2-0: UD Almería Women suffer first defeat of season in Melilla
The Rojiblancas lost the last game of 2025 but stay top, facing a complicated promotion battle
UD Almería Women suffered their first defeat of the season, losing 2-0 to Melilla in the final match of the first half of the campaign. Despite the setback, the Rojiblancas remain in first place in the standings, holding a 3-point advantage over Arenas de Armilla.
Their impressive run, which included one draw and 9 consecutive victories, came to an end, but their promotion hopes are now complicated due to current regulations.
UD Almería Women can only enter the promotion play-offs if they finish as the best Andalusian team in the tier. However, Sevilla FC 'B' Women, who remain unbeaten in Group X, currently stand in their way.
The UDA women knew they were up for a tough challenge away to Melilla, a side with a solid home record, and the match proved difficult. The Rojiblancas struggled to convert clear chances, while Melilla made the most of their opportunities with clinical finishing.
Additionally, the Indálicas had to travel to Melilla on Sunday morning and were immediately thrown into action upon arrival.
UD Almería Women Starting XI: Andrea; Blanca Romero, Marina, Mireya, Ángela Cañadas, Lucía, María Gil, Gisela, Paqui Campoy, Jessi, and Aitana. Miriam and Liubov also featured in the match.
