The Copa del Rey clash between UD San Sebastian de los Reyes and UD Almeria unfolded as a tightly contested match with Almeria securing a 2-1 victory. The home team struck early at the 20th minute mark, capitalizing on a disorganized Almeria defense, which was an uncharacteristic lapse. Almeria's response, however, came swiftly as they netted twice before the half-time whistle, showcasing their superior attacking prowess and ability to convert under pressure.

A key factor in Almeria's victory was their dominance in set-piece situations, evidenced by their 13 corner kicks compared to San Sebastian's 7. This created several scoring opportunities and kept the pressure on the home side. Additionally, Almeria exhibited a disciplined tactical approach, despite accumulating three yellow cards, which indicates a combative yet controlled performance. Their maintained aggression, without conceding a red card, was crucial in stifling San Sebastian's offensive efforts.

San Sebastian attempted to assert themselves through disciplined defensive plays, committing no offsides, and maintaining focus throughout the match. Their lone yellow card in the early second half underscored a clean, but ultimately futile effort to contain Almeria's forward momentum. Crucially, the second yellow card at the 49th minute for Almeria did not avert their dominance, highlighting their superior midfield control and resilience in the face of intense periods of play.
