Xeres Deportivo 0-1 Micah Las Lagunas
Micah Las Lagunas took all three points in a Club Friendly against Xeres Deportivo on Friday evening, the visitor winning 1-0 thanks to a second-half strike. The match was marked by two red cards that disrupted the flow, with Felix shown his marching orders in the seventy-fifth minute and J. Arias following suit in stoppage time.
J. Gamez was the match-winner, finding the net in the seventy-eighth minute after Felix had already been dismissed. The goal came as the home side were reduced to ten men, and Micah held firm for the result despite playing the final ten minutes with ten men as well.
There were two dismissals in total, which gave the encounter a difficult character. Felix went off first, leaving Xeres to chase the game, and then J. Arias was sent off late on, meaning both sides finished with a man short after the hour mark.
Statistics from the match were minimal, with neither side registering corners, free kicks, or offsides in the data provided. This is not unusual for friendlies, where the focus tends toward experimentation rather than tactical rigour, and the result itself told the story.
Xeres Deportivo have had varied results in their recent outings, including a 3-3 draw with Seuta II and a 2-0 win over Sevilla Atletico, but this evening offered little to build on. Micah Las Lagunas, meanwhile, ended a run without a victory, having last played in October 2023 when they lost 1-0 to Chiclana.
The scoreline was tight, but the red cards ensured the match was never going to settle into a comfortable rhythm for either side. Xeres will look back on a game where they had periods of possession but could not convert, while Micah showed resilience after taking the lead to see out the result.
