Pol Fortuny and Manuel Angelus with a great goal gave them victory over Arbeloa against Almeria to win back the 15th century title.
Juvenil A prevailed against Almería to renew the Copa del Rey title and achieve the fifth title in its history. Alvar Arbeloa’s men, who remain unbeaten this season, beat the Andalucian team in the last leg at Rein de Leon. Pol Fortuna scored the first goal of our team with a header in the 8th minute and, nine minutes later, Manuel Angelus increased the team’s lead with a great goal from the front. At 70′, Rachad narrowed the gap but victory went to Madrid’s reserve team.
Our team started the game very well, taking the lead at one of the first chances. Pol used Youssef’s cross from the left to head into Bruno’s net. Nine minutes later, they increased their lead from Arbeloa with a great goal from Manuel Ángel (17′). Our captain grabbed a corner kick and placed a powerful left footed shot from the edge of the box.

Real Madrid had a great first half and were able to extend their lead with chances from Chema and César Palacios. After the restart, our backup didn’t slow down and quickly required a third. At 53′ Palacios was about to score, but his shot was saved by the goalkeeper. Three minutes later, Pol had another clear chance with a shot that ran over the runner.
As the minutes progressed, Almería began to take more chances to close the gap at the end.
