The final matchday of the Tercera Federación regular season saw Atzeneta secure a crucial victory against Castellonense, but their salvation remains pending, while Ontinyent 1931 concluded their season with a defeat at El Clariano.

Atzeneta, needing to secure three points to avoid potential direct relegation, visited the champions of Group VI of Tercera Federación, Castellonense. The match began with an early approach from the home side that the goalkeeper dealt with. The visitors' response came with a goal disallowed for offside. Subsequently, there was an exchange of chances without much danger from either team, leading to a goalless draw at halftime.
The second half started with a timid shot from Atzeneta. Castellonense also sought the opponent's goal, with one of the clearest chances of the match ending in a corner. Before the half-hour mark of the second act, Atzeneta opened the scoring with a header from Ayoze, following a cross from Leo Ramírez. Garrido's team tried to extend their lead, but the score remained 0-1. Atzeneta fulfilled their part and earned three points, allowing them to avoid direct relegation, while Castellonense received their league champion trophy.
Now, Atzeneta will have to wait to confirm their continuity in the national category. A potential relegation by drag keeps the team in suspense. The first option for salvation depends on Castellón “B” maintaining their category in Segunda Federación after the playout. If this condition is not met, the team will have to wait for a Valencian team to achieve promotion through the playoff. The outcome will be known on June 20.
Meanwhile, Ontinyent 1931 bid farewell to the season at home with the aim of providing a final joy to their fans, facing Atlético Levante who sought the best possible classification for the playoff. The home team started strong, but a defensive error allowed Brandon to warn for the visitors. In the 23rd minute, the only goal of the match arrived, scored by Brandon Yarce for Atlético Levante.
In the second half, the home team sought the opponent's goal, but without success. The visitors could have sealed the game but were not accurate. Ontinyent 1931 tried to push forward, but the score remained 0-1. Ontinyent 1931 recorded their sixth defeat in the last seven matches and closes the season in eighth position.
