Key Moments

The opening goal came from a patient Aoiz move, with Iker Zabaleta arriving in the box to convert a low cross. Doneztebe’s best spell followed early in the second half, but a combination of last-ditch defending and a sharp save from the Aoiz goalkeeper preserved the lead. Unai Aranguren then put the game beyond doubt in the 78th minute with a precise finish from the edge of the area.

Tactical Story

Aoiz set up in a 4-4-2 and looked to control the middle third through quick passing and disciplined positioning. Doneztebe pressed higher after the interval, but Aoiz’s back line held its shape and forced the visitors into wide crosses. The home side’s ability to counter through the channels was the difference between the two teams.

Standout Players

Zabaleta’s goal and movement made him a constant threat, while Aranguren’s late strike capped a strong all-around performance. The Aoiz goalkeeper was dependable when called upon, and the center-backs dealt well with Doneztebe’s aerial attempts. Doneztebe’s midfielder Jon Elizalde worked hard to drive his team forward, but he lacked support in the final third.

Standings and Season Impact

The three points help Aoiz strengthen their position in the Spanish Tercera División RFEF and build confidence ahead of a demanding run of fixtures. Doneztebe FT will be disappointed to leave without a goal, especially after a better second-half spell. Aoiz’s clean sheet is a positive sign as they look to turn home form into a foundation for the rest of the season.
