The Goierri team faced its last regular season match with the uncertainty of permanence. A victory guaranteed their participation in the league championship fight, while a defeat would force them to await other results to even know if they would retain their category. It was a make-or-break encounter.

Suso Romero's team played an excellent match, perhaps their most serious of the entire season, against a formidable opponent like El Salvador. The Gipuzkoan team knew how to endure and maintained concentration throughout the clash. In a superb second half, they managed to subdue their rival with the unwavering support of a dedicated fan base.

The start of the match was very even, with strong defensive work from both sides. El Salvador scored the first penalty, but Huber's kicks kept the score tight. At halftime, with a 9-13 score, Ordizia's permanence was uncertain, as results from Sant Boi were also significant.

In the second half, Ordizia went on the offensive in search of a try. Aitor Lasa scored the first try, but Huber missed the conversion. Later, Brian González scored the second try, giving Ordizia a 19-16 lead. In the final minutes, Víctor Gavin prevented an El Salvador try, and the Gipuzkoan team sealed the victory and their ticket to the play-offs.

The Goierri club will not play next week, on the final matchday of the regular phase. After two seasons of absence, their fans will be able to calmly watch on television which team will join them in the title play-offs. Ordizia's presence in the title fight will be the icing on the cake for this campaign, ensuring that next season the Gipuzkoan team will continue in the elite of state rugby, marking their 22nd season.
