Las Palmas 2:1 Albacete: Segunda División Match Result

Match report

Las Palmas and Albacete met in the opening round of the Segunda División at the Gran Canaria stadium on 16 August 2026. The visitors completed a comeback to win 2:1, with S. Ramirez scoring twice in stoppage time to overturn a deficit. Las Palmas had taken the lead through Jese before San Bartolome gave Albacete hope.

Jese opened the scoring in the 21st minute, a moment that shifted the tempo. Albacete responded through Victor San Bartolome in the 85th minute, and by then the game had turned on its head. S. Ramirez finished with two goals in the 90th and 90+3rd minutes to seal the win.

Las Palmas controlled possession at 66%, but Albacete registered more attacks — 87 to 73. The hosts created two big chances but could only convert one, while Albacete also managed two big chances from fewer opportunities. Shots accuracy was identical at 33% for both sides, yet the visitors did not travel to make up the numbers in terms of efficiency.

Substitutions began to change the game from the 60th minute. Las Palmas introduced S. Obeng and S. Ruiz together, while Albacete brought on C. Neva and J. Vallejo. The hosts rolled the dice with six changes overall, but the deeper squad on the pitch made the difference in the final moments.

The result leaves Las Palmas sixth with seven points from four games, while Albacete remain at the bottom on zero points after three defeats. The visitors have not won since the opening round and now face a longer road to recovery.
