UD Lanzarote visited the field of the undisputed leader of the category +15 points ahead of Maxi Barrera's team. With the need to win to break the bad streak of adverse results that UD Lanzarote has been experiencing, the rojillos fought on the field of the Javier Pérez Sports City and deserved to take the three points. Despite the final result (2-1)

UD Lanzarote faced the leader of the category, CD Tenerife B, in a match that was presented as exciting between two good teams. The first scoring opportunity did not take long to arrive. In the first minute, Marwan controlled a ball inside the area and his shot went to the base of goalkeeper Alejandro's post.

UD Lanzarote began to feel comfortable touching the ball and reaching the rival goal. In the seventh minute, a shot by Javi Betancort went high. Castaño also tried, but his shot went wide. UD Lanzarote knew that many of the options to score against the leader was to have possession to make CD Tenerife feel uncomfortable and be able to do a lot of damage. In the twenty-eighth minute, in a corner taken by Borja, Rosmen finished it into the back of the net, getting the rojillos ahead (0-1).

The match continued with a lot of play in the wide area of the field with hardly any scoring opportunities for either team. The half-time break was reached with the rojilla victory by the minimum.

The second half went by like the end of the first, a lot of play but without creating clear dangerous chances. In the 67th minute, Borja tried with a shot but his shot went wide, five minutes later Javi heads high.

In the 79th minute, the equalizing goal would arrive, in a shot by Giovanni that went into Alejandro's goal (1-1), the goal did not discourage UD Lanzarote who wanted to win the match, in the 83rd minute Miki controls a ball inside the area, turns but his shot is stopped by goalkeeper Ángel.

In the 86th minute, the winning goal would arrive for CD Tenerife in a corner that Josué launches and Portilla heads in, out of reach of goalkeeper Alejandro. (2-1)

CD Tenerife B could have extended the score in added time in a very disputed penalty signaled by the assistant that Giovanni takes and goalkeeper Alejandro stops, thus preventing the third goal, before the end of the match Rosmen could have tied the match but his shot went just wide.
