Historical moments live in Elda, the small town that belongs to the autonomous region of Valencia. And this because the local team, the Eldensesucceeded in an epic match with Real Madrid Castilla to get that promotion ticket to La Liga 2.
With the Blaugrana competing again after 60 years in Spain’s second division, since the last time this happened was in the 1963-64 season, with Castile to be left empty-handed and even in a… bad way.
What do we mean? With the first promotion final in Madrid having ended with a score 1-1, Real were looking for a win because another draw would see Eldense gain promotion. And the final 3-3 gave the ticket to the team from Valencia! Because the regulation in the country’s playoffs is clear: In the event of a tie after the two matches, extra time follows but no penalty shootout, since if there is still a tie, then whoever finished higher advances. The most awesome thing is that each team finished the championship in their group with 69 points. However Eldense finished 2nd in the standings of the first group and its subsidiary Real in the 3rd place of the second…
In pure racing, o Marin in the 26th minute, he opened the scoring for Castilla, with Doctor eight minutes later to give his team a two-goal lead. However, the home side managed to pull one back just before the end of the half with the Nieto (45’+2′) and put “fire” in the game. THE Bernalin fact, in the 68th minute he scored 2-2 and the match eventually went to overtime.
In the extra half hour, Real Madrid Castilla regained the lead with a penalty by Aribas at 109′ and seemed to be holding on to the promotion. Nevertheless, Mr Ortuno in the 114th minute it equalized at 3-3, with the score remaining that way until the finale and Eldense getting a historic promotion.
THE Dimitris Stamatakisa young goalkeeper who belongs to Atletico Madrid but is on loan at Eldense, was left on the bench.
