Week 27 :arrow:

Sat. 27 Feb. :arrow:

18:00 :arrow:

Llagostera 0,Girona 1 They tied 2-2 in Montilivi in Sept. Llago is next-to-last, six points back of the lowest team not in the drop. Girona is eight points above the drop. Alex Granell wins it with a pk at 83'; Llago falls into last place.

Numancia 1, Alcorcón 1 They tied 1-1 in Santo Domingo in Sept. Numancia is eight points above the drop; Alcor is back of a playoff spot only on GD. In the snow in Soria, Alegría gives Numancia the lead at 15'; Máyor ties for Alcor at 75'. Alcor, at least temporarily, is in the last playoff spot.

Huesca-Mallorca Postponed, bad weather. Huesca won 0-1 in Son Moix in Sept. Both are one point above the drop. Heavy rains postpone the game until a date to be named later.

Bilbao Ath. 4, Ponferradina 2 Ponfe won 1-0 in the Toralín in Sept. Bilbao is nine points back of the lowest team not in the drop. Ponfe has fallen on hard times; they're just two points above the drop. Bilbao moves out of last place--goals by Aketxe at 25', 35' and 77', and one by Santamaría at 54' carry the freight; Acorán at 42' and Melero at 70' score for Ponfe.

Córdoba 0, Osasuna 1 Good game; very important to both teams. Córdoba is fourth, three points back of an automatic promo spot. Osasuna is eighth, back of a playoff spot only on GD. They played to a 0-0 tie in the Reyno de Navarra in Sept. Alex Berenguer scores at 92' to give Osasuna a huge win--they're now tied on points with Oviedo and Córdoba for third place.

Sun. 28 Feb. :arrow:

Leganés 2, Alavés 0 Game of the Week, as #2 hosts #1. They tied 0-0 in Mendizorroza in Sept. Alavés has a two-point lead over a Leganés team that is the only team not to have lost at home this season. Change of leader :!: :!: Goals by Rubén Peña at 18' and Borja Lázaro at 89' lift Leganés, "Los Pepineros," to the top spot by one point over Alavés. Have the "Cucumber Growers" ever led Second Division this late in the season :?: Pretty safe to answer "no." Can this team really win automatic promotion :?: Stay tuned . . .

17:00 :arrow:

Zaragoza 3, Lugo 1 They tied 0-0 in the Anxo Carro in Sept. Zaragoza is 10th, just two points shy of a playoff spot. Lugo is two points back of Zaragoza. Ferreiro gave Lugo the lead at 74'; Zaragoza answered with goals by Angel Rodríguez at 83', Lanzarote at 84', and Dongou at 90'+. Zaragoza stays in the hunt; is now seventh, two points back of a playoff spot.

Almería 1, Albacete 0 Alba won 3-0 in the Carlos Belmonte in Sept. Both of these teams are in the drop; Alba is three points ahead of Almería. Fofo scores at 93' to give Almería the win. They're still in the drop, tied with Alba on points but Alba, also still in the drop, leads them on H2H.

Mirandés 1, Tenerife 2 Tete won 3-0 in the Heliodoro in Sept. Mirandés is in the last playoff spot; Tete is seven points above the drop. Nano scores at 7' and 54' to give Tete a 0-2 lead; Eguaras makes it close with a pk at 80'.

Nástic 1, Valladolid 1 They tied 0-0 in Sept. Nástic is fifth, four points shy of an automatic playoff spot. Valladolid is in mid-table, three points back of a playoff spot. Achille Emaná gives Nástic the lead at 22'; Rennella ties at 25' for Valladolid.

Oviedo 3, Elche 0 Good game :!: They tied 1-1 in the Martínez Valero in Sept. Oviedo is third, three points back of an automatic playoff spot. Elche is ninth, but they're just a point back of the last playoff spot. Oviedo wins by their biggest margin of the year on goals by Mamadou Koné at 76, an own goal by José Angel at 86', and by Pablo Hervias at 90'. Oviedo is third, two points back of an automatic promotion spot and three points off the league lead.

Week 28 :arrow:

Sat. 5 Mar. :arrow:

18:00 :arrow:

Mallorca 1, Oviedo 0 They tied 1-1 in the Nuevo Carlos Tartiere in Oct. Oviedo hasn't lost in 12 games; they're in third place, three points off the league lead. Mallorca is one point above the drop; they now have a game in hand, which will be made up in Huesca in April. Dani Bautista sees red for Oviedo at 37'; David Fernández scores an own goal at 50' to give Mallorca the win. Oviedo loses for the first time since November.

Bilbao Athletic 1, Córdoba 2 Córdoba won 1-0 in the Nuevo Arcángel in Oct. Bilbao is now above last place on GD, but they're six points below the lowest team not in the drop. Córdoba dropped to sixth place with the home loss to Osasuna. Florín Andone at 18' and Fidel Chaves at 61' with a pk give Córdoba a 0-2 lead; Aketxe cuts the margin at 89'--too little, too late.

Girona 2, Mirandés 0 Mirandés won 1-0 in Anduva in Oct. Girona is in mid-table, now nine points above the drop and six points back of a playoff spot. Mirandés is now three points shy of a playoff spot after the loss at home to Tenerife. Kiko at 48' and Cristian Herrera at 71' give Girona a 2-0 win.

Elche 1, Llagostera 1 Llago beat Elche 4-1 :shock: in Palamós in Oct., but they're dead last now, albeit on GD. Elche is in mid-table, four points shy of a playoff spot. Querol gives Llago the lead at 66'; Sergio León ties at 84' for Elche.

Lugo 2, Osasuna 0 Osasuna won 4-0 in the Reyno de Navarra in Oct. Osasuna is in fifth place after their last-minute win in Córdoba. Lugo is 14th, 10 points above the drop and seven points shy of a playoff spot. Lugo wins on goals by Dealbert at 74' and Caballero at 80'.

Sun. 6 Mar. :arrow:

Alavés 0, Zaragoza 0 Game of the Week. Zaragoza beat Alavés 1-0 in the Romareda in Oct. Zaragoza had a great month of February, winning three and tying one to get back into contention for a playoff spot--they're now seventh, just two points shy of a playoff spot. Alavés dropped to second place with the loss at Leganés last weekend. Scoreless tie in Mendizorroza leaves Alavés in second place, back of Leganés on H2H; Zaragoza will remain just shy of a playoff spot.

17:00 :arrow:

Valladolid 0, Huesca 1 They tied 1-1 in El Alcoraz in Oct. Valladolid is in mid-table, five points shy of a playoff spot. Huesca is one point above the drop; has a game in hand that won't be played until April. Machís at 26' scores to give Huesca a very important win.

Alcorcón 1, Nástic 1 Alcor won 0-2 in Oct. Alcor is two points below a playoff spot. Nástic is in fourth place, five points shy of automatic promotion. Campaña gives Alcor the lead at 68'; Madinda ties for Nástic at 82'.

Ponferradina 1, Numancia 0 Numancia won 1-0 in Los Pajaritos in Oct. Ponfe has fallen on very hard times, now two points above the drop; they haven't won in their last eleven games. Numancia, the King of the Tie with 14 of them, is in 15th place. Basha scores at 75' to give Ponfe a very welcome win.

Tenerife 0, Almería 0 They tied 2-2 in the Juegos Mediterráneos in Oct. Tete has climbed to 13th place, now 10 points above the drop. Almería is 20th, now just a point back of the lowest team not in the drop. Scoreless in the Heliodoro Rodríguez López.

Albacete 0, Leganés 3 Leganés, the "Pepineros," won 3-2 in Butarque in Oct. Alba is the top of the drop, a point back of Mallorca and Huesca, who have a game in hand against each other. The Pepineros are flyin' high, leading the league :!: :shock: :shock: The Pepineros take the lead at 2' on a goal by Borja Lázaro; they make it 0-2 via Julián Ramos Omar at 44'. If they hold on, they'll lead second-place Alavés by three points plus H2H. They not only hold on, they increase the margin, as Rubén Peña scores at 59' to make it 0-3. The fans are goin' wild in the cucumber patch :!:

Week 29 takes us into the final third of the season :arrow:

Sat. 12 March :arrow:

18:00 :arrow:

Numancia 3, Bilbao Ath. 2 They tied 0-0 in San Mamés in Oct. Numancia has fallen to 15th place, eight points above the drop and eight points below the playoffs. Bilbao is in last place, nine points from escape from the drop. Villalibre gives the visitors the lead at 6'; Alex Alegría ties at 43' for Numancia. Julio Alvarez scores at 51' and again with a pk at 67' to make it 3-1; Guarrotxena cuts it to 3-2 at 80' with a pk.

Zaragoza 1, Albacete 0 Zaragoza won 1-3 in the Carlos Belmonte in Oct. Zaragoza is seventh, one point from a playoff spot. Alba has fallen to 20th place, four points from escape from the drop. Last ditch win for Zaragoza, as Sergio Gil comes through at 93' with the winner. Zaragoza climbs, for the moment, to fifth place with the win.

Almería 1, Girona 0 They tied 1-1 in Montilivi in Oct. Almería is the top of the drop, three points from the lowest team not in the drop. Girona has climbed to ninth place, just three points from a playoff spot. Kike gives Almería the lead at 15'. Girona was better but Almería wins it to tie Mallorca and Huesca (both yet to play) on points--Almería is still in the drop on GD.

Mirandés 1, Elche 0 Mirandés blew 'em out 1-4 in the Martínez Valero in Oct. Mirandés has fallen to 10th place, three points back of the playoffs. Elche trails Mirandés only on GD. Kijera gives Mirandés the lead at 43'. Sergio León, top scorer in Second Division with 17 goals scored after today, comes through at 59' and 65' to win it for Elche.

Oviedo 2, Valladolid 4 Oviedo won 2-3 in the Nuevo Zorrilla in Oct. Despite their first loss in a dozen games, Oviedo retained third place last weekend. Valladolid is now five points back of a playoff spot. At 15', Juan Villar gives Valladolid the lead--0-1. At 20', Mamadou Koné ties for Oviedo--1-1. At 23', Villar puts Valladolid back in front--1-2. At 30', Roger makes it 1-3. And Juan Villar completes a hat trick at 52', pretty much icing it. Mamadou Koné does get one back at 66', but the final is 2-4. Oviedo is likely to drop a couple of places tomorrow.

Sun. 13 March :arrow:

Osasuna 3, Alavés 1 Game of the Week. Alavés won 3-0 in Mendizorroza in Oct. Alavés is in second place; they haven't scored in their last two games. Osasuna is in the last playoff spot; probably have to win to avoid dropping out of the playoff spots. Not long ago, Alavés looked like a lock for automatic promotion, but they're now 0-3-2 in their last five games; while they're still in second place, they play in Córdoba the last weekend in March, and a loss there could leave them . . . well, things are so tight that they could actually drop out of the playoffs if they lose their next two. In this game, they took the lead on a goal by Raúl García at 19', but then Roberto Torres converted a pk at 26'--1-1--; Urko Vera made it 2-1 at 42'; and Nino made it 3-1 at 45'. Osasuna thus assures themselves a playoff spot at week's end, currently even on points with Oviedo and Córdoba (the latter yet to play) in third place.

17:00 :arrow:

Huesca 1, Alcorcón 0 Huesca won 0-1 in Santo Domingo in Oct. Huesca is three points above the drop. Alcor is one point below a playoff spot. Jesús Valentín scores the winner at 28' for Huesca.

Nástic 1, Ponferradina 1 They tied 2-2 in the Toralín in Oct. Nástic is in fifth place, five points shy of an automatic promotion spot. Ponfe won for the first time in months last weekend; they're now four points above the drop. An own goal by Molina at 3' makes it 0-1; Naranjo ties for Nástic at 49'.

Córdoba 1, Lugo 2 Córdoba won 1-2 in the Anxo Carro in Oct. Córdoba is fourth, three points from an automatic playoff spot. Lugo is four points shy of a playoff spot. Another home loss for Córdoba, as Carlos Fernández at 10' and Caballero at 31' give Lugo a lead of 0-2; Florín Andone cuts the margin at 61', but Lugo holds on.

Llagostera 3, Mallorca 0 Mallorca won 1-0 in Son Moix in Oct. Llago is next-to-last, eight points back of Mallorca and (relative) safety. Mallorca is three points above the drop. Juanjo at 31' and 61' and Pitu at 58' give Llago some hope, although they're still deep in the drop, into which Mallorca falls with this loss on GD, although they'll make up a game-in-hand on Wednesday.

Leganés 0, Tenerife 1 They tied 0-0 in the Heliodoro Rodríguez López in Oct. Leganés is seemingly on a march straight to First Division. They now have a six-point lead over third-place Oviedo. They've won four in a row at a time when their direct rivals are having problems with consistency. Tete is 14th, six points below a playoff spot. :shock: as Leganés loses at home for the first time in one year minus one day. Javi Lara scored for Tete with a free kick at 63'. Coulda been worse, as Tete missed a pk at 73'. All of the top four teams in Second Divisiion lose this weekend--and the fifth place team tied, so rankings change little.

3. Oviedo----------------46 points; +41-34 At Alcorcón.

21. Llagostera------------25 points; +26-40 At Valladolid.
22. Bilbao Ath.------------21 points; +21-36 Hosts Nástic.

Four points separate an automatic promotion spot (second) and a "thanks anyway" spot (seventh) :!:

Edit: Wednesday's make-up game produced the following result :arrow: Huesca 1, Mallorca 2 Sissoko at 13' and Joan Oriol at 22' gave Mallorca a lead of 0-2; Samuel Saiz came with too little, too late at 90' to make it 1-2 at the final whistle.

Results now added to "The drop" above.

Week 30 :arrow:

Sat. 19 March :arrow:

18:00 :arrow:

Valladolid 3, Llagostera 0 Llago won 3-1 in Palamós in Oct. Valladolid is in mid-table, four points shy of a playoff spot. Llago is next-to-last, seven points from safety. Roger at 33', and Rennella at 72' and 89' give Valladolid an "easy" win that keeps them in the hunt for a playoff spot.

Alcorcón 1, Oviedo 0 Oviedo won 3-2 in the Nuevo Carlos Tartiere in Oct. Oviedo is still in third place, despite back-to-back losses. Alcor is ninth, three points back of a playoff spot and just four back of Oviedo. A pk by David Rodríguez at 70' gives Alcor the win and sends Oviedo, now coachless, down to their third straight defeat. The playoff picture is a real jumble with only two points separating third place and 11th place after Sunday's early game.

Alavés 0, Lugo 0 Lugo won 1-0 in the Anxo Carro in Oct. Alavés is second, three points back of first and the same distance ahead of third. Lugo is in mid-table, three points shy of a playoff spot. Despite not having won in their last six games, Alavés holds on to an automatic promotion spot and actually gains ground on third place (with Córdoba and Nástic yet to play on Sunday).

Albacete 3, Osasuna 1 Osasuna won 1-0 in the Reyno de Navarra in Oct. Alba is in the drop, four points from safety; Osasuna is fourth, three points from an automatic promotion spot. Alba is still in the drop after this big win, but their chances of staying up have improved greatly. Goals by Pulido at 20'--1-0, Federico at 32'--2-0, Urko Vera at 42'--2-1, and Rubén Cruz (pk) at 87'--3-1.

Elche 0, Almería 0 Elche won 2-3 in the Juegos Mediterráneos in Oct. Almería is finally out of the drop, although that could end today (Wed. 16 March) when the postponed Huesca-Mallorca game is played. Elche is two points shy of a playoff spot. Scoreless tie in the Martínez Valero.

Sun. 20 March :arrow:

Tenerife 0, Zaragoza 0 Zaragoza won 2-0 in the Romareda in Oct. Tete is 10 points above the drop and six points back of a playoff spot. Zaragoza has finally climbed into a playoff spot--on GD. Scoreless tie in the Heliodoro lifts Zaragoza to third place, although both Córdoba and Nástic could pass Zaragoza in Sunday's later games.

17:00 :arrow:

Girona 1, Leganés 1 They tied 2-2 in Butarque in Oct. Girona is five points from a playoff spot. Leganés is on top of the league, despite their first home loss in over a year last weekend. Lekic gives Girona the lead at 61'; Timor ties for Leganés at 69'.

Mallorca 1, Mirandés 1 They tied 2-2 in Anduva in Oct. Mallorca is in the drop on GD; could rise above the drop in their makeup game at Huesca. Mirandés has fallen to 13th place, five points from a playoff spot. Ortuño gives Mallorca the lead at 31'; Sangalli ties at 43'.

Ponferradina 2, Huesca 1 They tied 1-1 in the Alcoraz in Oct. Ponfe is two points above the drop and one point back of Huesca. Sergio Aguza makes it 1-0 at 6'; Juanjo Camacho ties at 47'; Jebor wins it for Ponfe at 60'.

Bilbao Ath. 0, Nástic 4 Bilbao is buried in last place, 11 points from safety. Nástic has fallen to seventh place, below a playoff spot on GD. Blowout win lifts Nástic to third place; goals by Naranjo at 25', Arburjania at 57', and Emaná at 70' and 80'.

Numancia 1, Córdoba 1 Córdoba won 3-2 in the Nuevo Arcángel in Oct. Córdoba is fifth, even on points with the third- and fourth-place teams. Numancia is 15th, eight points above the drop. Pedro Ríos gives Córdoba the lead at 25'; David Concha ties for Numancia at 44'.

Week 31 :arrow:

Sat. 26 Mar. :arrow:

18:00 :arrow:

Nastic 1, Numancia 0 Win moves Nastic into second place, at least until Alaves plays Sunday.

Huesca 1, Bilbao Ath. 2 Bilbao stays last despite win; Huesca may end weekend in drop.

Leganes 0, Elche 0 Tie will keep Leganes on top.

Osasuna 0, Tenerife 0 Tie moves Osasuna into playoff spot--for the moment.

Oviedo 3, Ponferradina 0 Oviedo back on track after three straight losses--climbs provisionally to fourth place.

Sun. 27 Mar. :arrow:

Cordoba 1, Alaves 2 Game of the Week. All goals in second half. Alaves took the lead, Cordoba tied, Alaves scored the winner. Cordoba fails again at home; Alaves takes back second place and automatic promo spot. Cordoba could fall out of playoff spots for first time in months.

17:00 :arrow: There were some really surprising results this evening :!:

Almeria 1, Mallorca 1

Llagostera 4, Alcorcon 0 Fighting the drop, Llago blows out Alcor, which is fighting for the playoffs.

Lugo 2, Albacete 1

Mirandes 4, Valladolid 1 Mirandes had been mediocre of late; Valladolid seemed to be making a run for the playoffs . . .

Zaragoza 0, Girona 3 :shock: :shock: And here's the real shocker: Girona repeats the score from last season's playoffs . . . but last season, Zaragoza won the return leg 1-4 to advance. So Girona gets a measure of revenge . . .

Week 32:

Sat. 2 Apr:

18:00:

Alcorcon 1, Mirandes 0 Alcor is two points back of playoffs, Mirandes is a point further back.

Elche 2, Zaragoza 1 Big game for visitors, a point back of playoffs. Zaragoza took an early lead, but Sergio Leon scored twice to give Elche the win.

Mallorca 3, Leganes 0 Leganes needs win to stay in first place. Two games ago, the Pepineros were flying high, but two losses mean they could fall behind Alaves and be even with Nastic after Sunday's games.

Ponferradina-Llagostera Both fight to avoid drop.

Sun. 3 Apr:

Nastic 4, Cordoba 4 Game of the week--#3 takes on #6. Game lives up to its billing and then some, as Cordoba takes the lead on four occasions, but Nastic comes back to tie each time. Achille Emana scored the definitive tying goal with a pk at 87'; Florin Andone had a hat trick for Cordoba. Nastic fails to climb into an automatic promo spot.

17:00:

Girona 0, Osasuna 0 Girona makes strong push for playoffs.

Numancia 3, Huesca 2

Tenerife 1, Lugo 0

Valladolid 1, Almeria 1

Albacete 0, Alaves 1 Visitors need win to stay in automatic promo spot. And win they did! And they retook first place in the bargain!

Bilbao Ath. 2, Oviedo 1 San Mames not available until Monday; RFEF refuses permission to hold game in alternative site. Horrid result for Oviedo: misses huge chance to solidify position or move up.

Leganes with a big win to stay on top; Alaves ties to stay in automatic promo; Girona with a big road win . . . and Oviedo blows a big chance, losing at home to relegation-threatened Huesca.
