Selaia claimed a 2:1 victory over Montañeses in the fourth round of the Primera Premier, played on 20 September 2026. The result keeps the hosts in second place with ten points from four games, while the visitors drop to tenth on four points. By then, the standings reflected what had been a season of mixed fortunes for both sides.
Montañeses had not won since their opening day, and this defeat extended that run of disappointment. Selaia, meanwhile, remained unbeaten after three wins and a draw against Chapeli neros on their previous outing. To be fair, the tempo never quite settled into a rhythm either side could fully control.
The opening goal came from Selaia, who took an early lead and looked comfortable managing the game. Montañeses responded with determination and found an equaliser before the break. And here's the thing: the home side did not panic when the visitors levelled, instead keeping their shape and waiting for their chance.
The decisive moment arrived in the second half when Selaia's striker latched onto a loose ball and finished coolly. Montañeses pushed for an equaliser but could not find the back of the net. The home side saw it out without major incident, though they switched off at the back on occasion.
Statistical figures showed Selaia dominated possession, controlling the tempo for much of the contest. They recorded more shots on target, but the match was decided by efficiency rather than volume. Montañeses had their moments but failed to convert them into meaningful chances.
The result moves Selaia closer to the top of the table, while Montañeses face a difficult run of fixtures ahead. The visitors have not won since their opening game and will need a response if they are to climb away from the lower reaches. For now, the gap between them and the top four remains significant.
