Impressive invasion of fans in Espanyol’s promotion to Primera :: Olé

Leganés and Valladolid had already taken tickets to the First Division of Spain. There was one spot left. Real Oviedo and Espanyol reached the final of the reduced mini (Gijón and Eibar fell by the wayside) and The one that got promoted was the Catalan team, which had been relegated in 2023. And the celebration was not overlooked.

Oviedo, with Argentine Santiago Colombatto as starter, had won 1-0 in the first leg, but could not maintain the advantage in the rematch. Espanyol ended up winning 2-0 at the El Prat stadium and secured promotion.

As soon as the final whistle was heard, a wave of fans invaded the playing field. Awesome. They came down from the stands and took over the green grass. Like a movie, hugging and greeting the heroes of this day. Total ecstasy.

Thus, Espanyol returns to First Division and will play the classic with Barcelona again. “Congratulations on winning promotion to First Division. We will see you next season in the League,” the Blaugranas wrote on their X account.
