The Municipal Stadium of Olot was the scene of a Second RFEF duel between Olot itself and Barça Atlètic, a subsidiary of FC Barcelona, last weekend. The match, which was played in the afternoon, ended with a victory for the home team, although the exact score has not been published in the local media.
The match opened with the performance of Rai Marchán, who scored the first goal of the day for Olot. His early goal gave the home fans a boost that was maintained throughout the match. In the second half, Olot goalkeeper Iker Rodríguez showed his value by saving a penalty taken by Marc Tenas of Barça Atlètic, which prevented the rival from increasing its advantage.
Barça Atlètic, which usually has young players in development, showed a dynamic and offensive game. However, Olot remained firm in defense, with outstanding interventions from its midfielder and defenders who managed to neutralize the Catalan team's threats. Throughout the match, the referee had to resort to several substitutions, including the introduction of Ybarrra in the second half for Olot, who brought freshness to the midfield.
The Olot coach, during the press conference after the match, highlighted the importance of tactical discipline and group cohesion. He commented that his team's performance “reflects the constant work we have been doing in physical preparation and game strategy.” For its part, the Barça Atlètic coaching staff stressed the need to continue refining the transition between defense and attack, pointing out that young players are learning from experience.
With this result, Olot consolidates itself in the middle of the Second RFEF table, while Barça Atlètic continues to search for consistency that will allow it to advance in the competition. Fans of both teams are looking forward to the next match, where each club's ability to maintain momentum and improve their league position will be tested.
