Match3 Nov 2026
The cup run ends for Las Palmas
2‑3 against Lugo, and the road stops here. Cup exits are quick deaths — no second leg, no next week, just the league from now until May.

Vintage Jesé — 8.04
At 33 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.04, and nobody on the pitch better.

César Palacios: that is not what I was promised
“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Las Palmas have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

A falling-out at Las Palmas
Rafael Rodriguez and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Match7 Nov 2026
Las Palmas find a way past Andorra
Andorra made Las Palmas work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Ninety minutes of Sandro at his very best
Marked 8.09. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Las Palmas.

Kirian in the eights
A performance of 8.09 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Manu Fuster was on a different afternoon to everybody else
8.05. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

The manager makes an example of Jefté Betancor
“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.
In brief
