Atlético Levante UD was defeated in La Nucía after playing with a numerical disadvantage from the 18th minute, following Junior's expulsion, despite taking a two-goal lead. The home team managed to come back, and the three points ended up staying at the Estadi Camilo Cano.

The granota team approached the match with the intention of securing a victory after learning of UD Castellonense's draw, aware that a win would place them at the top of the standings. However, the plans were disrupted within a few minutes, as Álvaro del Moral's side was reduced to ten players after Junior received a red card in the 18th minute. The Levante players had to roll up their sleeves to continue pursuing their goal, and so they did. Despite CF La Nucía trying to take advantage of their numerical superiority, Atlético Levante UD took the lead in the 41st minute with a penalty converted into a goal by Brandon.

After the break, the blue and garnet team, wearing green today, extended their lead through Manel Usedo, who sent a cross from the right by Salva Brull into the back of the net. The home team did not give up and began to hover around the opposing area in search of a goal. They succeeded in the 73rd minute, and ten minutes later, they scored the equalizer. These two goals gave them the necessary momentum to complete the comeback in the dying moments of the match, in the 94th minute. CF La Nucía scored the third goal, and there was no time for more.
