There is a generation in Zubieta that will soon be the paradigm within Real. Reaching a rank of such caliber has a selective range, not everyone will get the mark before and after that will mean qualifying for Europe for the first time. Therefore, the Champions League ticket that will soon seal in the women’s section is historic. A convinced group will go for his conquest, with ambition as his flag.
This Sunday’s victory (Zubieta, 12:00) against Rayo Vallecano, who is mathematically relegated, will ensure Real finish in the top three positions. It is still possible that three points or an tie, depending on the third result, guarantees second place.
La Real defended its favorite status, with six rental points with three games remaining compared to Atlético de Madrid, who visited Levante; Real Madrid, which hosts the Madrid CFF; and Granadilla, who plays Lezama against Athletic. All the many draws in points favor Real: so the victory is worth safe access to Europe this Sunday.
The template includes a conspiracy to do it all. “There will be people celebrating the Champions League, but not the team: we want second place, to be champions of other leagues,” proclaims the captain and flagship, Nerea Eizagirre. “A lot of people will say crazy, but once you’re there, it looks different,” launches the Tolosa for MD. Gemma Gili, a cornerstone in Natalia Arroyo’s scheme, agrees “one hundred percent”, arguing that “we should be ambitious, without disagreeing”.

Eizagirre supports the theory of the next match, but stops at an interesting retrospective, since he spoke to Aperribay: “I told him that the past year of the Champions was not worth it,” Gipuzkoan said. crack. “That’s why we talk a lot about growth, about young women constantly taking steps,” she explains, happy because “we’re building a cool team,” she said. In Zubieta, it feels like Europe is close and Real are not shaking their pulse for the lofty goal: ‘Here we go’.

This is the difference between being runner-up in the Iberdrola League or finishing third. The ‘silver medal’ constitutes a single previous Champions League, while the ‘bronze’ is the equivalent of overcoming a very demanding home run.
Gemma guarantees “I’ve been lucky enough to play and reach the Champions League final” to support her code words for the future. To get an idea of how Real will defend itself in the European framework. “We played high -level games, enough to think that an important role could be played”, defended the native Castellón. “Being aware” -he clarified- “that the first round is very difficult and this will be our first year”. In any case, “we will be ready for everything”, believes txuri urdin.
Gemma admitted it would be “nice and special” to enter Europe with Real, “a club where history and effort are highly valued”. The “fun” would be “massive” because “it’s a team that deserves it”.
