The cursed penalty that sent Granada to Second

, the

team that seemed to have it better to seal their permanence, was finally the one that was condemned to relegation to the Second Division.

A victory, at home, in front of his fans, was all he needed.

He even had a penalty in his favor, pointed out by

after consulting the VAR in the second half of his duel with Espanyol, which a veteran like

tried to adjust so much that he ended up sending him out.

In the first half, the person normally in charge of these actions,

, had already had to leave the game due to injury.

In addition, in addition, Molina himself would also see how a desperate header died meekly in the hands of a

who, everything is said, was right with the direction of his launch from 11 meters.

It was a fateful end for Granada on one of those transistor radio afternoons in which the Granada team ran out of gunpowder at the worst time.

Contrary to Cádiz and Mallorca, who did manage to win two victories from their visits to Alavés and Osasuna.

The cadistas, almost immediately, would see with relief how
