Fuentes broke the deadlock in the 52nd minute, finishing after an assist from Kevin Villodres to give Córdoba a 1–0 lead. Just over ten minutes later, he struck again. In the 64th minute, Fuentes completed his brace, this time converting a chance created by substitute Diego Bri to make it 2–0, consolidating Córdoba’s control of the contest.

Castellón coach turned to his bench shortly after the second goal, introducing Awer Mabil and Agustín Sienra on 65 minutes in search of a response. The hosts’ push intensified when Álvaro García entered the fray in the 74th minute, and he quickly made his mark.

In the 82nd minute, García pulled one back for CD Castellón, scoring after good work from Mabil to reduce the deficit to 2–1 and set up a tense finale. Despite further changes on both sides and a flurry of late yellow cards for Córdoba — including bookings for Iker Álvarez, Albarrán and Theo Zidane — the visitors saw out the closing minutes.

The win strengthens Córdoba’s position as the regular season of the Segunda División moves into its final stretch, while Castellón are left to reflect on a late rally that came too late.
