CONIL DE LA FRONTERA, Spain (Interstat) — Conil scored twice in the final 20 minutes and rallied past Portuense for a 2-1 home victory Sunday at Estadio Municipal Jose António Pérez Ureba. The home side trailed for more than half an hour before turning the match around in the final stretch. Portuense scored once and could not protect its first-half lead, while Conil finished with the stronger closing stretch in front of its home supporters.

Portuense opened the scoring in the 39th minute. The visiting side found the breakthrough before halftime and took a 1-0 advantage into the interval. Conil pressed for an answer after the break, but Portuense defended its lead and kept the home side scoreless through much of the second half. The visitors remained organized at the back as Conil increased its possession and pushed numbers forward.

Conil finally broke through in the 73rd minute, leveling the match and shifting the momentum at Estadio Municipal Jose António Pérez Ureba. The equalizer set up a tense closing stretch, and Conil found the winner in the 89th minute to complete the comeback. The final goal came just before the end of regulation and left Portuense with little time to respond. Conil’s late surge turned a one-goal deficit into a one-goal victory.

The result moved Conil to two wins and two losses in the competition. Portuense is now one win, two losses and one draw in the competition.
