Eibar enjoyed a positive weekend with strong results for both its men's and women's teams. According to reports from Mundo Deportivo, the Armeros defeated Granada 3-0 at Ipurua while the women's team held Real Madrid to a 0-0 draw at the Alfredo Di Stéfano.
The team managed by José Luis Mendilibar, currently second in the Segunda División standings with 9 points, showed clear superiority against Granada. With this win, their third in a row, Eibar's record stands at 3W-0D-1L from four matches, placing them just one point behind leaders Castellón. The scoreline reflected the home side's dominance from the start of the match.
How did Eibar secure the win over Granada?
Iván Gil opened the scoring in the 8th minute following an assist from Bautista. Adu Ares extended the lead just before halftime, in the 43rd minute, finishing off a pass from Guruzeta. The third goal came in the second half, scored by Guruzeta in the 57th minute after a quick counter-attack started by Álvaro Rodríguez.
Granada, who arrived as the league leaders, had no answer to Eibar's intensity. Their captain, Rubén Alcaraz, admitted to his club's media that the defeat was "a slap in the face" from which they must learn. "Nothing worked. The start wasn't good because we lacked the competitive tension," stated the midfielder. Eibar kept a clean sheet for the third consecutive game, strengthening their seasonal defensive record of 6 goals scored and 3 conceded.
What happened in the Eibar Women's draw?
In Liga F, Eibar earned a valuable point after drawing 0-0 against Real Madrid at the Alfredo Di Stéfano. The team coached by Iñaki Goikoetxea deployed a solid defensive block that frustrated the hosts' constant attacks. The Armero goal, defended by Wellmann, was key in preserving the draw.
Mundo Deportivo highlighted the visiting team's resilience, which managed to contain a rival missing their suspended forward Felicia Schröder. The Eibar women's team showed tactical order and discipline to secure a result that halts Real Madrid's winning streak in the domestic competition.
What is the team's current situation?
Eibar approaches the next matchday with high morale following this run of three wins. The team is in a strong position in the promotion race, though they must manage some significant absences. Imanol García de Albéniz and Sergio Álvarez are currently injured, posing a challenge to the squad's depth.
