These are the results of the day:
Group XII: Tenisca 0 – San Fernando 4
¡Another surprise in the Canary group! He Tennis, who came to the duel being one of the most critical voices of the Federation's resolution to apply the point average instead of leaving the rankings as they were, had, despite everything, the tie factor. Perhaps that was what encouraged San Fernando to take the initiative and the first controversy would soon come. In the 18 ', Andrés, from San Fernando, claimed a grab inside the area. Minutes later, the 'Sanfer' energetically asked Jorge Gómez for the second card. The referee did indicate a maximum penalty favorable to the worst ranked on the edge of the break and Quintero transformed it. The stopped ball was the winner's best weapon. As soon as the second half starts, Abraham scored. Tenisca, dissatisfied with the arbitration criteria, was increasingly disconnected from the game. It was not until the final stretch that it finally fell apart. In the 87th minute, the line canceled a goal by the 'Sanfer' for offside. At 88 'the referee called another penalty that transformed into Diana Eleder in the rejection. It was somewhat rigorous, like the third, a questionable demolition of Emilio to Pulido. Stephane transformed it, in the morning room. Second revolution on the island of El Hierro, again with the public as a witness.
The final between San Fernando and Tamaraceite, with a tie factor for the first, will be held on Saturday July 25 at 12:00 at the Municipal Stadium of El Hierro.
End of the match in El Hierro.

Group III: Torrelavega Gymnastics 1 – Rayo Cantabria 1
Perhaps Gimnástica de Torrelavega did not expect to suffer so much in a match that it could only take one rumbor. He Lightning Cantabria, also know as Racing B, could not rise in category due to the descent of the first team. Who knows if the 'older' would have done better with the talents of the subsidiary, who came out to bite. Musy, somewhat heeled, spared a hand to hand. Jerín would not fail, with a lash with the right leg that was taking effect, similar to Cristiano Ronaldo's shots, and became unstoppable for the goalkeeper. However, it ended up weighing the fact that the second classified had a chance of going up. Borja Camus transformed a penalty after a clear demolition inside the area. La Gimnástica had the game where it wanted, it knew how to slow it down and made the rival forget the faith he had shown in the first half. Jesus, however, had the promotion of Laredo in 92 '. A great shipment from the left failed in the goal mouth and left everything on the boards. A tie that favors, one more day, the best classified.
The final between Laredo and Gimnástica de Torrelavega, with a tie factor for the first, will be played on Saturday July 25 at 18:30 at the Fernando Astobiza de Sarón.
Group II: Llanera 2 – Covadonga 3
Llanera and Covadonga staged the best match so far in the Third Division Playoff. In addition, they demonstrated it from the first minute. With 48 seconds on the clock, Aitor Ferrero put it on Jaime Álvarez, who defined after a great control with his chest. The thing was not going to stay there. Shortly after, Edu Font received a ball inside the area and incomprehensibly forgave. He had the opportunity to redeem himself in 12 'and he did so. A great run on the left wing ended in the second goal for the third classified after a shot that bounced off an opponent. If they thought that this would end, they were very wrong. Pantiga, from Llanera, finished in a semifallo and forced Aitor to perform a miracle to prevent his rival from cutting distances. If you get bored in the middle of so much narration, keep in mind that the game had not even reached the 20th minute. In fact, seconds before Matías shot the crossbar and they took the rejection from under the sticks. It was evident that Llanera deserved to be in the fight. Marcos Arango, with possible foul, won an aerial duel and gave Abel the goal. It would not be the last for Llanera in the first half. Matías, offensive leader, collided with Aitor again. Neither Omar could take advantage of the rejection in the goal mouth. The Covadonga sighed every second that followed, while two of his soccer players followed the initial revolutions. Jaime released a wonderful pass for Edu Font to define in the heads up. Thus came the 1-3 and the joy of a Covadonga who made a first half dreamed and who finds the great prize of fighting for promotion next weekend. Matías, with a kick to the crossbar, and Dani, with the 2-3, they put emotion.
The final between Covadonga and Caudal Deportivo, with a tie factor for the first, will be held next Saturday, July 25 at 7:30 p.m. in Sarriena.
Group I: Ourense 2 – Arosa 1
Martín Lamelas overtook second place in the group in the 15th minute and, since then, the logic of the best in the table prevailed. Arosa took control of the ball, which earned him to shoot more times between the three poles (2-5) and out (0-3). Despite this, the game was installed in a general balance, in which Ourense was very comfortable. Even more so when Agus fell inside the area after a great collective move and the referee indicated maximum penalty. Renan Zanelli transformed it, sentencing the classification for the final and sending a strong message to Compostela in the battle for promotion. Beda gave his peers an iota of faith, thanks to a header after a corner kicked by Julio Rey that was the first goal of the third. It was insufficient and did not even cause a final arreón. Arosa needed two goals and he kept the honey on his lips. In the final, there will be a high duel.
The final between Compostela and Ourense, with a tie factor for the first, will be held next Saturday, July 25 at 7:30 p.m. in Balaídos.
Group IV: Sestao River 0 – CD Vitoria 0
Classic Basque duel on the Sarriena grass. In fact, it looked like a carbon copy of yesterday's Portugalete-Basconia, although it was a little less lively. It was a beautiful round trip, which is enjoyed and suffered equally. Especially for the fans, who saw hundreds of balls in the area, recoveries in the opposite field, spaces, centers, falls, disputes … However, as appealing as it seemed, it hardly had any chances in its first few bars. Joritz Landeta He made some good intervention until the explosive climax of the final seconds. There it was all yours, mine, yours, mine. Sestao failed the infallible in 94 'and the Eibar subsidiary was able to blow everything up three minutes later. But the Sestao goalkeeper, who has been branded a saint by the club's official account, made a superb cross-kick stop to pass the ball to his own. There were no goals, although tournaments are also decided with gloves. Jaime Dios, in 98 ', was sent off when Kepa, from Sestao, left alone to score.
The final between Portugalete and Sestao River, with a tie factor for the first, will be held next Saturday, July 25 at 7:30 p.m. in Sarriena.
Group XVII: Teruel 1 – Brea 2
Brea starred in one of the most agonized comebacks so far in the Playoff. Above all, because of the circumstances. The team from Teruel came forward after five minutes of the match, forcing Brea to take charge of the match from that moment. This happened and everything could change when the referee indicated a maximum penalty favorable to third parties classified in 20 '. Veintemilla threw it wrong, loose, low, tight, as the goalkeepers like. Matic He put on the superhero cape, which was not worth it to stop a shot from Nacho after a great threat inside the area. Great goal. Meanwhile, Camacho made a Maradonian move by leaving five opponents. It was of little use to him, like Carrasco throwing a foul towards the squad. Because Matic was on his way again. The Brea had a cartridge left, thrown into what would be a dream. Raúl Rubio headed and in the 96th minute unleashed the fury of all his teammates. He scored a historic goal, to seal the comeback and put his own in the grand final.

Group IX: El Ejido 3 – Motril 2
What happened at the Marbella Football Center was, to say the least, striking. He started by sweeping El Ejido, with goals from Sanchidrián and Albert Sources. After seven minutes, the score was already 2-0 in favor of the best classified. Everything seemed decided. Even more so when Cristian Moreno finished sentencing. Already in the second half, El Ejido was somewhat confused and Carmelo celebrated the honor goal in the 48th minute. But Juanfran, in 68, did the second and raised the shake on the bench in El Ejido. It was a simple scare. The third parties in the table kept trying, but without success. They arrived a lot, but they warned little and the two necessary goals were sinking a very worthy Motril, seen what was seen in the first twenty minutes. Jaén is already waiting in the final.
The final between El Ejido and Jaén, with a tie factor for the first, will be held next Saturday, July 25, with stadium and time yet to be decided.
Group XV: Saint John 2 – Beti Kozkor 4
Beti Kozkor takes the award for the biggest comeback so far in the Playoff. He knew how to recover, when the pressure pressed and he got into the final against Mutilvera. The duel had nothing to do with the 0-0 without too much danger that could be seen 24 hours earlier in Merkatondoa. Iriguibel put San Juan ahead in the 16th minute. Beñat wasted no time in setting the tables. Specifically, four minutes. Three later, García returned to freeze the bench of Beti Kozkor, with the second. At the edge of the break, Armendariz left everything as it was. In the second half there was no color. Soroa in the 51st minute he overtook a stoic Beti Kozkor and Barberena sentenced in 87 '.

The Alcorcón B looked for it and got it. The potter's subsidiary had a good part of the match submitted to the Unión Adarve and, although it cost the alcorconeros, in the end they managed to pass to the final against Navalcarnero. The yellows came out to dominate the game, but the first blow was delivered by the red and black in a deep pass from Cuevas that came to Capdevila and perfectly defined against Mena (twenty'). From the domain it was passed to the submission and two penalties claimed by Alcorcón B Morona del Campo did not consider as such. The changes worked for Jorge Romero and Gabri López and César Gómez brought freshness to the yellow attack. In just four minutes Llario (59 ') and Edu Viaña (62') turned the tie around. The party reversed the roles, but the Adarve was unable this time to complete the heroic and in the cons the subsidiary put Carlos and his rear in a tight spot.

Group XVI: Varea 1 – Casalarreina 0
The classification has spoken and the group from La Rioja has the final that everyone expected. The Logroñés Sports Society was far superior to Arnedo, which did not happen in the duel between Varea and Casalarreina. It was worth it to tie the seconds of the table, but they wanted to make a quick goal that would give them peace of mind. Said and done, although it was born from the individual magic of one of its footballers and not from a group arreón. Chimbo unleashed a monumental whiplash to the squad. It was very far away and impressed everyone present. Benji, characteristic name for a goalkeeper, stopped the glimpses of the draw of Casalarreina. First to Estéfano, then to Bernal. The goalkeeper finished sinking the rival, who made another move to come back without success. Izan's expulsion was the highlight. With incessant heat and a thermometer marking more than 30 degrees, the final of La Rioja was defined. Next Saturday, the SD Logroñés and Varea squares will be played.

David Albelda's Atzeneta is already a reality. Of course, to confirm as a Second B team you will need to beat Alcoyano next Saturday. At least, the image he gave today is a good prelude to his potential. Alzira suffered pressure from the third-placed teams at the start of the match, although, little by little, it was remaking and taking control. Caudete, in fact, overtook the favorite. In the discount, Álex Chico headed the tie without opposition in an action in which Christian could do more. Not worth the tie, Albelda sent her own up. Javi García was close to scoring on a counterattack, but the Alzira goalkeeper amended his error and saved his companions. He didn't do it before Paco Sáez, which he defined with great calm.

Alcañiz, in the 91 ', finished off a shot high that connected from the left wing, with plenty of space and time to reach the decisive target.

Group XIV: Coria 0 – Cacereño 1
The Cacereño, a regular from the upper part, measured Coria, governed by the same pattern. Ezequiel scored the first goal of the afternoon for the third classified, two minutes into the game. Of course, unlike other duels, that goal was not worth double. The Cacereño knew that he had to row for a long afternoon if he wanted to get into the final. But he didn't suffer too much in the first half. Coria had a shot deflected and nothing else before the break. In the second, after minutes to the trantran, Bernabé had to rescue his family in a small arreón of the second classified of the Extremadura group. Beyond those specific actions, El Coria was unable to firmly threaten the goal of Cáceres and says goodbye to the Playoff despite being one of the favorites. Again, there was an audience.

Meanwhile, B was preparing for a special Playoff, from which they are victorious for now. They will have to confirm feelings at the Municipal de Santanyi, where they will meet Poblense in the grand final. The match was decided thanks to the goal of Jaume Tovar, not without suffering on the part of the third classified. Jesus made a great stop for Teran and Bala, moments later, sent the ball to the wood. It was time to reduce water even more when Parra was sent off with more than 20 minutes to play.

Group X: City of Lucena 1 – Xerez Deportivo 1
If the City of Lucena wants to ascend, of course it would have to suffer. And if Xerez Deportivo put you on the ropes, Betis B will be no less. Although on Saturday the Atletico subsidiary swept Utrera, with hardly a chance to reply, on Sunday it hosted a vibrant and even duel between the second and third in the standings. Zafra overtook the Xerecistas and Pablo Gallardo tied just 120 seconds later. It was a sweet introduction to chaos. The injury time was extended to 102. Whoever did not know about the new Playoff format might well think that there was an extension in between. But no. Both fought with all their weapons. One in defense, the other in attack. Xerez did not give up, not even with the expulsion of Adri Rodríguez in 99 '. And he did not because a goal led him to glory. A goal that did not arrive and that rises to the City of Lucena. Of course, there is a bull to knock down, the powerful subsidiary of Betis.

Group V: Terrassa 1 – CE Europa 0
The lonely goal of Sergi Arranz executed the Europa. It was the so-called psychological goal, as soon as the second half started. The Catalan team launched strongly for both because scoring it meant that their opponent would only have 45 minutes to score two for a whole second of the group. Given the confusion generated after the target, Terrassa had to change the chip and introduce men of refreshment to muddy the game. Even so, Europe tried, although the clearest occasions came from the best classified on the counterattack. Kilian He could do the second, which would not have been too much, but he did not end up needing it either.

Group VIII: Gymnastics Segoviana 0 – Arandina 0
“Without suffering there is no glory“This is how the Gimnástica Segoviana titled the chronicle of its website. Reason is not lacking. The tie was worth it, but they sought dominance with the ball. And they succeeded in the first instance, although Rubo had the first great opportunity of the match for him Arandina. Then they went Lamb and You arrive those who could sentence. They did not and the sun continued to execute the 22 protagonists. That overworked them and gave wings to the one who needed a target to advance to the grand final.
