E:It’s very, very comforting that in a league where almost everything is predictable, where some invest millions of dollars, in an era of slates, blocks and cheap Panenkism, those two modest and unassuming teams, one from the centuries-old district of Rayo and the other from Leganes, almost all their lives in the lower categories, are important and central in a League that has few surprises. deliver
It is very comforting that real football is traditional football that the ball is superior to passing, recovery, interior passages, widening the pitch… and an endless number of words that are meaningless. Rayo’s draw against the mighty Real is a huge credit to a team with one of the lowest budgets in Europe. one in elite football, but with a president who alone has a great coach in the face of all the elements, with dedicated players and a physical coach. , Javi Mallo, who has them as motorbikes.Players like Isi Palazon, who have been called up to one day with Luis de la Fuente, make Rayo a team that plays very well and is feared by the greats when they visit the ancient Vallecas Rayo for bringing us back traditional football.
And Leganes against Barca is spectacular. Borja Jimenez’s team has not much, but many merits. In practice, with the base of the Second Division, they have achieved something important, that people return to Butarque, that the Pepineros feel happy, and that, in any case, and with a great goal from Sergio Gonzalez, they beat the league leader. Nobody, absolutely nobody thought, that Leganes can achieve something positive at Montjuic, and they performed as they are, a great team. No great figures, but a a group with dedicated players, fighters who, in addition to intimidating and defeating, even managed to defeat the Flicks.
Rayo and Lega, Lega and Rayo save the League. A tribute to the humble, those from the neighborhood, those from the southern zone. They have shown that they know how to play and respect lifelong football.
