Real Unión Boosts Promotion Hopes With 3-0 Victory Over Telde

Real Unión’s 3-0 win over Telde has shaken up the bottom of the table and put the Santa Cruz side back in the hunt for a promotion spot, now sitting just four points outside the playoff zone. For Telde, the result is a major blow, leaving them seven points from safety.

The match was a masterclass in game management from Miguel Delgado’s side. After a scrappy, scoreless first half, Real Unión finally broke the deadlock just before the break when Andriu headed home a well-worked corner from Javi Yanes.

Real Unión took control after halftime. Javi Yanes doubled the lead after a pass from his brother, Jorge, forcing Telde to push forward in search of a goal. This left the visitors exposed, and Real Unión capitalized in the 72nd minute when Ale Busi finished off a counterattack led by Adrián to seal the 3-0 victory.

The win comes at a crucial time for Real Unión, who face a pivotal match against Mensajero this Wednesday. The game, which was originally postponed due to Storm Therese, is effectively an early final; Mensajero currently holds the final playoff spot, sitting four points ahead of Santa Cruz. How Real Unión handles this demanding schedule will be the deciding factor in their push for promotion.
