This BLP should be converted to a redirect, and really we need to decide if that should be to List of FC Barcelona Femení players (as per Barcelona's website she was with them for four seasons [1]) or Selecció Barcelona 0–0 UE Centelles (the only match for which there is any related coverage of her). There's arguments for both. Knowing she was at the club for four years would swing me to the former, even though how much she actually played is both unknown and (based on what we do know) dubious.
At a recent AfD, one user tried to suggest there were more sources covering Mínguez, though the sources referred to (not even linked and assessed) were in fact already in the article except for an interview on the early training of the team, that the user presented. Being interviewed about an event qualifies as (soft) secondary coverage of the event, and is otherwise just a person talking about themselves, which does not establish notability. As WP:BLP1E notes, Being in the news does not in itself mean that someone should be the subject of a Wikipedia article; giving an interview does not mean the person is notable, especially when there are not other sources saying the interview took place to even really validly include that. Being chosen for an interview when media is interested in the event you were present for, means they want a human interest piece on the event.
If we look at even current primary sources from Barcelona, the link above for example says that Mínguez played in that match and became a nurse. In notable contrast, it describes the other player being inducted that day (Consuelo) as a pioneer, but not Mínguez. There is a website Barcelona's historians keep with information on players, including (for example) Consuelo, despite there being only dates and a note of playing in the first match [2]; the website does not have any information on Mínguez (I've tried the search function with various spellings and settings). It couldn't be used due to being a sports database but doesn't even have her anyway. If we look at recent secondary and tertiary sources that report and document history of the Barcelona women's team (not the human-interest stories), e.g. [3], [4], [5], then we find lots of coverage of players like Immaculada Cabecerán, Núria Llansà and Maria Teresa Andreu and some for players like Carme Nieto and Lolita Ortiz (names only from the 1970/71 squad). A distinct lack of Mínguez, especially with Llansà and Andreu being the other goalkeepers of the time. This is to say, there are various solid independent sources with significant coverage of the careers of players from that first season - Mínguez is simply not one of them and that's ok.
