Córdoba CF wins the Olive Trophy in Jaén (1-2)

Córdoba CF claimed the XLII edition of the Trofeo del Olivo after defeating Real Jaén 1-2 at the Estadio de La Victoria. The blanquiverde team, with a lineup composed of players continuing to accumulate minutes and competitive rhythm during the preseason, showed their most effective side to secure another victory before the start of the official competition.

After an evenly matched opening phase, Córdoba CF opened the scoring in the 9th minute. Lidueña executed a good play down the right wing and delivered a ball to the near post, which Víctor Sánchez converted into the 0-1. Real Jaén tried to respond and managed to equalize the match before halftime through a penalty scored by Siverio, leaving the score tied at the end of a competitive first half.

The team led by Iván Ania stepped up after the restart, gained more possession, and found their reward in the 60th minute when Víctor Sánchez capitalized on a ball at the edge of the box to secure the definitive 1-2. Córdoba CF managed the final minutes confidently and lifted the Trofeo del Olivo, reinforcing the positive momentum of a squad that will conclude their preparation schedule this Friday against UD Almería.
