0:0 against Luis Ramos and Guijuelo’s 300th goal… and everything will be decided in Las Gaunas

Union Deportiva Logrones drew 0-0 with Guijuelo in the first leg of the semi-finals of the playoffs for promotion to Primera RFEF. With the exceptional support of 300 White and Red fans watching the game as best they could in the visitors’ backfield, Diego Martinez’s men withstood pressure from the locals and tried to adapt to the uneven and hard artificial grass of Luis Ramos. The head-to-head meeting with the Salamanca team now has twelve precedents: four Riohan wins, six draws and two defeats. The tie will be decided in Las Gonas next Sunday, the 19th.

After a drab first half in which the defense and Quique Royo held the score 0-0, Logrones slowed down the game in the second, trying to get the ball to the ground and widen the field, although without clear chances. Guijuelo’s direct play made central defenders Titi and Ugarte work, and they performed brilliantly. From scratch they wanted to grow, but it took the world to get a few touches in a row. The best: the result. Because another draw at 120 minutes serves to ensure passage to the final thanks to the advance, and the strength shown at the back allows it to withstand the attacks of the opponent.

It is imperative to generate more in the three quarters and in the attacking phase, but Luis Ramos is not like Las Gaunas. In Logroño, only Valencia managed to win this season in 90 minutes of normal time, which was their first victory in the Copa del Rey with a score of 0:2. Union Deportiva Logrones recorded an unbeaten league season at their stadium for the first time in their history. And at home the series will be resolved. 300 Guijuelo players and many other red and white players will emerge from the stands. The fortress of the Diego quarter and its inhabitants. Together we will take the first step towards achieving the goal of the First RFEF.
