Eibar got a point on matchday 10 of the First Division by drawing 1‑1 with Mallorca in the 93rd minute, when IvánGil converted a penalty with two minutes remaining. The match, which was played at the Ipurua Stadium, was decided in the final moments after the referee awarded a second penalty after John was sent off for a direct foul. The victory of the armeros keeps them four points behind the leader, Mallorca, and keeps them in the classification zone.
The match began with a cautious performance by both teams. The first goal came in the 53rd minute, when Fuentes, with a long-range shot, took advantage of the lack of marking and scored for Mallorca. Eibar tried to react with several opportunities, but the Mallorcan defense and goalkeeper ArnauTenas kept the score at zero-zero until half-time. In the second half, Martón replaced Bautista and opened the game with a shot between the sticks, although the visitor managed to cut off the attempt with a header from Liso in the 53rd minute.
Throughout the second period, Eibar showed a fighting spirit. AduAres and Martón created two scoring chances, but Mallorca goalkeeper Tenas safely stopped them. In the 70th minute, a header from Arbilla hit the crossbar, keeping the gunsmiths' hope alive. However, the situation changed when the referee awarded a penalty to the visitors in the 84th minute for a knockdown by John on IvánGil. The penalty was saved by the Eibar goalkeeper and the ball hit the crossbar, leaving Mallorca with one less player after John was sent off.
In the final minutes, Eibar again received a penalty inside the area, this time to AduAres, and the referee awarded a second penalty. This time, IvánGil took charge of the execution and, without fail, converted the penalty precisely, placing the ball low and into the right post. The penalty goal in the 93rd minute secured the tie and the point for Eibar, who celebrated the victory with a pink solidarity shirt in support of Breast Cancer Day, along with the delegation of the Gipuzkoan Katxalin Association.
With the tie, Eibar remains in the classification zone, four points behind Mallorca, while the visitor, who came close to the minimum difference, was left without the point that would have put them at the top. The next challenge for Eibar will be to maintain pressure on the table and continue looking for opportunities to win in their next matches.
