La Liga: Real Oviedo promoted thanks to Santi Cazorla, 25 years later

 

What a story for Real Oviedo ! 25 years later, the Spanish club will return to the top flight after a wild night. Facing Mirandés, the club from the capital of Asturias quickly conceded the opening goal on a header from their Argentinian striker Panichelli (1-0, 16th). This put their promotion bid in doubt after conceding a 1-0 defeat in the first leg. But 40-year-old legend Santi Cazorla first equalized from the penalty spot to give his team hope (1-1, 39th).

Before Oviedo took the lead thanks to a goal from Chaira (2-1, 52nd). The two teams were then tied on the scoreboard over the two matches, and went into extra time. And it was another experienced player, Francisco Portillo, (35 years old), who gave the home team victory (3-1, 103rd) and above all qualification in a crazy end to the match, where three players were sent off. 25 years after their last season in La Liga , the Carbayones will therefore return to the elite of Spanish football in the 2025-2026 season, alongside Levante and Elche.
