**FC Andorra defeated 0‑1 by Eibar**

FC Andorra suffered its second consecutive loss of the 2024‑25 season, and its first defeat at home, after being beaten 1‑0 by SD Eibar on Saturday. The decisive goal was scored by Eibar forward Efe Akman in stoppage time. A goal by FC Andorra that had been scored in added minutes was subsequently ruled out for off‑side after a review by the referee, Ojaos Varela, and the VAR assistant, Pulido Santana.

The match, played at the Nou Estadi of the Andorran Football Federation, saw FC Andorra, coached by Carles Manso, dominate possession for much of the game but fail to convert chances. The team’s efforts were highlighted by a missed opportunity in which a shot from outside the penalty area was disallowed after a lengthy VAR check. FC Andorra’s players, including goalkeeper Golubović and defender Rijkhoff, were unable to prevent the late winner.

The result leaves FC Andorra with two defeats in as many games, while Eibar secured three points. The loss does not affect the club’s status in the Primera RFEF, where it remains in the competition despite the setbacks.

Looking ahead, FC Andorra will travel to Valladolid for its next league fixture on Saturday. In parallel, the club is preparing for the close of the summer transfer window, scheduled for tomorrow. Management has indicated that the squad is not yet finalised and that additional signings may be pursued. The registration of forward Enes Sali is also pending, subject to the resolution of administrative requirements.

Key players mentioned in the match report include defender Hugo López, who was noted for his work rate, and midfielder Carriqué, who has been a regular contributor to the team’s attacks.
