Real Oviedo and Atlético de Madrid 'B' ended in a draw in a match marked by the intensity and high competitive level of both teams. Andrea Suárez's side, who had to overcome the injury of Raissa Mbappé in the first half, were far superior to the Madrid team, who arrived at El Requexón with a perfect record in the Primera Federación Iberdrola. A point that feels insufficient for an Oviedo team that only lacked a goal to complete the match.

There were no surprises in Andrea Suárez's starting eleven, as she repeated the blue lineup for the third consecutive week. Atlético came out determined, looking to dominate and score from the first minutes through their wingers. In contrast, the Carbayonas opted to build from possession and attempt to create dangerous plays to dismantle the red-and-white defense. Eva Lois, with a header, had one of the clearest chances of the first half, but the Cantabrian's attempt went over the crossbar. Shortly after, another corner and another header from the Santander player went wide. Laurina, in the 41st minute, couldn't finish the play between Vera Rico and Nerea Lombardero. The bad news of the first half was Raissa Mbappé's injury, which forced her to leave El Requexón in an ambulance. 

After the restart, ADT came on to replace the Cameroonian forward, and with her arrival, heavy rain fell over El Requexón. Vera Rico had the first chance of the second half at her feet, but the Atlético reserve team's goalkeeper secured the ball. Shortly after, the coach made changes: a double substitution brought on Anina and Auñón. The latter delivered a cross from the left that Laurina struck point-blank. But Alba de Isidro, with great reflexes, saved the visitors from conceding the first blue goal. In the final stretch, ADT had another opportunity, which went wide, and Sheila Elorza came on for Laurina. Real Oviedo, who finished the match pressing in the opponent's area and deserved more, earned a point against a rival that arrived at the Ciudad Deportiva with a perfect record of victories.
