Levante UD Femenino returned to competition with an important victory against FC Barcelona B at the Joan Gamper Sports City. The granota team secured a 0-3 win against one of the teams that has dominated the category in recent seasons. "Being able to go to their home and win the way we did leaves a very good feeling about the team," said Yoli, one of the standout players of the match after scoring the second goal, her first in the Levante jersey. "I was so excited, I enjoyed it like a little girl scoring her first goal. I'm very happy," she admitted.

The goal, which came from a cross by N. Escoms, who lifted her head and found Yoli in a favorable position to finish the play, had a special celebration for the Madrid defender: "Celebrating it for Sara, who couldn't be with us, and then dedicating it to my family, especially my parents, who were able to come and watch the match live."

With three points and the lead secured, Levante UD Femenino now focuses its efforts on the third round of the Copa de la Reina, where they will face SD Eibar. Yoli approaches the challenge with ambition and confidence in the granota team's abilities: "We were eager to face a First Division team, a good team that knows exactly how they want to play and what they want to do, but we are even clearer about our strengths, and I think we are going to cause them a lot of trouble, and it will be a beautiful match."
