The hosts, who began the evening clinging to the hope that a more decisive victory might save them, were highly active from the outset. They squandered several good opportunities in the first 40 minutes. In the 42nd minute, Pablo Torre capitalized on a well-placed pass following a corner kick, slotting the ball home. In stoppage time, Takuma Asano missed a chance to double the lead. Mallorca finally extended their advantage in the 83rd minute when Morlanes struck a shot that bounced off the ground, making it unsaveable for the Oviedo goalkeeper. Team top scorer Vedat Muriqi sealed the win after a swift attack, but despite the emphatic scoreline, it wasn't enough, and Mallorca will bid farewell to La Liga.
