The team from l'Espluga faces the final league matchday this weekend with the clear goal of defeating Sant Pere i Sant Pau 'B'. The squad arrives at this decisive moment in excellent form, having accumulated eight consecutive victories, including important wins against direct rivals such as Pobla de Mafumet 'C' and Morell 'B'.
The victory against Morell 'B' was particularly notable, with a 5-2 result at the Municipal de l'Espluga. In that match, the home team dominated from the start, with an initial goal from a forward in the 12th minute. Despite the visitors' penalty equalizer in the 39th minute, another player put the home team ahead again just before halftime, in the 44th minute.
In the second half, the visitors tried to react but without success. Two more goals, one in the 80th minute and another in the 90th, sealed the match, although Morell managed to narrow the gap. With this result, l'Espluga has concluded an impeccable home season, with no defeats in nine victories and four draws.
Now, the fate of promotion will be decided on the final matchday, with a game scheduled for Sunday at 7 PM in a unified time slot. Their opponent, Sant Pere i Sant Pau 'B', is in tenth place and has nothing at stake, although they previously demonstrated their competitiveness by drawing against l'Espluga.
The calculations are clear: a victory guarantees promotion to Tercera Catalana. If they fail to win, the team will have to monitor the result of the match between Pobla de Mafumet and Selva del Camp, as a defeat for Pobla could open the door to promotion even with a loss of their own. This represents a historic opportunity for the club and the town, which has not seen its team compete in a higher category for over 30 years.
