Good weekend to close the year

A good way to end the year for the three grassroots teams that scored in the last match of 2024. The Youth and the Under-13s won comfortably, while the Cadet broke the bad streak of results with a draw in a crazy second half in which the tricolors had chances to take all three points.

U19 3-0 Joanenc | Let's look up

The team coached by Filipe Busto recovered from last week's stumble and convincingly defeated Joanenc, an opponent also located in the upper-middle zone of the table. Andorra dominated from start to finish against a team that hardly came close to the goal defended by Jauregui.

The tricolours began to get the game on track after the 15th minute when Haroun collected a good pass from Pere to beat a defender and send the ball into the back of the net with a strong shot. The 1-nil remained at half-time, but in the second half, the team did enough with two moves to sentence: first César punished a bad pass from the visitors defense to make the second and, a few minutes later, Abu took advantage of a good ball fought by César to beat the goalkeeper.

With this victory, the tricolour U19 is once again pushing itself to the top of the table and closes the year with 22 points, just four from first position.

U16 2-2 Tremp | A good second half has no prize

U16 was able to get a positive result again, but fell short and were unable to collect the three points against a direct rival in the lower zone of the standings. In a crazy final minutes, the tricolours had chances to achieve victory –Tremp also had some–, but the lack of accuracy in the shot penalized them.

Andorra took the lead early on when Kylian took advantage of a good cross from Roman to send the ball into the back of the net. The problem is that the tricolours were not capable to maintain the advantage and Tremp, with a very direct game, soon achieved the equalizer and ended up turning the score around just before the break.

In the second half, Andorra came out ready to go for it all and managed to close the rival in their own half. Thus, Ayan headed to the crossbar and Marc Ber encountered a great save from the goalkeeper in two of the clearest opportunities. Finally, when the team was starting to despair, Héctor took advantage of Marc Ber's shot into the post to equalize.

In the last minutes, Andorra threw themselves desperately in search of the winning goal and the game went crazy. Nil enjoyed a very good opportunity, while the away team were close to score with a shot that hit the post again. And in almost the last move of the game, Tremp's goalkeeper saved a goal from Ayan.

Balàfia 1-5 U13 | Win, win and win

The U13 team closed 2024 without knowing defeat – or a draw – this season. They did so after overcoming Balàfia in a game with two different halves: in the first, despite taking the lead, Andorra was not very good, while after the break they showed themselves to be completely superior and took the victory without suffering.

Despite scoring just in the 11th minute through Lucas with a shot from outside the area, the tricolours did not find their usual fluidity with the ball in the first 35 minutes. Despite not suffering at the back, Andorra was not at their best in the first half. All this was solved after half-time, when the team came out with a different face and scored four goals –Xavi, da Costa, Julio and an own goal– and created many chances. For their part, the team from Lleida scored their goal when the score was 0-3.
