Dive into Bwin’s post-match review of Mallorca 3-1 Elche in the La Liga on Saturday, 13 December 2025, with stats, key moments and our take on the match.
Mallorca secured a 3-1 victory over Elche at home. The hosts took an early lead when Manu Morlanes scored in the 5th minute, but Elche equalised through an own goal by Pablo Maffeo in the 21st minute. The game remained level until late on, with Mallorca making key substitutions around the 71st and 86th minutes to refresh their attack.
Omar Mascarell restored Mallorca’s advantage in the 82nd minute, and Vedat Muriqi added a third in the 89th minute to seal the win. This result builds on Mallorca’s recent form, which includes a win over Getafe and draws against Real Oviedo and Osasuna, helping them maintain momentum. Elche, coming off a strong win against Girona but with mixed results like draws against Real Madrid and Real Sociedad, struggled to convert their possession into goals.
Elche dominated possession with 58% compared to Mallorca’s 42%, yet the hosts were more clinical in front of goal, recording two assists while Elche had none. Both sides managed just one corner each, but Elche completed far more successful dribbles at 72 against Mallorca’s 40, suggesting they were more effective in individual battles. Mallorca picked up three yellow cards, including ones for Manu Morlanes, Omar Mascarell and Takuma Asano, while Elche avoided any bookings.
Each team used all five substitutions, with Mallorca bringing on players like Takuma Asano and Antonio Sánchez at 71 minutes to shift the game’s dynamics, followed by later changes such as Mateu Morey and Pablo Torre at 86 minutes. No red cards or penalties were recorded, and there were no injury-time goals, underlining a match decided by late strikes rather than dramatic stoppage-time twists.
The match turned on early and late goals, starting with Manu Morlanes’ 5th-minute strike for Mallorca, assisted by Jan Virgili, which set a positive tone for the hosts. Elche drew level in the 21st minute via an own goal from Mallorca’s Pablo Maffeo, shifting momentum briefly. Mallorca received yellow cards for Morlanes in the 20th minute and later for Mascarell in the 82nd and Asano in stoppage time, but these did not lead to further dismissals.
Substitutions proved influential, as Mallorca introduced Takuma Asano and Antonio Sánchez at 71 minutes, followed by Mateu Morey and Pablo Torre at 86 minutes, helping to build pressure. The decisive moments came late: Omar Mascarell’s 82nd-minute goal regained the lead, and Vedat Muriqi’s 89th-minute finish, assisted by Mascarell, confirmed the win, with Elche’s changes like John Donald and Álvaro Rodríguez at 66 minutes unable to turn the tide.
Mallorca lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, allowing midfielders like Manu Morlanes and Omar Mascarell to control the central areas while Vedat Muriqi led the attack. Partnerships in midfield, including Sergi Darder, supported creative play, with Jan Virgili providing an early assist. Substitutes such as Takuma Asano and Antonio Sánchez added energy in the latter stages.
Elche deployed a 4-1-4-1 shape, focusing on a solid midfield base with players like Martim Neto anchoring the setup. Wing options including Yago Santiago and Álvaro Núñez aimed to stretch the play, while Rafa Mir spearheaded the forward line. Late substitutes like Josan and André Silva were brought on to chase the game.
Omar Mascarell earned Bwin’s Man of the Match award for his pivotal role in Mallorca’s victory, scoring one goal and providing one assist. He also created one big chance and delivered two key passes, demonstrating his influence in midfield. Having started the game, his contributions were crucial in the late stages to secure the three points.
