Inter Escaldes Extend Lead to Three Points with 5-3 Win Over Ranger's FC

Inter Escaldes strengthened their grip on the Lliga Multisegur Assegurances title with a 5-3 away win over Ranger's FC on Sunday, extending their lead to three points over second-placed UE Santa Coloma following the rivals' 0-0 derby draw the previous day.

The result leaves Felip Ortiz's team needing just one point from their final two matches to secure a fifth championship and defend their crown. They face Atlètic Club d'Escaldes on Saturday, May 9, while UE Santa Coloma—managed by Iñaki Alonso and with one game in hand—finish against Esperança.

Saturday's derby at Encamp Stadium between UE Santa Coloma and FC Santa Coloma ended goalless in a tightly contested match defined by strong defending and limited scoring opportunities.

Inter's game against Ranger's delivered a chaotic spectacle with multiple lead changes. Borja Arellano opened the scoring for the visitors, but Ranger's hit back through Prieto Payán and Padilla Leal. Otegui and Muguruza turned the tide again before the break. Pedja Muñoz increased the lead after halftime, Segura narrowed the gap, and Pochettino's stoppage-time goal confirmed the points.

Atlètic Club d'Escaldes beat CE Carroi 3-0 at Borda Mateu, where Rodrigo Piloto scored in the seventh minute and added a third in added time, sandwiching a late strike from Marc Pujol despite Carroi's resistance.
