Eibar's youth teams recorded mixed results over the weekend of March 28-29, 2026. According to the report from www.sdeibar.com, the balance sheet included defeats for the reserve sides and the youth team, but highlighted the impressive unbeaten run of the Cadete Vasca side.

Substitutes used were Zubi, Ekaitz, Oscar, Santo, and Ekain. This result distances the team from the playoff places in Segunda RFEF, although their primary objective of staying up this season has already been comfortably achieved.
