The match could not have started worse for Wanapix. Barely had the opening minutes been played when Diego Sancho capitalized on several rebounds inside the area to put Servigroup Peñíscola ahead. Jorge Palos' side pressed forward, and Villanueva equalized after winning back possession. Just before halftime, the visitors committed their sixth foul and Ortego made it 2-1.
Peñíscola came out all guns blazing in the second half, and Sancho appeared again to score his second goal of the afternoon. After a counterattack, Younnes put the Castellón side ahead for a third time, leaving Jorge Palos' team facing an uphill battle. Wanapix refused to give up and Brasero restored parity in the 35th minute, but just seconds later the Valencia-based side moved ahead again. The final blow came with virtually no time left on the clock, when Elías scored the fifth to seal the Aragonese side's defeat.
SECOND DEFEAT FOR WANAPIX ALDELÍS
It was not to be for Wanapix Aldelís in the second round either. The Aragonese side, who produced a strong second half, ultimately lost 6-3 to STV Roldán, one of the teams near the top of the table. The Aragonese team produced some impressive moments after halftime but failed to take their chances at crucial times.

Roldán maintained control of the ball and created three more chances before Bárbara opened the scoring with a lob over Ale. Just 30 seconds later, the home side scored a second after a well-worked move. The Zaragoza-based team shook off its nerves with a superb goal from Marina, who hit a volley straight into the top corner. However, the joy was short-lived, as Ceci restored the hosts' three-goal advantage in the very next move.
The second half began with a more accurate Wanapix Aldelís. The Zaragoza side had more possession and began to create danger, although they suffered a major setback when the fifth goal went in. The goal did not change the Aragonese team's approach, and they continued to improve on the court. Cardona made it 5-2 with a solo effort, shooting between the legs of the home goalkeeper. As the minutes passed, the Aragonese players began to feel the strain, and Laura made it 6-2 following a corner. Nano Modrego opted for a flying goalkeeper, and the decision paid off. Marta scored 6-3 at the far post, but the scoreline did not change again in the remaining minutes.
