Barça Atlètic Draws 1-1, Misses Comeback

Barça Atlètic could only manage a 1-1 draw with Alcoyano despite an improved performance in the second half.

Barça Atlètic failed to overcome Alcoyano in a match that ended 1-1 at the Johan Cruyff Stadium. The visitors started with a compact defensive formation that limited Barcelona's attacking opportunities. It wasn't until the second half, after falling behind 0-1, that Belletti's side found their rhythm with fresher, quicker play that led to the equalizing goal.

The match ended with disappointment as Barcelona B couldn't find the winner to complete a comeback. Adding to the frustration was the injury to Jofre Torrents, who had to be stretchered off shortly after coming onto the pitch. Initial assessments suggest the injury may be serious, though further tests are needed for a definitive diagnosis.
