RM Castilla
FinishedGoals from Loren and Borja Alonso gave the Whites the win against Gimnástica Segoviana.
Real Madrid Castilla wrapped up their pre-season campaign in the best possible way. The Whites claimed another victory with a comeback win over Gimnástica Segovia to go into the start of the league on 24 August against Marbella full of confidence. Goals from Loren (68’) and Borja Alonso (70’) turned the score around after a goal scored by the visitors in the early stages of the second half.
Castilla's final pre-season game of the season got off to a pulsating start. The first promising chance came in the 22nd minute when De la Mata's header was turned away by Fran. Six minutes later, the academy team had the chance with a shot from Borja Alonso who just missed the target. Before the break, Campos almost made it 1-0 with a free-kick.
Castilla produce two-minute fightback
Gimnástica Segoviana opened the scoring at the start of the second half with a goal from Llorente ('57). But Raúl' s men bounced back and turned the game around in two minutes. First, Loren equalised with a left-footed effort from close range and, moments later, Borja Alonso 's finish from Gonzalo's cross sealed the comeback to make it 2-1.
