Trejo, the lord of promotions

Trejo has become the lord of promotions. The captain was the author of the final 0-2, which confirmed the comeback and the return of Rayo to Primera two seasons later. And so, He lived the third ascent of his career, the third wearing the Strip (10-11, 17-18 and 20-21), a fact that puts him fully into Rayista Olympus, since only one legend has led the team to the elite more times than him: Cota (four: 88-89, 91-92, 94-95 and 98-99). The Argentine has already achieved equal Míchel (three: 94-95, 98-99 and 10-11).

What's more, as it happened in his first year, a decade ago, the Chocota had a leading role in the deciding match. On 10-11 it was the in charge of opening the can against the Xerez, finishing off a cross by Aganzo as a result of one against Rayo. A special goal in a difficult moment, that's why he still keeps that video on his mobile. “When I have a ball I look at it,” he confessed to AS some time ago.

This Montilivi goal was also forged in a counterattack, born in a robbery by Andrés and commanded by the other hero of the duel, Álvaro, who spotted Trejo and put her on the penalty spot. They were moments of intrigue and excitement. The Argentine tried to control and played Franquesa, although he finally managed to finish off to confirm the dream just before the break..

As soon as the crash was over, the Chocota broke into an emotional cry. “We believed a lot. We dedicate it to our people. This is the gift of the team for having trusted us“, he explained in Movistar, before having a memory of his family: “It was father's day in Argentina and I take the opportunity to dedicate the victory to mine. Two years ago we lost him and I was sure he would join me today. He has not let me down”.

The captain has been fundamental in this ascent. A silent leader, as Míchel defined him. The watchtower to cling to in the worst moments, although he shakes off the compliments to focus them on the block, in the locker room: “Fellowship has been the key. It was not easy, we arrived, they beat us on the bus, they told us everything, but that gives us a lot of strength and this group, when they have had to put their eggs on the table, they have“.
