Andorra Run Riot Against Escaldes in Friendly Rout

FC Andorra made a statement in front of their home crowd, putting on an attacking masterclass against Inter Club d'Escaldes in what turned into a lopsided affair. The hosts set about their business early and created a bright atmosphere with their intent to impress in the friendly encounter. Escaldes came to compete but found themselves outmatched in what proved to be a testing afternoon for the visitors.

Á. Calvo struck first for Andorra in the 12th minute, giving the home side an early foothold in the contest. The hosts doubled their advantage through A. Uzkudun's finish on the half-hour mark, and it looked as though Andorra would cruise to victory. That assumption changed briefly when Escaldes pulled one back in the 54th minute through an unmarked effort, and they levelled the score just five minutes later with another goal to make it 2-2 and spark some intrigue into the tie.

Andorra, however, showed their quality when it mattered most. An unnamed Andorra player restored the hosts' lead in the 61st minute, and from that point onward the visitors had no answer to the home side's attacking prowess. The momentum swung decisively toward Andorra, who found their rhythm and poured forward relentlessly as Escaldes tired visibly.

The 5-2 final scoreline reflected Andorra's superiority across the 90 minutes, with their attacking options proving too much for a Escaldes defence that struggled to cope with the pace of the game. For Andorra, the victory represents an encouraging result in their pre-season preparations, while Escaldes will be keen to dust themselves off and improve ahead of their next outing.
