📝 Match report

Ceuta claimed their first victory on matchday 7 of LaLiga Hypermotion this Saturday, beating Real Sociedad B 3-1 at Estadio Municipal Alfonso Murube in a strange atmosphere given the extraordinary circumstances facing the autonomous city. With this win, José Juan Romero's side ended a run of five defeats and a draw that had left them bottom of the table on just one point. The match was an emotional rollercoaster, especially for the hosts: they found themselves trailing after a Real Sociedad B goal scored with a numerical advantage, then pulled off a comeback courtesy of two headers from their captain, and finally sealed it in stoppage time. Real Sociedad B were down to ten men from the 33rd minute when Arkaitz Mariezkurrena was sent off, yet Kazunari Kita still made it 0-1 in the 48th minute, right after the restart, catching Romero's side at their most vulnerable. The turnaround came courtesy of Carlos Hernández, a centre-back who turned striker for the afternoon and, with two headers, orchestrated the comeback. The defender's goals came in the 67th and 80th minutes, breathing life back into the Murube faithful. Jordi Escobar, who started on the bench, wrapped up the 3-1 scoreline in the 90+9th minute. The referee sent off Mariezkurrena for a straight red after striking Ceuta's fullback Matos, and issued Kita a second yellow, leaving Real Sociedad B with just nine men on the pitch. The victory lifts Ceuta out of the bottom spot and, with four points, moves them up to 19th place. It was a comeback that revives a side that was crying out for help, with a defender raining headers down from the back and a depleted rival left with no answers to stop the Ceuta wave. For Elopi23, who watches that Real Oviedo fighting for glory in Segunda División with a wary eye, it's still welcome news that Ceuta have found a win at home: in a category this tight, any side that lifts their head can pull up a chair at the top table, and today at the Murube they came hungry.
