Sa\u00fal del Cerro, Juan Aspra, \u00c1lvaro Arnedo, and Jaime Calleja shine in their teams’ victories<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Four Mesas Sport footballers have stood out again this week. Sa\u00fal del Cerro<\/a> and Jaime Calleja<\/a> played key roles in victories for Burgos CF and CD Coria from the center of defense. Juan Aspra<\/a> and \u00c1lvaro Arnedo<\/a> led their teams as captains, with the latter opening the scoring with a screamer for Arenas de Getxo.<\/p>\n

Sa\u00fal del Cerro<\/h2>\n

The Burgos CF<\/a> secured an important 2-1 victory with our defender Sa\u00fal del Cerro in the starting eleven. The three points put the team third in the standings with 24 points. Sa\u00fal repaid his coach’s trust with a very solid performance in the center of defense.<\/p>\n

At just 22 years old, the left-footed center-back from Burgos played with a level of personality that deserves recognition. He was firm in defensive actions, aggressive in duels, and provided security to the team throughout the match. He stepped up in an important game and demonstrated the great talent he possesses.<\/p>\n

With the ball, he also showcased one of his greatest strengths. Sa\u00fal has the quality to keep the play moving and feels comfortable participating in the build-up from the back. It is no coincidence that he has often played as a midfielder. That experience allows him to offer solutions to the team when the ball is at his feet.<\/p>\n

His performance is a reward for the effort he puts in every day to earn these opportunities. For a player developed at Burgos, being a starter and helping the team win at El Plant\u00edo holds a very special value.<\/p>\n

You are very talented and deserve all the success. Congratulations, Sa\u00fal.<\/p>\n

Juan Aspra<\/h2>\n

Juan Aspra had an excellent game in Antequera CF<\/a>‘s 3-1 victory over Rayo Majadahonda.<\/a> Wearing the captain’s armband, he played the full 90 minutes and once again pulled the strings for the team from midfield.<\/p>\n

Off the ball, he was as intense as ever. He won many duels, recovered balls, and provided the balance the team needed. With the ball, he showed the quality of his left foot, kept the play flowing, and helped Antequera find solutions from the center of the pitch.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old Asturian midfielder is already in his third season with the Andalusian side. During this time, he has become one of the most prominent players in the category. He has also performed at a high level when required to play further back in the center-back position.<\/p>\n

At only 24, Juan has taken on the responsibility of being Antequera’s captain and delivers on the pitch. His quality, his work rate off the ball, and his ability to also play as a center-back speak of a very complete footballer who still has a long way to go.<\/p>\n

Congratulations, Juan. Great victory and a great match.<\/p>\n

\u00c1lvaro Arnedo<\/h2>\n

\u00c1lvaro Arnedo paved the way for Arenas de Getxo<\/a>‘s 2-1 victory against Deportivo Fabril.<\/a> In the 10th minute, the midfielder from Logro\u00f1o struck a great volley from outside the area to put his team ahead. A wonder goal that helped Arenas secure their third consecutive victory.<\/p>\n

This time \u00c1lvaro wore the captain’s armband and was a vital piece in midfield. He won back numerous balls, put in an enormous defensive shift, and provided solidity to the team. On the ball, he was always available and kept the play moving against a reserve team that presses hard and doesn’t give you much time to think.<\/p>\n

His experience in the category and his ability to balance the team are very valuable for the Basque side. To all that hard work, he added a great goal, capping off a performance that ended with three very important points for Arenas.<\/p>\n

Congratulations on the goal and the great victory, \u00c1lvaro. You deserve it!<\/p>\n

Jaime Calleja<\/h2>\n

The CD Coria<\/a> achieved a sensational and highly commendable 0-2 victory against CD Mirand\u00e9s<\/a>. Our Madrid-born center-back Jaime Calleja had a magnificent game at Anduva and led the defense for the Extremaduran side.<\/p>\n

Jaime was aggressive in duels, firm in marking, and attentive in organizing his teammates from the back. His security and leadership were key to the team keeping a clean sheet. On the ball, he also showed his quality. He made himself available to help with the build-up and didn’t flinch in a setting as demanding as the Anduva Stadium.<\/p>\n

At 23 years old, and after developing throughout his career in the Real Madrid youth ranks, he is experiencing his first stint away from home. Jaime is proving the enormous potential he holds and the sensational footballer he is.<\/p>\n

We are so happy for your success, Jaime. Seeing you enjoy yourself makes us very happy, and this is only the beginning. Congratulations on your game and this great victory.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
