Leganés returns to First Division heaven after four years of ‘Hypertension’

Leganés returns to the First Division and will draw a historic stage in the elite of Spanish football. It will be the second time in history that Madrid has five teams in LaLiga, almost on par with cities like London, which has a total of seven clubs in the Premier League. Four years later, the cucumber blue and white will once again taste the sweetness of the First Division and they do so as leaders of the commercially known as the Hypermotion League and on social networks baptized as ‘Hypertension’ due to their enormous emotion from start to finish.

A category that breaks any pool and is an amusement park for the neutral spectator. Valladolid had said goodbye to her last weekend after signing the first direct promotion. The team from Madrid, the team with the fewest goals scored in the category (27 goals conceded) and who began the season without being favorites at all, are awarded the other place that gives access to the highest category of national football as champion, after 32 days of direct promotion, 29 as leaders and of them, 26 consecutively.

The last day, which was played in a unified schedule for those who still had options to get on that last car of the promotion train as a playoff, determined that the winner will be Leganés after comfortably beating Elche in Butarque, Valladolid finished second of the criticized Pezzolano, a situation that few understand from outside Castilla, while Eibar, Espanyol, Sporting de Gijón, the team that had the worst chance of qualifying according to the probabilities of each of the protagonists, and Oviedo, benefiting from the defeat of a Racing de Santander, which was trading higher in recent days, will compete for the third promotion spot through the exciting qualifying rounds implemented in the competition since the 2010-11 season.

Meanwhile, in the area below, Villarreal B, Alcorcón and Andorra already knew days before that they will be relegated. The fourth hot spot was determined with a direct duel between Mirandés and Amorebieta, which was expensive for the people from Burgos, confirming for another year their presence in the Second Division and the Basques’ farewell to professional football.
