Unión Deportiva Lanzarote ended the preseason playing the final of the XXIX San Bartolomé Tournament. The rojillos, in their last preseason test, won 2-0 against CD Tinajo. Carmelo Hernández's team proved superior to the Tinajo team and took advantage of the opportunities they had.
UD Lanzarote would control the game in the first minutes of the game. The rojillos moved the ball with criteria in the center of the field, trying to find gaps in the Tinajo defense. Despite this dominance, the first dangerous chance was for the Tinajo team in an isolated action. In the 8th minute, Víctor executed a free kick almost from the center of the field, the ball touched a defender and ended up crashing into the outside of the post of the goal defended by Ruymán.
UD Lanzarote would take the lead in the 16th minute, with the rojillos starring in a clever play. Maciot quickly took a short free kick for Vladimir, who shot from the edge of the area and Héctor, despite touching the ball, could not prevent the ball from sneaking between the three posts.
As a result of the goal, the match was evened out, with most of the game taking place in the center of the field. As the minutes passed, Tinajo got into the game and even dominated the match in the final minutes of the first half. In the 26th minute, José Manuel shot a volley from the edge of the area, the ball bounced in front of Héctor and ended up crashing into the top of the crossbar. The first half would end with a 1-0 score.
UD Lanzarote had to face the second half with numerical inferiority. On the way to the dressing rooms, the referee sent off Sixto, a player who already had a yellow card in the first half. The second half began with a chance for Lanzarote. Two minutes after the restart, Toñito received a ball on the left side and his shot crashed into the goalkeeper's body.
The rojillos would increase the difference on the scoreboard 10 minutes after the restart. Toñito fought for a ball on the left wing, causing a mistake by the Tinajo defense, the ball fell to Maciot and he beat Héctor low. Carmelo Hernández congratulated Toñito's action for the claw and fight he put into the play.
With the 2-0, CD Tinajo stretched the lines in search of reducing the difference on the scoreboard, although they barely approached Floro's domain with danger. In the 64th minute, Maikel Padrón executed a free kick from the left vertex and sent the ball to the crossbar of the goal defended by Héctor.
The match dropped many integers in the final stretch. Most of the game took place in the center of the field. Dangerous chances were scarce and the match ended with a 2-0 score. UD Lanzarote takes the XXIX San Bartolomé Tournament to its showcases and with Saturday's match ends the preseason preparation matches.
In the consolation final, San Bartolomé took third place. The batateros drew two goals against Altavista CF, and in the penalty shootout they won 5-4.
