1st RFEF | GROUP 1 High tension: the top eight face each other this day

This news could be sponsored by Footters, the platform that exclusively televises the RFEF First Division matches, because there is no better advertising to encourage football fans to subscribe than this weekend’s menu. Chance has wanted that between Saturday and Sunday the first eight of the classification will measure each other, in Group 1 and that, in addition, it will be at non-coinciding times. A fan of the First RFEF (if there are any and his heart resists it) can see the four train crashes in full.

The succession of high-voltage duels will begin on Saturday, at a quarter past four, in Vigo, where the third and fourth will face each other. Onesimo’s Celta B, very plugged in in front of goal and with three wins and a draw in the last four games, will receive Unionistas, touched after losing their first game at home last weekend. One hour after finishing the Barreiro duel, at seven, the match between sixth and seventh will start in Las Gaunas: UD Logroñés, in whose games no one scores more than one goal, and that with luck, for two months, against Rayo Majadahonda, who gave up a surprising draw at Cerro del Espino against Bilbao Ahletic on the last day.

And on Sunday the two great ocean liners of the group take to the field, Depor in the morning and Racing in the afternoon. First, at noon, the people from A Coruña arrive as leaders to close a surprisingly bad month of February, with three defeats, at the artificial grass fiefdom of San Sebastián de los Reyes, with three series victories in the last days. At five o’clock the electric day in El Sardinero closes: the only team that has not lost at home, Racing, receives the best visitor, Real Unión, who arrive in Santander with eight wins and only two defeats away from home, the last four months ago.

As the classification is, the day could end up separating the wheat from the chaff, especially if Depor, Racing and Celta B win to open a greater gap with respect to their pursuers, or quite the opposite if, for example, these fall and the platoon regroups. If after the great game Depor-Racing with 20,000 spectators in Riazor and what is coming this weekend they do not get hooked on the First RFEF, they will have a difficult time.
