Campo secure Spanish women’s top spot as men’s competition goes to final day

Club de Campo stormed over the line to win the Spanish women’s Iberdrola League with two big wins, seeing off CH Sardinero 10-0 on Friday before running up a 3-0 success against RC Jolaseta on Saturday.

Against Sardinero, Lucia Abajo de Saenz scored of two of their first three goals en route to a hat trick with Laura Barrios weighing in with two more goals to her tally.

Begoña Garcia and Sara Barrios both got two, too, with Candela Meijas adding the other goal in a comprehensive 19th win of the campaign.

A day later, Garcia was on the mark two more times after Meijas had opened the scoring at Jolaseta.

Before Friday, Junior FC still had a mathematical chance of closing the gap but those results

Second placed Junior FC, meanwhile, drew their game against Atlètic Terrassa 0-0 on Sunday with the combination of results leaving Campo 11 points clear.

The men’s regular season competition will go to the final day of the campaign after Atlètic Terrassa edged out FC Barcelona 3-2 while Campo beat Jolaseta 6-0.

That leaves Atlètic one point clear of Campo at the head of the table with one game left each. The former will make the short trip to face CD Terrassa while the Madrid club will hope to keep up their side of the bargain when they face bottom of the table Linia 22.
