Liga Santafesina: Deportivo Santa Rosa win promotion to Primera A | OneFootball

Deportivo Santa Rosa drew with Banco 0 to 0 in regular time, but won 4 to 3 on penalties and will play in the Primera A of the Santafesina League in 2026.

Deportivo Santa Rosa defeated Banco Provincial 4 to 3 on penalties in the final and secured the second promotion to the first league. The match ended 0 to 0. It was held at the Nery Pumpido complex, in front of a large crowd, with Carlos Córdoba officiating and on a very hot day.

The Santafesina Football League had one of the most anticipated days of its season, as the second promotion from Primera B to the top category was achieved. With Las Flores II having secured their ticket after being crowned Apertura champions, it was now the turn of La Casita, where in a unique, decisive, and tense match, they managed to defeat Banco Provincial in the penalty shootout.

In the penalty shootout, for Deportivo Santa Rosa, Germán Ponce, Bruno Espíndola, Leandro Martínez, and Gianluca Ledesma scored, while Mariano Rodríguez saved Santino Fisicaro's shot. For the banking team, Javier Salinas, Alan Chamorro, and Alexandro Lammertyn scored. Alejo Córdoba missed a shot over the crossbar.

In regular time, they had finished 0 to 0, but in the penalties, it was a victory for the La Casita team. On the other hand, Banco Provincial, a team that had found consistency at the end of the season with a very young squad, built a campaign that brought them to this opportunity, which they could not seize.

La Casita closed an unforgettable day. A historic day. Undoubtedly the best moment in the club's history, culminating in the much-desired promotion. An achievement that belongs to the players and the coaching staff, but undoubtedly would not have been possible without the support of their directors, who work tirelessly like Adolfo Martínez and Ana María Leiva.

The Altos del Valle team accumulated their sixth consecutive lost final for promotion. Last week, they lost to Las Flores II in a penalty shootout 5 to 4, after having drawn 0 to 0 in regular time, also at the complex that the local football governing body owns in Monte Vera.
