Granada and UD Las Palmas certified their return to the First Division on the last day of the SmartBank League played this Saturday night. Granada defeated Leganés (2-0) and a goalless draw at their stadium against Alavés was enough for the Gran Canaria team, for whom victory would have given them promotion. The four teams that will play the promotion playoffs are Levante, Alavés, Eibar and Albacete.
The Nasrid team, which depended on itself, was the one that settled their game before, in their case against Leganés. Of the four games in which the two places for direct promotion were determined, the one played in Los Cármenes was the only one in which there was a goal in the first half, the work of Uzuni in minute 42. Already in 58 Granada increased its income with a goal from Bryan Zaragoza.
Levante won (2-1) at the Ciutat de València against Oviedo, who went ahead on the scoreboard with a goal from Postigo at his own goal. It tied for the granotas De Frutos and in 93 Wesley consummated the comeback. The victory leaves Levante in third position, tied on points with the second, Las Palmas, but with a worse goal average.
At Alcoraz, Eibar, who could no longer aspire to direct promotion, beat Huesca with a goal from Pereira in the 83rd minute. Albacete won (2-1) at Belmonte against Mirandés.
The playoff matches will be Albacete-Levante, with a second leg at the Ciutat de València, and Eibar-Alavés, a Basque duel with the final decision at Mendizorroza.
