Weekend roundup at La Academia (25-26 October) | OneFootball

Another weekend has come to an end at La Academia, so let's review everything that happened over these two days for the rojiblancos:

ATLÉTICO MADRILEÑO

Fernando Torres' side bounced back from the setback in Alicante with a new home victory. The victim? CE Europa, who until this matchday, were the leaders of group 2 in the Primera Federación. It was a more closely contested match than the scoreline might suggest, but thanks to the effectiveness and spark of Iker Luque and Arnau Ortiz on the wings, and the defensive solidity of Aleksa Puric, Daniel Martínez, and Salvador Esquivel—who was once again crucial—the team prevailed.

The rojiblancos are once again deservedly at the top of their group.

ATLÉTICO DE MADRID C

Manel Ruano's team came close to winning away at Leganés B, but had to settle for a 2-2 draw, picking up a point in the fight for the top spot in group 7 of the Tercera Federación. The pepinero reserve team took the lead in the early stages, Sergio Vinatea assisted Javi Alonso for the equalizer, and Jesús Barrios made it 1-2 from the penalty spot after a penalty won by David Arza and Vinatea.

The team drops to fourth place, as Móstoles URJC came from behind away at Tres Cantos and Las Rozas increased their lead by scoring a stoppage-time winner in Parla.

ATLÉTICO DE MADRID JUVENIL A

The news we were most eager to receive: Ángel Donato's team won away in the División de Honor Juvenil. Visiting Rayo Vallecano at a different ground than the usual home of the Franja, Rubén Gómez scored to make it 0-1, but the opponent equalized shortly after the start of the second half. Gabriel Obama, who was playing his first minutes with the team, scored the definitive 1-2 shortly after missing a clear chance. Striker things.

The team picks up another 3 points and heads into the week in good spirits, knowing that two more home games are coming up: first, Burgos in the league, then Royale Union Saint-Gilloise in the fourth round of the UEFA Youth League.

ATLÉTICO DE MADRID JUVENIL B

Javier Peñas' side won 5-2 against Rayo Vallecano, despite being 0-2 down at the start of the second half. The goals came from Adriá Bravo (twice), Guillermo Trujillano, Brayan de la Cruz, and Cheick Pouye. The Liga Nacional Juvenil remains tightly contested, but the team keeps fighting and wins again at home.

YOUTH CATEGORIES

Cadete A won 3-0 against Rayo Vallecano with goals from Nico Carrasco, Álvaro Fernández, and Julen Sánchez; Cadete B drew 1-1 in Torrejón with a goal from Hugo García, and Infantil A lost 2-0 away to Rayo Vallecano.
