Finally one promotion team has been decided, Real Oviedo is that team. They made it through the play offs after winning 3-1 on aggregate. Real Oviedo's return to LaLiga took 24 years. Oviedo's return was also the role of Santi Cazorla. He became a penalty taker, with 40 years of age he is still a mainstay of Oviedo. But the next tough task is to stay in La Liga, not just for 1 season. Head choach Rea Oviedo Veljko Paunovic must work extra hard and take advantage of the transfer moment.

I feel like it's time for us to adapt to a new standard of player career span that tends to be extended to 40-year old. In the past ten or twenty years ago, there were very little players who managed to play until their 38, 39 or 40 year-old but now it has become more popularly. It's probably from higher professionality of players as well as better nutritious and health care nowadays for football players. We have been witnessing Pepe, Santi Carzola, Cristiano Ronaldo, Lewandowski are still playing very well around 40s. Seasons ago, there was Joaquin in Real Betis and I don't see it is a sort of coincidence but a truly new trend in football.
