EDF Logroño drew 1-1 with Sporting de Huelva, thanks to a goal from Inés Altamira in the last minute of added time. In desperation, it helps the Rioja to save a point and neutralize a header from Dany Helena, a former local player, after a corner kick. Even with everything, the Logroño are left with four points and remain in the lower zone. His problem, the alarming lack of goal. Only five this season and so it is difficult to get victories.
The Logroño have jumped onto the pitch with impetus and soon they have started to generate chances. Gerardo has opted for an international attack, with Grace and Rebecca Elloh as stilettos on the wing and Jade at the attack point. On the bench, players like Ida, Olga García and Judith Luzuriaga. It was not going to be for offensive options. The team is capable of generating many chances, but it cannot finish them and already accumulates eighteen points against.
You cannot reproach the Rioja with offensive intentions. EDF Logroño wanted to take the initiative and the first came in a combination of Jade with Grace. The African was not decided, who was able to shoot with goalkeeper Chelsea far ahead and instead made a self-pass. Clearer was the occasion before the break. Chini has filtered a pass to Carolina Marín and she, alone before the rival goal, has crossed her shot. Freezing day on Las Gaunas and the feeling of always: it costs horrors to score a goal.

To look for a bigger bite, Gerardo has introduced Ida Guehai at half-time and Olga García with half an hour to go. The Huelva women have woken up and without having generated a real danger, they have sent their first clear chance to the bottom of the mesh. A shot from Dany Helena, centered, after a defensive failure and perhaps Pamela Tajonar, the best player on this team so far this season, could do something lower. Everything painted black, but the end of the game was going to give a small dose of happiness. Insufficient, but better than another defeat.
Gerardo has decided to burn the ships, with Judith Luzuriaga and Cynthia. Nerves were evident in the respectable, under a certainly unpleasant morning. Olga had the clearest, with a shot that diverted Chelsea to a corner. Moved by the nerves and with the chrono increasingly against, the La Rioja have sinned of precipitation. And when it seemed impossible, in the last action practically of the meeting, the central Inés Altamira has gone up to the area and her high shot, a kind of strange vaseline, has slipped into the back of the net.
A relief for EDF Logroño, who still remain at the bottom of the table and still do not know the victory with nine games played. The future is complicated at Primera Iberdrola, but this goal once again invites hope. The team is far from dead, but there is still a lot to improve.
