The "Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa" is our football team, it was founded in 1923 as a result of the mixture of the two teams of the city. Now the team is in the Second Division, but for fifteen times it was in the First Division and even once we were in "La Liga" but we lost a lot of matches and we lost the category.
A few days ago all of us remembered the winner´s spirit of the season 54-55 when we were in "La Liga" because we had to play against F.C Barcelona in the National Cup and everybody in León were very excited because F.C Barcelona came to our city to play against Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa, our football team.
The whole day people couldn´t stop to talk about it. The match was at 10:00 pm but people started to go to the Stadium at 8:00 pm. At 10:00 pm the stadium was full and the match started.
Our players had a very good chance to score a goal but they failed and five minutes later Barcelona scored its first goal. In the second part, Barcelona scored another goal and Cultural lost the match 0 -2, but it didn´t matter because people enjoyed with football, with Barcelona and with the famous players who came to León.
Fourteen days later, Cultural went to Barcelona to play a rematch and a lot of people accompanied the team. They spent a beautiful day in the city, visited monuments and known more about Barcelona. At 12:00 the match finished ant the result was worse, Cultural lost 5-0.
