The intensity of the game far exceeded the usual limits for a preseason match, turning ball disputes into constant brawls. Overly hard tackles ignited the tempers of the footballers and the members of the respective benches.
Repeated complaints from the coaching staff further raised the temperature of the clash, forcing the referee to intervene continuously to try and calm the situation. However, the tension increased as the minutes passed.
Given the clear risk of serious incidents or injuries, the match official made the preventive decision to end the game before the scheduled time. The score was 2-1 in favor of the home team, but it became secondary.
This atypical outcome adds to the comarcal rivalry between Teulada and Dénia ahead of the upcoming league championship, anticipating a heated duel in the official competition.
