The last promotion of Real Madrid Castilla to the Second Division dates from the 2011-2012 season, in which the team led by Alberto Toril was also proclaimed champion of Segunda B with a team in which Dani Carvajal, Lucas Vázquez and Nacho played. Eight seasons later, Fernández again celebrate a success at the Alfredo Di Stéfano stadium, this time with the first team. The jewel in the crown of the Ciudad Deportiva de Valdebebas, inaugurated in 2006, has been the habitual home of the first white branch and Juvenil A, for their UEFA Youth League matches, but after the resumption of LaLiga Santander due to the stoppage caused Due to the coronavirus, it has also been for the team led by the French Zinedine Zidane, since the club has taken advantage of the absence of public in the meetings to advance the modernization works of the Santiago Bernabéu.
A change that came in handy for Madrid because it allowed him to leave behind the irregularity shown in the home games and, after the victory won this Thursday against Villarreal (2-1) thanks to the double of the French Karim Benzema, in the 28th minute and 77, the latter with a penalty, have managed to conquer the 34th league title in their history. Thus, Carvajal, Lucas Vázquez and Nacho will relive moments of that May 27, 2012 in which after prevailing over Cádiz by a 5-1 aggregate they achieved promotion to the Second Division which they later endorsed with the category title after winning by 6 -0 to Mirandés. A historic Castilla with a generation in which recognized names in the world of soccer played such as Jesé Rodríguez, Álvaro Morata, Joselu Mato, Omar Mascarell and Álex Fernández, among others. Of course, the celebration of the LaLiga Santander will have little to do with that of that promotion since, in addition to being a more significant title, the absence of public in the stands of Di Stéfano and the sanitary protocol to prevent the spread of the coronavirus they make it all colder.
