Ari Arias was one of the key players in Levante UD's big win against Atlético de Madrid B. The forward scored a hat-trick in the 4-8 victory and is now the top scorer for Levante this season, with six goals.

The match required Levante UD to overcome an adverse scenario against a rival that came in great form. The team found themselves trailing 3-1, but the effort — and efficiency — of the entire squad allowed them to turn the game around: "We knew we were facing a great team on a streak, but we did things well. It was tough and challenging, but I’m very happy we got the three points."

The Madrid-born forward was instrumental in that comeback and completed her hat-trick during the second half. Ari Arias has already reached six goals at the start of this season, surpassing the five she scored throughout last season: "In the end, it’s about doing things right and going for them as we did."

The victory also marked the first demonstration of Levante UD's ability to compete away from home, after the team had shown its strength at home early in the season. Ari highlighted the group’s adaptation to a different setting: "We knew how to adapt to it and push the game forward. In the end, throughout the week, you analyze the opponent and try to adjust in the best way to play the game you need to."

For Ari Arias, the victory also had special significance as it took place in Madrid, her hometown. The forward capped off an unforgettable day with three goals and three points: "Yes, yes, happy with the victory, to be able to do it here in Madrid, in my home, and to keep going, let’s not stop."
