As if it was today… four years ago Leganés won against Bilbao Athletic at San Mamés (1-2) and continued its way to promotion. Szymanowski and Gabriel goals allowed the pepineros to sum up three key points.

It was the 36^th matchday of the season and Leganés was leader. It was a great opportunity for the team after Alavés and Real Zaragoza, the team’s immediate chasers on the table didn’t get three points on their matches. Asier Garitano’s initial squad was: Serantes, Bustinza, Insua, Mantovani, César Soriano, Sastre, Timor, Omar Ramos, Gabriel, Szymanowski and Asdrúbal. Rubén Peña, Ruiz de Galarreta and Víctor Díaz played on the second half.

Bilbao Athletic started winning the game with a goal scored by Santamaría on the first half. Leganés reacted on the second half with a goal by Szymanowski who ran with the ball and kicked it into the net. Some minutes later Gabriel scored through a header after a corner kick by Omar Ramos. Leganés’ fans had the opportunity to have another reason to celebrate on May 2^nd, Madrid Community holiday.

Serrantes had to save the team on a couple of opportunities after Aketxe’s shots to the goal. At the end it was a win for the pepineros who continued their way to promotion.
