The Copa del Rey is entering its most decisive phase as it happens every season, the tournament is preparing to enter the final stages where the big favorites will face the surprises chained during the previous rounds, thanks to the direct elimination system. In this way, the less strong teams have the opportunity to compete against others in much more favorable positions and with significantly higher rankings.

In this edition, several historic teams have already dropped out of the tournament, and the panorama is beginning to be defined. Among those that remain, there are five clubs considered to be the main contenders for the trophy.

Below we will analyze the five teams that are best positioned to fight for the title.

Real Madrid: experience and competitiveness

Real Madrid arrives at this stage of the Copa del Rey without much to the liking of its fans and with a dressing room that seems to be letting go of Xabi Alonso, although he can never be dismissed for his incredible ability to always compete.

The group retains a firm structure, with players who are used to playing in finals and performing in critical situations. Despite the frequent changes that usually occur in this championship, Real Madrid presented a concentrated, practical and productive performance. Its psychological strength, together with the breadth of the team, enables it to compete in the Cup without neglecting other goals.

In a short tournament, where small things can be decisive, class and experience usually have a big impact, and in this respect, the white team has an advantage over any opponent.

FC Barcelona: rebuilding, young talent and ambition

Barcelona is entering the Copa del Rey at a crucial moment in its reconstruction under the direction of Hansi Flick, although it has some players in a low state of mind, such as Ronald Araujo. With a group of young players who are no longer just promises but have become realities, the team has achieved a better balance and a clearer identity than in previous years.

The Cup appears as a strategic objective to consolidate the project and the Catalan team is positioned as the great favorite for users of gambling platforms, according to predictive patterns that grant welcome bonuses in bookmakers, Barça combines intensity, possession and individual imbalance, which can lead them to conquer the title without major problems.

Atlético de Madrid: solidity, order and a knockout mentality

When it comes to knockout or single-leg competitions, Atlético de Madrid is always considered a natural contender, although it seems to rely heavily on the performance of Julián Álvarez up front and lacks a more elaborate approach. The Colchonero side enter the Copa del Rey maintaining their essence: tactical discipline, energy, defensive solidity and a great ability to compete in difficult conditions.

The Copa del Rey suits Atletico’s style, which is at ease in tense matches, with few mistakes and high concentration. In that dynamic, their ability to manage the game and take advantage of opportunities makes them one of the most difficult opponents, and no wonder.

Athletic Club: identity and collective strength

Athletic Club re-establishes itself as one of the most prominent clubs in the Copa del Rey, an event that has special significance in its history. With a solid identity, focused on energy, collaboration and emotional motivation, the Basque team presents itself with firm foundations.

However, Athletic faces a major obstacle: the Champions League fixtures, which are not in their favor and which also take up a significant part of their schedule. This situation causes more complications than benefits, so it will have to manage the remainder of the year with a somewhat limited squad for three competitions.

Additionally, the symbolic importance of this tournament and the ambition to recapture a national title serve as an additional boost. When Athletic enters its competitive phase, it becomes a formidable opponent for any opponent.

Real Sociedad: consolidated project and balanced soccer

Real Sociedad is another club that arrives at the Copa del Rey with solid arguments. In recent years, the organization has established a firm project, with a clear playing philosophy and a balanced squad, capable of competing at both national and international level.

The team exhibits good ball control, tactical order and a solid defense. In addition, they have a generation of players who have already gained experience in crucial matches, which is essential in this type of tournament.

The Es Pratet sports center has from this month with a new LED lighting system, more efficient and sustainable.

The City Council of Ibiza, through its Sports Department, has completed the complete replacement of the lighting of the pavilion, an action that will allow an estimated energy saving of up to 60% and a significant improvement in the conditions for sports practice.

The intervention is part of the municipal plan for the improvement of sports facilities and has involved the installation of 32 new LED projectors, replacing the old 400-watt halogen spotlights.

Commitment to efficiency and sustainability

The new technology significantly reduces energy consumption, improves the quality of the pavilion’s interior lighting and reduces maintenance tasks. With this intervention, the Consistory leaves behind an obsolete system, which required constant revisions, and opts for a more durable, efficient and environmentally friendly solution.

The City Council has earmarked some 10,000 euros for this work, an investment that will be amortized thanks to the energy savings generated by the new lighting system.

Improved facilities for athletes and citizens

The Councilor for Sports, Catiana Fuster, stressed that this action «demonstrates the real commitment of this City Council with the improvement and maintenance of sports facilities, while promoting new infrastructure and equipment«.

Fuster also stressed that the project «Eivissa, ciutat de l’esport» is not just a slogan, but «a tangible commitment that citizens and athletes can see and enjoy«.

The lighting renovation of the Es Pratet sports center is one of a number of initiatives promoted by the Ibiza City Council to modernize sports facilities, improve the user experience and move towards a more efficient and sustainable management model.

Ibiza wants to fly again. La Cursa Patrimoni del Ayuntamiento de Ibiza faces its next edition with a major challenge: to turn the capital of Ibiza into the scene of a new national record. And the protagonist of that challenge will be, once again, María Forero.

The Huelva-born athlete, reigning European U23 cross country champion, has chosen Ibiza to attempt a historic double assault on March 29, 2026. Not only will she try to lower her own Spanish U23 10K road record (32:55), but she will also try to beat the absolute record, currently held by Carla Gallardo (31:11).

A champion who returns to Ibiza to make history

María Forero returns to the Cursa Patrimoni del Ayuntamiento de Ibiza as title defender and with renewed determination. She already knows what it’s like to win in this emblematic race, considered one of the fastest homologated 10K in the country.

In the last edition she won in a race marked by the strong wind. Only the adverse weather conditions prevented the Huelva-born runner from lowering her own U23 record and seriously endangering the record of the race, held by Laura Luengo (32:45). One year later, Forero will try to redeem herself and, if the weather is good, to sign a historic morning for national athletics.

In the best moment of his sports career

The challenge comes at an unbeatable moment for the Andalusian athlete. Just a few days ago, María Forero was proclaimed European U23 cross champion in Lagoa (Portugal), confirming the constant progression of one of the great promises of Spanish athletics.

His track record also includes a European U23 title in 5,000 meters on the track and another continental gold in cross country U20, credentials that reinforce his choice of Ibiza as the ideal place to try to break the wall of the 10K road race.

A fast circuit and an event with national projection

The route of the Cursa Patrimoni remains unchanged, starting at Avenida de España and finishing at Paseo de Vara del Rey, in a one-lap route that summarizes the essence of the city: the surroundings of Dalt Vila, the promenade and the urban heart of Ibiza. Ten kilometers completely flat, with few turns and designed to run fast.

The event will once again bring together some of the best national athletes in the most emblematic sporting event in the city. In addition to the 10K homologated, the event will include the 5 kilometers of the Toni Costa Balanzat and free children’s races, with the aim of encouraging the practice of sports among the youngest.

The Cursa Patrimoni of the City Council of Ibiza is part of the Circuit of World Heritage Cities, composed of 15 races held in the 15 Spanish cities with this recognition, an initiative that combines sport and enhancement of historical heritage.

Registration for the Cursa Patrimoni del Ayuntamiento de Eivissa/Ibiza is now available on the official website of the event: www.10kcursapatrimoni.com.

UD Ibiza bleeds to death in stoppage time and closes the year with another draw https://lavozdeibiza.com/current-news/ud-ibiza-bleeds-to-death-in-stoppage-time-and-closes-the-year-with-another-draw/ Sun, 21 Dec 2025 13:38:50 +0000 https://lavozdeibiza.com/sin-categorizar/ud-ibiza-bleeds-to-death-in-stoppage-time-and-closes-the-year-with-another-draw/ The Celeste team again squandered a lead in the final stretch and left Alcorcón's field without a prize after conceding 2-2 in the 95th minute.

The UD Ibiza continues without raising its head and closed the year with a bitter draw against Alcorcón (2-2), in a match that once again exposed the structural shortcomings of the team. The light-blue team took the lead twice, but did not know how to manage the advantage and conceded the final equalizer in the 95th minute, after an extension of 11 minutes indicated by the referee.

Sunday’s match made it clear that the team coached by Miguel Álvarez is undergoing a profound transformation. Neither Fede Vico nor Gallar, the most promising players, were even called up, which confirms that both are on the exit ramp.

With a lineup marked by absences, Álvarez opted for Sofiane as a center forward, Bebé on the right wing and Monju as a central defender. In the midfield, Señé again played some minutes, but was unable to provide criteria or balance. The slogan seemed clear: more ball, more control. But on the pitch, the script was the opposite.

José Albert’s goal and no control of the game

Alcorcón took the initiative from the start and came close to scoring with a header against the crossbar. However, it was UD Ibiza who struck first. In the 27th minute, after Bebé’s cross was rejected by the local defense, José Albert volleyed a left-footed shot from outside the area into the top corner. A goal that put the Pitiusos ahead.

Despite the advantage, the Ibizan team was unable to manage the pace of the game. Far from calming the game, the team took refuge in their own half, unable to combine three passes in a row and without generating play from the midfield. Only an isolated action between Sofiane and Bebé, poorly resolved, generated some danger before the break.

Tie from the penalty spot and an agonizing finale

After the restart, Alcorcón found the equalizer in a controversial play. A fall by Carmona against Monju in the area was flagged as a penalty, despite the doubts. Aparicio converted the penalty (1-1) and restored parity to the scoreboard.

With half an hour to go, Álvarez looked for a reaction with Davo as second striker, but the team remained sterile in attack. Once again it was Ramón Juan who saved the team with several meritorious interventions.

In the 86th minute, Bebé played an individual play from his own half, broke down the left and served a measured ball to Sofiane, who scored the 1-2. It seemed that Ibiza was taking the three points, but the outcome was once again cruel.

In the 95th minute, after a poorly defended action by the center of the defense, Vladys beat Ramón Juan and signed the final tie. In the last minutes, Alcorcón even came close to the third, leaving Ibiza on the ropes.

The UD Ibiza was held to a goalless draw this Sunday at the Palladium Can Misses stadium against Villarreal B, in a match corresponding to the 16th round of the First Federation. However, the result was the least important for Miguel Álvarez, coach of the light blue team, who appeared before the media visibly upset by the team’s image during the first half.

«The first half we played was unworthy. I feel bad for the club, for the people at the club, for the fans, for the whole UD family, because they don’t deserve that half. I have been ashamed on the bench, this is unbearable«, the coach stated forcefully in the press room.

Álvarez’s analysis was direct and straightforward. The coach thanked the fans for their «patience» and acknowledged that, without the fans’ encouragement, the team would have been defeated.

«If it weren’t for them, we would lose this game,» he said.

During halftime, the talk in the locker room was, as he admitted, «intense,» although he avoided offering details. «The coach and nine players could have been changed, the coach first, eh,» he confessed.

«We lack soccer.»

The coach regretted that mistakes continue to appear despite the previous preparation: «We work well, we prepare for the games, but we are covering up cracks, one side shows up another, and we have to solve that».

Alvarez was particularly disappointed by the team’s weak performance without the ball, an aspect that, he claims, had been improved in previous weeks. «We need to be a more balanced team,» he said.

Despite the lack of goals, the team had a few chances, such as a shot against the post by Davo and another clear action by Bebé. But the poor start of the game and the lack of accuracy marked the development of the match.

«We lack soccer, but we have to analyze what is happening, because it is not because of work, we have to value what it is, but the first half has been undignified by all of us, we have to analyze what is happening,» he insisted.

Next appointment, Alcorcón

The draw leaves UD Ibiza with one more point in the standings, waiting to close the year on December 21 against Alcorcón at the Municipal Santo Domingo stadium.

The team has yet to achieve a clear victory that would endorse the work of the coaching staff and restore the confidence of the fans, who do not hide their disappointment.

The 5th edition of the DIE Educational Program Inclusive Sport at School has celebrated this Thursday a new awareness day with the students of CEIP Can Coix, in a meeting that has counted with the participation of the high-level athlete Adriana Rissi García, badminton player and a reference of inclusive sport in Spain.

The activity began at 9.30 am in the theater room of IES Quartó de Portmany, where Rissi, 22 years old, born in Madrid and with severe bilateral hearing loss, shared her personal and sporting history with 88 students of 4th, 5th and 6th grade of Primary School.

During the talk, the athlete recounted her beginnings in badminton, the difficulties arising from her hearing impairment and the values that have guided her career, such as perseverance, self-improvement and daily effort. The students actively participated in a round of questions that generated a close and motivating dialogue.

From words to action

After the theoretical part, from 10:30 a.m. to 1:45 p.m., the practical session took place in the outdoor courts of the center with four inclusive sports workshops: soccer with visual impairment, sitting volleyball with physical disability, goalball and adapted athletics.

The capital of Ibiza and Formentera is currently facing an unprecedented transformation in sports. The Eivissa Town Council has launched an investment of more than 8 million euros to renovate and expand municipal facilities, with the aim of improving sports practice, strengthening the offer for residents and visitors and providing the city with modern, accessible and sustainable equipment.

The four projects already underway will be completed in 2026 and represent a decisive step in the consolidation of Ibiza as a city committed to physical activity, healthy leisure and the promotion of sport in all its disciplines.

New tennis courts at Can Misses: sustainability and growth

The future Can Misses tennis complex will occupy an area of 5,084.90 m² and will incorporate three new clay courts that will respond to the growing demand for this sport in the municipality. The 1.3 million euro investment will create a completely renovated space with bleachers, changing rooms, a mini-tennis court, club offices, storerooms, a machine room and public bathrooms.

The design is committed to landscape integration and sustainability, using environmentally friendly materials and energy efficiency systems that will reduce CO₂ emissions and the visual impact of the complex.

Es Putxet: the field that will bring rugby back to Ibiza

With a budget of 3.9 million euros, the new Es Putxet field will be one of the most versatile sports facilities on the island. The 113 x 72 meter artificial turf pitch will be prepared to host 11-a-side soccer, 7-a-side soccer and rugby, thus recovering a discipline that had been lacking its own space in the city for years.

The facility will comply with the approvals of the Royal Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) and the Royal Spanish Rugby Federation (RFER) and will include a physiotherapy room, men’s and women’s locker rooms, referee’s locker rooms, offices, storage and public toilets. It will also have an eight-row grandstand with a capacity for 986 spectators, ideal for official matches and local tournaments.

A new sports center in Figueretes: more space for more sports

The Figueretes neighborhood will inaugurate a 2,751 m² sports center in 2026, the result of an investment of 2.7 million euros. This is a strategic facility for grassroots sports, with the capacity to meet the growing demand from clubs, schools and municipal activities.

The pavilion will house three transversal basketball courts, a longitudinal court, a futsal court, three volleyball courts, as well as changing rooms, adapted changing rooms, a gymnasium, an infirmary, a storage area and an access control area.

The bleachers will make it possible to receive the public for federation competitions, which can be held thanks to the improved lighting and the regulatory height of the space.

Platja d’en Bossa renovates its sports court and improves security

The complete renovation of the Platja d’en Bossa sports court, at a cost of 86,265 euros, responds to a historical demand of the neighbors and represents a significant improvement in safety and efficiency. The project, promoted by the Town Council of Eivissa and Red Eléctrica Española, includes the complete replacement of the artificial turf, the renovation of the pavement, the repair of the perimeter enclosure and the installation of new lights capable of reducing energy consumption by up to 60%.

It is also planned to remove obstacles and replace the old concrete benches with polyethylene models, a measure that will increase the safety of users and reduce the risk of injury during games and training sessions.

With these actions, Ibiza takes a decisive step towards a more active, healthy and cohesive future. The modernization of its facilities not only improves the practice of sports, but also strengthens the social fabric of the municipality, promotes grassroots sports and expands opportunities for all citizens.

The investment marks a turning point in the city’s commitment to the well-being and quality of life of its residents.

The Consell d’Eivissa held today the first Olympics of Equality, an initiative organized by the Department of Sports in collaboration with Gesto Deportivo, the IES Xarc and the City Council of Santa Eulària des Riu. The day, which took place between the IES Xarc and the Palau de Congressos, has sought to generate reflection and concrete proposals to move towards greater gender equality in school sports on the island.

Equality, central axis of the program «Nena i Esport».

During the meeting, the Councilor for Sports, Salvador Losa, stressed that this first edition «represents the essence of the values we defend: effort, respect, coexistence and equality». Losa thanked the involvement of teachers, students and all the people who have made possible a day «so necessary», stressing that «when sport educates, it transforms».

The Equality Olympiad is part of the «Nena i Esport» program , promoted by the Consell d’Eivissa to promote the participation of girls in grassroots sports and reduce the gender gap that still persists in many disciplines.

Workshops, moral dilemmas and sports references

The activities began early in the morning at IES Xarc with an institutional reception for teachers and a non-sexist gymkhana designed by high school students. There were also yoga workshops, exhibitions and contests created by the students.

Later, the Palau de Congressos hosted the official opening, the presentation of the «Nena i Esport» program, the resolution of moral dilemmas and a meeting with young archery athletes, who shared their experience on discipline, perseverance and self-improvement.

One of the most relevant moments was the discussion around real situations raised by the students, such as cases of harassment of a female referee or derogatory comments towards female players. These examples showed the need to continue educating in respect and combating gender stereotypes from an early age.

The fundamental role of families in sports education

During the conference, the essential role of families in the emotional management of the youngest sportswomen was also highlighted. The active participation of fathers, mothers, students and teachers made it possible to analyze how the environment influences the confidence, self-esteem and continuity of girls in the practice of sports.

The workshops and spaces for reflection demonstrated that sport not only fosters physical skills, but is also a decisive tool for transmitting values such as self-discipline, self-control and overcoming adversity.

Three job courses to bridge the gender gap

The celebration of this first Olympiad comes after three school years developing the «Nena i Esport» program, in which 32 primary and secondary schools have participated. IES Xarc was selected as the venue for the quality of its pedagogical project and the involvement of its teaching staff.

Over the years, the Consell has organized world cafés, round tables, comic contests, olympics and multiple activities designed to break the gender gap in sports. Today’s event is a new milestone in this line of work, which seeks to consolidate itself as a reference in equality and grassroots sport in Ibiza.

The UD Ibiza again remained without celebrating a victory and without scoring a goal. This Sunday, the light blue team signed a new goalless draw (0-0) against Atlético Sanluqueño, in a match corresponding to the First Federation played away.

Despite the improvement in play and attitude, the team continues to fail to convert its chances and has now gone five games without a win, including the Cup defeat.

Since the arrival of coach Miguel Álvarez, Ibiza has not been able to make it three out of three. Under his guidance, the results still do not reflect the tactical evolution experienced by the team, which has yet to win or score a single goal.

No aim, no prize

In Sanluqueño’s field, UD Ibiza showed a more organized, dominant and ambitious version. The team played in the opponent’s field for a good part of the match, generated chances and kept control, but once again showed its big problem: the lack of goal.

Strikers Sofiane and Davo missed clear chances. In the most notable chance of the first half, Sofiane shot wide with everything to play for after a measured cross from Davo. Ernesto, with a header, and Davo himself, with a weak shot, also had unsuccessful attempts.

In the second half, the tone did not change. UD Ibiza maintained their dominance, with a great deployment of Del Pozo in midfield, and continued to accumulate chances. Davo had another clear opportunity after a previous mistake by Sofiane, but his shot into an empty goal did not find the target.

Even Sofiane came close to scoring again, as did central defender Nacho and Fede Vico in the final minutes, but neither could beat the home goalkeeper. The only action that ended in the net, a goal by Sofiane, was disallowed for a close offside. The television images did not help to clarify whether the decision was correct.

Improvement without reward

The starting eleven presented by Miguel Álvarez included Bebé, who, despite his attempts, had little impact in one-on-one situations.

The Celeste coach again opted for a two strikers and double pivot system, with Davo and Sofiane in attack, accompanied by Del Pozo and David García in midfield.

Although Sanluqueño hardly troubled the Ibizan area except in a couple of final actions, the Andalusian team used constant tactical fouls that interrupted the rhythm of the game and frustrated Ibiza’s attempts to string together continuous attacks.

Five games without a win

With this new draw, UD Ibiza now has five consecutive matches without a win, including elimination from the Copa del Rey.

But even more worrying is that, under the management of Miguel Álvarez, the team has only been able to score one goal in the 1-1 draw in the cup duel, which ended in elimination on penalties.

An exceptional experience at age 14

With only 14 years old, and being still a child, the swimmer of the pitiusa had the opportunity to face some of the best swimmers of the national scene, a sporting experience that very few young people can experience.

The club emphasizes what it means for an athlete of her age to compete in such a demanding environment.

Therefore, the Portus Swimming Club expressed its satisfaction with the performance of the young athlete and sent a message of recognition: «We want to congratulate her for her excellent work and commitment, and express the pride of having an Ibizan representative in a competition of such a high level».

Iker Fernández Valderrama, Gasifred Atlético‘s first team player, underwent urgent surgery this Sunday to remove his spleen, after receiving a violent blow during the match against Unión África Ceutí, corresponding to the Second Division of futsal.

The impact forced his immediate evacuation to the Can Misses Hospital, where he was treated by the emergency service.

In a first medical evaluation, Fernandez was found to have three fractured ribs: the fifth and sixth with displacement -although without free fragments- and the seventh, with a non-displaced fracture.

The subsequent computed axial tomography (CT) scan revealed internal damage that led the medical team to decide to immediately send him to the operating room.

Positive evolution after the intervention

As reported by the Ibizan club itself, the operation was successful and the player remains in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), where he will remain under observation for the next few hours.

If the evolution continues to be favorable, he will be transferred to the ward to complete his recovery. The club has not specified a timetable for his return to sporting activities.
