Key Moments

Tenerife B, playing a 4‑3‑3, tried to build from the back but lacked the composure to execute under pressure. The friendly gave the coaches a clear look at the gap between the two levels.

Standout Performances

CD Tenerife’s centre‑forward scored twice and was a constant nuisance. Their midfield general controlled the tempo with precise distribution. For Tenerife B, the goalkeeper made several good saves to keep the scoreline respectable.

Season Preparation

CD Tenerife are using these friendlies to sharpen their attacking combinations ahead of the Segunda División campaign. The B team, competing in the lower tiers, will benefit from the experience against higher‑calibre players. The clean sheet will please the first team’s defensive coach.
