Second division B play-offs, finals second
leg
Promoted: Sevilla
Atlético, Córdoba, Racing Ferrol and Eibar.
Sevilla B side Sevilla
Atlético finally made it up to the second division at the fourth
attempt after beating Burgos 1-0 in the group A final. Team captain Lolo
headed the only goal in the tie following a corner in extra time to add another
page to the Andalusians' best ever season.
Córdoba return
to the second division just two years after going down, the Andalusians drawing
1-1 at Huesca in their group B final to go through 3-1 on aggregate.
Camacho headed the home side into the lead on the night, but Dani converted a
penalty on the stroke of half time to level the scores, and then had a second
penalty saved late on.
Rayo Vallecano will
have to wait another year after they lost their group D final 2-0 to
Eibar. A one goal lead from the first leg was cancelled out when
Alaña fired a free kick past Alberto midway through the first half. And
just three minutes later Romo headed in Codina's cross to take the Basque side
back up at the first attempt. (24.06.07)
Racing Ferrol are the
first side to be promoted to the second division despite losing 1-0 to
Alicante in the second leg of the group C final. The Galicians return to
the second flight at the first attempt thanks to a 2-0 win in the first leg. It
was hard work though, the referee disallowing two goals for the locals early on
and Capi scoring the only goal on the half hour mark. The other three group
finals take place tomorrow. (23.06.07) |
