This Wednesday, June 29, 2022, marks 31 years since the Atletico Madrid win his seventh Copa del Rey of your story. A title that came after the rojiblanco team beat the RCD Majorca in the final 1-0 thanks to a goal from Alfredo Santaelena in overtime. A trophy that was a little more special because it was won in the stadium Santiago Bernabeufiefdom where the last one was also conquered in 2013.
That day the team trained by Iselin Santos Ovejero jumped onto the pitch with an eleven made up of Mejias in goal; a defense of five with Tomas, Solozabal, Juanito, Ferreira, Toni Munoz; Orejuela, Schuster, Vizcaino in the medullary; and on point they left the start futre Y Manolo. In the second half they entered the pitch you knew Y Alfredo Santaelena who would end up being the hero of that match.
To reach that final Atletico Madrid He had a very complicated path in which he defeated the real Madrid in the round of 16 (1-1 and 1-0), at Royal Valladolid (0-2 and 0-1) in quarters and at Barcelona Soccer Club (0-2 and 2-3) in the semifinals. All this after closing a League in which they had been second.
so remembered Alfred on the club’s website that final: “It was a complicated game, against a good team like Majorca. There were alternatives in the game but the goal did not come. We reached extra time, that led us to a complicated situation in which any goal would decide the game”.
And so he related how that goal was that gave the rojiblancos the victory: “The goal came in the 114th minute in a play in which I started from the center of the field, Bernard Schuster on the left, ‘sabites‘ who entered from the right hits, Ezaki that leaves the ball loose in the area and I came at speed from behind, I only have to push it with my left leg”.
A ‘target’ that you will never forget. “For me, I am a boy from Vicálvaro all my life, who came from Getafe and make the goal that gave the first title to the Era Gil It was a tremendous joy.”
