Real Jaén CF has taken a significant step towards their promotion dream after defeating Deportivo Alavés B in a match filled with emotion and tension. Hundreds of Jaén fans traveled to Ibaia to support their team on one of the longest trips of the season, hoping to see their promotion miracle come true.

The team coached by Manolo Herrero faced the match needing a two-goal victory to qualify for the playoffs. Despite the opponent's intensity and a hostile atmosphere in the stands, Real Jaén dominated the game, patiently passing the ball and seeking an opportunity to break the initial deadlock. At halftime, the score remained 0-0, but the visitors had positive sensations.

The second half began with Real Jaén determined to pin back the Vitoria-based reserve team. The long-awaited goal arrived in the 61st minute, scored by Iván Breñé, who, shortly after coming on, beat the local goalkeeper with a powerful shot. This goal sparked wild celebrations, but the team still needed another goal to secure the tie. The situation momentarily complicated when Álvaro García was sent off, leaving Real Jaén with ten players for over 25 minutes.

Despite playing with a numerical disadvantage, Real Jaén maintained their pressure and ambition. After a first half of extra time dominated by the Jaén team, the miracle occurred in the 110th minute. A ball crossed into the box was shot by Mauro, and the rebound fell to Javi Moyano, who fired it into the net to make it 0-2. The visibly emotional captain celebrated the goal that brought the team closer to glory.

With the final whistle, Real Jaén completed their feat and is now preparing to fight for promotion. The team showed grit and determination, overcoming a Deportivo Alavés B side that defended resolutely. The dream of promotion is now closer than ever for the 'lagarto' team.
