The calendar made Deportivo keep faith in salvation when it occupied the lowest position of the classification with only 10 points. The confrontations against direct rivals and the recovery of postponed games fed hope, and now the Blue and White team believes in the miracle of permanence more than ever. Much of the blame is on the young Athenea del Castillo, the burning nail that Depor clings to.
The Cantabrian attacker, barely 20 years old, was the author of two of the three goals that those of Manu Sánchez endorsed Rayo in the match of matchday 22 of the Primera Iberdrola disputed on Saturday. The rest was scored by Alba Merino, who is another of the highlights of the reaction that the blue and white team has been starring in.
The youth of one contrasts with the experience of another, but both always leave everything on the grass. Athenea, in fact, is having a great campaign despite Deportivo's poor results. Solares's team has scored six goals and distributed four assists, that is, it has participated directly in ten of the 26 goals that the Blue and Whites have scored..
“I have been fortunate to be able to help with goals … I keep the three points and the good feelings for the games to come,” he commented yesterday. Hard-working, committed, fast, with a goal and a self-confidence within the reach of very few, Athenea del Castillo may be the key to the goal of salvation, and she has a huge future ahead of her. Deportivo clings to his talent.
