CD Tenerife B ended a three-match losing streak with a second-half comeback victory, overcoming an early deficit and injuries to secure a crucial win.

CD Tenerife B is back to winning ways after a tough run of three straight losses. While they stayed in the playoff spots, those defeats had taken a toll on their confidence. They bounced back with a strong second-half performance, overcoming an early goal from Moscardó's Siverio.

Coach Leandro Cabrera, known as Mazinho, had to make changes due to Kevin's suspension, starting Ibra Balde for the second game in a row alongside Julen Zubelzu at centre-back. In midfield, Joel and Mauro Costa partnered up again, with Loren Sánchez leading the line. However, Sánchez had to leave the game early due to a muscle injury, replaced by Marcos.

Tenerife B started brightly and almost took the lead in the 11th minute through Christian, whose shot was cleared for a corner. They continued to push, and Marcos nearly scored with a close-range backheel, but the goalkeeper made a good save. Moscardó then took the lead with their first real chance. Siverio controlled the ball well and fired it into the top corner, leaving goalkeeper Aragoneses with no chance.

Mazinho brought on Ybarra at halftime to boost the attack. However, another injury struck when Julen had to come off, forcing a defensive reshuffle. Giovanni replaced Belza, playing man-to-man, and Dylan. Joel moved back into defence, where he proved just as effective, winning the ball and setting up Juliano, who became key to the team's attacking flow.

With renewed confidence and a solid defence, Tenerife B turned the game around in a fifteen-minute burst. Marcos scored the equaliser, pouncing on a misplaced backpass from Moscardó's Akapo. Mauro Costa then put them ahead, finishing a loose ball in the box with a half-volley. This broke Moscardó's resolve, and they had no answer. To seal the victory, Walid added a third goal, finishing smartly after a good run from Juliano de Souza.
