Cazorla started his career in Oviedo’s youth team, competed at the age of eight and watched his heroes: Carlos Munoz, Slavisa Jokanovic, Robert Prosinecki and Petr Dubovsky. A decade later he had to go against his will in the middle of a financial crisis in the club. He played with Villarreal, Arsenal and Spain with the leading roles, but returned to his youth club two years ago and swore: “I would play for free, but they are not allowed.”
He scored the decisive goal in the playoff semi-final against Almería from a free kick and has now completed the fairy tale by firing his youth club back into the great time. Cazorla scored in the first half of the second leg from the penalty point after Joaquin Panichelli’s Tor Mirandés had a lead of two goals in the two -legged matter. The strike of the chair in the second half sat down to the winner until the extension and two minutes before the break in the additional half an hour to send the home fans wild.
The club from Asturias in northwestern Spain will replace Levant and moose in the top level of the next season to a climbed Leganés, Las Palmas and Valladolid.

The coach of Oviedo, Veljko Paunovic, told La Liga TV:
Red cards for David Costas and Unai Egiluz von Oviedo from Mirandés at the end of the extension have no historical occasion for a team that almost went out of business at the beginning of the century when they plunged into the fourth level in Spain.
