Real Valladolid win promotion to Primera Division

Real Valladolid have clinched promotion to the Primera Division.

Real Valladolid concluded their two-legged play off with a 1-1 draw at home to Numancia giving them a 4-1 win on aggregate.

Their destiny already looked set after a first leg 3-0 win and Saturday evening saw the side from the Spanish region of Castile and León secure their place in the top flight of Spanish football.

With the top teams in the league dominating European competitions over the last decade, it will not be an easy ride, but that won't bother fans of the Pucela.

Valladolid join Rayo Vallecano and Huesca in stepping up to the top division in Spain.
