The 97-minute world wave is the final winner, 3-2! The first upgraded team in La Liga was born: I realize my dream after 3 years

In the 2024-25 season of La Liga, Leganes, Las Palmas and Valladolid were relegated. Which 3 teams will fill their vacancy? In the early morning of May 26, in the 41st round of the Spanish Second Division, Levante defeated Burgos 3-2, and Levante, who scored 76 points, became the first promoted team in La Liga next season! Before the 41st round of the Segunda Division, Levante ranked first in 40 games with 73 points, Elche ranked second in 40 games with 71 points, Milandes ranked third in 71 points, and Oviedo ranked fourth in 69 points.

The top two in the Segunda Division go directly to La Liga. For Levante, the upgrade situation is very good: if Levante defeats Burgos and one of Milandes and Elche loses its chain, Levante can be promoted to La Liga one round ahead of schedule.

in the away game against Burgos, Levante did not play well and fell behind 1-2 for a long time. In the 85th minute, Levante's Bruger scored a header and tied the score 2-2. In the 97th minute, a miracle happened:

Levante's attack. Outside the penalty area, Carlos Alvarez shot with his left foot, the ball rushed into the upper left corner, and the goalkeeper was beyond the reach, 3-2!

Carlos Alvarez's world-class goal made Levante's entire team crazy!

At the same time, Levante's rival Milandes fell to the chain, tied Almeria 0-0, and fell to fourth place with 72 points in 41 games. This means that Levante, who scored 76 points in 41 games, beat Oviedo, 4 points. With only one round left, Levante locked in the top 2 in the Spanish Second Division in advance, becoming the first upgraded team in La Liga next season!

After three years, Levante is back, and fans celebrate in the squares, streets, and bars.

For Levante, this is a dream-fulfilling moment - fans dream that the team will return to La Liga, and the 54-year-old coach Carlero will soon experience the feeling of coaching the La Liga team for the first time. At the press conference of Levante players "make a big fuss" and celebrated this unforgettable moment with coach Carlero.

This 117-year-old club has become the number one lift in La Liga in the 21st century. OPTA gives data: Since the beginning of the 21st century, Levante has successfully upgraded five times (2005, 2008, 2016, 2022, 2025), making it the team with the most promotions to La Liga this season.

The last round left in the Spanish Second Division, Levante is very likely to win the Spanish Second Division championship. In a century of history, Levante has only three championship trophys: the 1936-37 Cup of the King's Cup, the 2003-04 and the 2016-17 Spanish Second Division championship.
