Costa Adeje falls with honors on its visit to the category leader (5-1). Eder Maestre’s team took the lead after three minutes through Babajide, and managed to neutralize Barça to maintain the advantage for more than half an hour, however, the Catalans turned the score around on the edge of half-time, extending the result in the second half.
The Tenerife team surprised as soon as the match started after a ball into space towards María José Pérez, who from the right side of the area assisted the far post for Babajide to score the 0-1. Next, the warriors took a step back and with a line of five defenders they remained well planted to counteract the attempts of the Blaugrana team.
FC Barcelona assumed total control of possession and frequently reached the opponent’s area, although it was difficult for them to overcome a solid visitor defense that did not concede the first clear chance until after half an hour, when Cheza with a double intervention of merit deflected the shots by Patri Guijarro and Ewa Pajor.
In the 38th minute, with the eleven blue and white players defending their area, Irene Paredes took advantage of the only option to do damage, with a mid-height shot from the edge of the area that hit the post. The tie left Eder Maestre’s team shaken, and two minutes later they received a new blow with Pajor’s 2-1 score in an action protested due to a very dubious position.
Already in the stoppage of the first half, the leader of the category widened the penalty gap. A handball from Fatou inside the area allowed Graham to increase the local advantage from the eleven meters, dealing a hard blow to Eder Maestre’s team, who had dominated the scoreboard for more than half an hour but ended up leaving with an unfavorable 3-1 at half-time .
Upon returning from the locker room, the Tenerife team tried to advance its lines to keep away from its area a Catalan team that played at will and dedicated itself to giving mobility to the ball, expanding its advantage at match time thanks to the success from the front of Claudia Pina, who had already finished off the wood shortly before.
Already in the final stretch, in the middle of Barça’s siege, Esmee Brugts, leaning to the left, shot low at the short post to make the final 5-1 after a second half that passed placidly for Pere Romeu’s team, which did not achieve a wider result due to the lack of success and Cheza’s performance between the sticks.
