Recreativo de Huelva put an end to its journey through the Third Division and after an immaculate season achieved the desired direct promotion to the Second RFEF, fourth category of Spanish football, on a day in which the Andalusian team rested, but the 3-1 defeat of Utrera against Pozoblanco made them champions mathematically. Next Sunday they will be able to celebrate their promotion in front of their fans in the match against Córdoba B.
The Dean of Spanish football thus closes one of his saddest pages after hitting rock bottom last year when he was relegated to the Third Division after five years in Second B. They haven’t been in professional football for six seasons now., in the 14-15 season they were in Second. They will still have to go up two more categories to get there, but they have already managed to take the first step and get out of the fifth category of Spanish football.
During the season they have only let four draws escape, all of them away from Colombino, and two defeats, one at home in the only puncture at home throughout the season and precisely against his pursuer, Utrera. They dominated the championship from start to finish and at no time have they seen direct promotion in danger and they will be able to finish the season with relaxation in the face of a job well done and begin to dream of next season in the fourth category of Spanish football.
One of the reasons for this early rise is the support they have had throughout the year from their fanswho far from leaving the team alone have accompanied and supported him reaching 9,000 subscribers and with displacements of 1,000 people in each match that they have played away from Colombinoshowing the love for his team and the desire they had to see him get out of the hole and little by little return to that team that played in the First Division.
