From C team, definitely Alvaro Medran is one to watch, Gonzalo Melero and Adrian probably also going to be promoted. Jose Leon, Captain of Juvenil A and already regular with the C team might get a chance, however the core players will be the same ones, due to their still young age, I don't expect same amount of changes as the beginning of this year.
Real Madrid C did their part, they are safe 3 games left, after victory 4-1 at home against Conquense. Now everything depends on Castilla's survival. Central defender Hector, from Juvenil A side, debuted from the start in this game. Goalscorers- Dani Ramirez (2), Mariano and Alvaro Medran.
As soon as we got out of the hole, we started to dig for ourselves another one. 5 games our form and results are not encouraging. Today it was easy for Eibar, after they scored early. They just had to park the bus. Yes, Eibar is fighting for promotion, yes we were denied, probably, legitimate goal from Cabrera, but overall our slowness, lack of leaders and invention, lack of spirit - these things were missing today and we had that in abundance just not too long ago.
Another disappointing game in Soria , Numancia vs Castilla 0-0. FT. Defense line looked OK, specially Llorente , who's getting better and better, but upfront we had almost 0 opportunities. Brazilian, Willian Jose looks as a waste of money on our part, Sobrino is out of sorts all season, Jose Rodriguez is in worst form that I can remember and on top of that , Diaz keeps playing Jaime Romero ahead of Burgui, which is beyond of my understanding. Burgui is one of our top scorers, always dangerous and on the other hand -Romero is talent that did not blossom in Udinese and Granada so probably there is a reason why, Manolo. Results today did not go our way, almost all our direct rivals won, except Hercules. I feel we need a win, to recover our confidence.
We are 2 points from safety, everything is very tight in this division. Good example - Barcelona B - not too long ago they were our direct rivals, now they are in playoff promotion spot.
You can tell me how right I was about him any time now And remember I said I wasn't in love with his new position? How does it feel to have not only one of the best looking, sexiest and humble Internet GFs around but the wisest as well?
Must win game today for Castilla home against Jaén that are one place and two points ahead of us. Needless to say, if we win we're out of the relegation spots.
0-0 after 1st half. Jaen had more dangerous opportunities, something has to happen after the break, this is absolutely must win game. Remember boys, C team's fate - also depends on you.
Castilla - Real Jaen 1-1. FT. Diaz read my rant from last week and he made some changes today- he started Burgui ( he was most dangerous player for us) and Jose Rodriguez was on the bench( came in second half and was atrocious) . Lucas Vazquez scored for us. I think we were lucky that Jaen didn't try too hard to get 3 points today, they were attacking more dangerously, created more chances to score. Belima finally got debut in the second half and that shows you- Diaz is desperate, he did not use him even as a substitute in any games before. Situation is dire, but there are still 5 games left, let's hope for the best.
This is when I question (again) whether we let Toril go too soon, not just for fighting relegation but for what appears to be the complete stagnation of the development of some of our players minus maybe Llorente. I almost had kittens watching Jose Rodriguez play and this is the player a couple months ago people were saying deserved a first team spot next season. But we fight on and hope they can pull this together, five games is a lot.

Our boys ( Juvenil A) are through to the Final. They defeated Racing today 6-4. Opponent in the final will be either Malaga or Real Sociedad.
La Real will be our opponent in the final. Scorers today- Javi Munoz ( great future ahead of him, Lampard type of midfielder)(2), Agoney (2), Alvaro Jimenez ( very tricky winger, I have high hopes for him) and Marcos Legaz.

Girona vs Castilla 0-0. HT Jose Rodriguez, Casado and Jaime started today. Girona had more opportunities ( well we had none if you are not going to count Aguza's strike from long range that hit the post) ,but Pacheco was solid in the goal and Quini had very solid first half. Llorente was awful in the first half and as usual Willian Jose is useless. We need somehow to get 3 points today.
Girona vs Castilla 1-1. FT Fcuk , until 44 minute of the second half looked like finally we got that elusive, so much needed victory. Such a stupid goal to concede- long throw-in direct on to the head of Artuno, who scored. We went ahead right at the beginning of the second half, after marauding run from Quini ( MOTM for me). Pretty disgusted with Catalan public AGAIN, after Llorente's head injury. He tried to play, but suddenly fainted and in my eyes it looked scary and worrisome , but these garbage spectators kept whistling and Girona players kept arguing about my guess who's ball should be on the restart. Pathetic. When Tito died we all Madrid fans genuinely felt that it was our loss too, we felt sadness together. However , if something like that would happened to us, I am sure they only would feel happiness. What a narrow minded people.
http://www.realmadrid.com/noticias/...a-copa-de-campeones?pid=4500014175092&vauto=1 We are Champions of Spain!!!! Juvenil A defeated Real Sociedad after penalty shoot out ( 1-1 regular time, Marcos Legaz with the goal from penalty spot after our swashbuckling fullback Fran was brought down in the penalty area) . What a talented group of players! Still left for us this season -Copa del Rey title to defend.
Our Champions - Juvenil A today started defense of Copa Del Rey against Las Palmas. Unfortunately we lost 1st leg 2-0( last 16 stage), though we were better side and result flatters to Las Palmas. Second leg will be played next weekend in Madrid.
Is it only the bottom 3 that get relegated in the Liga Adelante? Or bottom 4 since they're 22 teams ..
