from Ximena Velazco to round Julia Arrula and definitively put the match to bed.
Saturday 29 August, 17:00 CEST: SD Eibar 1 - RCD Espanyol 0 (DAZN, 3Cat and RTVE Play)
An intensely contested affair at the Estadio de Ipurua. Ona Baradad created the match's first opening with a delivery that was cleared by the home defence. At the other end, an industrious Carmen Álvarez also went in search of the opener. Emma Moreno caused problems for the visitors, while the hosts remained rock-solid at the back thanks to an imperious Alimata Bélem. In the second half, Ángeles del Álamo entered the fray for the home side, while Sara Monforte made a triple substitution, introducing Natalia Escot, Anita Marcos and Ariadna Doménech. For the visitors, Browne tried to spark some attacking impetus, but the goal still wouldn't come. Cristina Baudet also went looking for that elusive strike, but the Basque defence stood firm. Then, in the dying seconds of the match, Meritxell Muñoz failed to claim a corner kick, and Alimata Bélem—named player of the match—pounced on the loose ball to fire it into the back of the net and settle the contest.
Saturday 29 August, 21:00 CEST: Madrid CFF 3 - Granada CF 1 (DAZN)
Saturday's action wrapped up at the Estadio Fernando Torres, where the hosts claimed all three points. Just twelve minutes in, Alba Ibáñez failed to hold onto a corner delivery, and Sakina Ouzraoui reacted quickest to the rebound. The forward, named player of the match, broke the deadlock. Moments later, Kate Taylor glanced a header home from an Ana González free-kick to double the advantage. Granada CF tried to find a way back through Welma Fon and Leles Carrión, but neither could find their range. After the break, Débora Bebê and María Aymerich came on for the hosts, while Blanca Muñoz replaced Raquel Gil for the Andalusian club. Vera Molina came close to reducing the deficit, but Belén de Gracia pulled off a crucial save. Ailing Herrera made no such mistake on the counter-attack. The final 3-1 scoreline was rounded off by Elene Guridi, who polished off the result by converting a pass from Daniela Miñambres after she drove to the byline.
Sunday 30 August, 12:00 CEST: Athletic Club 3 - FC Badalona Women 1 (DAZN, 3Cat, Esport3 and RTVE Play)
Sunday's matches got underway in Lezama. Athletic Club's players took to the pitch wearing shirts in support of Leire Baños, who suffered an ACL injury in pre-season. Thirteen minutes into the game, Irina Uribe opened the scoring after latching onto a fantastic long pass from Sonia Majarín. Right before half-time, a throw-in fell to Maite Valero, who cleverly flicked the ball on with her heel for Clara Pinedo—voted player of the match—to fire home the equaliser. In the second half, María Llompart was introduced by the Catalan side. Lucía Martínez had the first chance of the restart, but Nanclares denied her. Ane Campos responded with a long-range effort. Eventually, Víctor Martín's tactical changes paid off as Ane Azkona scored to complete the comeback for her side. The Bilbao outfit rounded off the victory through Jone Amezaga, who cleverly chipped the visiting goalkeeper to seal the result.
Sunday 30 August, 17:00 CEST: Deportivo Alavés 2 - Valencia CF 0 (DAZN)
The clash between the two promoted sides went the way of Deportivo Alavés. Carmen Sobrón had the first opening of the match, though without success. Ainhoa Guallar also went close, but it was Kumba Brima who broke the deadlock twenty minutes in with a stunning strike that caught Alice Pinguet off guard. The visitors tried to mount a response through Salomé Prat, but the winger could not find the target. After the interval, Valencia CF tried to step up the pressure, but the Vitoria defence remained impenetrable. Lucía Moral 'WIFI' came close to equalising with a shot that cleared the crossbar. With the visitors committing bodies forward in search of an equaliser, a turnover by Amanda Mbadi allowed Andrea Gómez to slide a pass behind the opposition backline. Ainhoa Guallar—named player of the match—collected the ball, lifted a delicate lob over Alice Pinguet, and sparked jubilant celebrations in the Mendizorroza stands as the fans revelled in their team's triumph.
Sunday 30 August, 19:00 CEST: FC Barcelona 5 - Costa Adeje Tenerife 0 (DAZN, Teledeporte, TV3, 3Cat and RTVE Play)
A masterclass in finishing from FC Barcelona as they kicked off their league campaign in style. Academy product Lúa Arufe was named in the starting XI. Noelia Ramos thwarted the initial danger from the Catalan giants, pulling off a fine save from Vicky López's close-range effort inside the box. The Tenerife defensive wall held firm for half an hour, until Claudia Pina slipped a perfectly weighted pass through to Graham Hansen, who opened the scoring. Right before the break, Claudia Pina—named player of the match—extended her team's lead with a strike from the edge of the area. Right at the start of the second half, Ewa Pajor turned in a great delivery from Graham Hansen to bag the third. New signing Renee van Asten joined in on the party for the hosts. The final 5-0 scoreline was wrapped up by Irene Paredes, who headed home a corner from Graham Hansen. Costa Adeje Tenerife pushed forward in search of a consolation goal in the closing stages, but failed to alter the scoreline.
Sunday 30 August, 21:00 CEST: Real Madrid CF 3 - Atlético de Madrid 2 (DAZN)
The weekend drew to a close at the Alfredo Di Stéfano with the Madrid derby. Lotte Keukelaar had the first chance of the match with a powerful strike that flew over the bar. The Dutch winger then produced a brilliant piece of skill to set up Felicia Schröder, who fired home the opener. Fifteen minutes in, Sandie Toletti doubled the lead with a direct corner kick (an *gol olímpico*). The visitors looked for a response and found their breakthrough through Synne Jensen, who capitalised on a pass from Fiamma Benítez. However, Schröder struck again to net her brace and restore the hosts' two-goal cushion. That lead was halved once more right before the break courtesy of another goal from Synne Jensen. In the second half, Schröder was sent off after receiving a second yellow card. The *rojiblancas* pushed for an equaliser, but they too were reduced to ten players following the dismissal of Gio Garbelini. The final chance fell to Lola Gallardo, who came up for a last-minute corner, but without success.
