It’s been a hugely successful week for some of Yellows Academy players. Diego Collado, Álex Baena and Iván Morante, who were all part of our U19s (Juvenil A) squad last season, were crowned COTIF winners with Spain men’s U20s, after beating Russia 4–0 in the final. Baena scored and Morante captained the side.
