Elche also wins those matches where their football isn't as dazzling. The team from Elche has seized one of the two coveted direct promotion spots. The start of the second half of the season has sparked madness at the Martínez Valero with Rashani's last-minute winning goal.

Elche defeated Real Zaragoza and has accumulated six victories in the last seven matches, including the Copa del Rey. The excitement for the franjiverde team couldn't be higher ahead of this week's Copa del Rey round of 16 clash against Atlético de Madrid.

Eder Sarabia's team didn't create the usual goal-scoring opportunities, yet they dominated and had the best shots. Gaetan Poussin, the French goalkeeper for Real Zaragoza, thwarted all attempts from the Elche side.

In the 93rd minute, Rodrigo Mendoza's talent emerged. The youth player delivered a perfect pass to Rashani's head, who didn't miss.

The victory places Elche second, trailing Almería. For the first time this season, the team from Elche finds themselves in direct promotion spots to La Liga.
