Back In The 3rd Division!!!

 CD Oberena will play in the 3rd Division for season 2022/23, after winning promotion from the amateur league in Pamplona.

The manguiverdes have been in the wilderness for a few seasons, but hopes are high that they will once again prove to be a tough team to beat, in the very competitive Tercera (Group15).

They will be joined by CD Alesves from Villafranca, and cross-town rivals, SD Lagunak from Barañain.

Congratulations!  Aupa Oberena!        Photos courtesy of the official Oberena website.

 Standings after yesterday’s games.

CD Azkoyen 1 - 2 CD Oberena

 Oberena travelled south to Peralta today, to take on table-toppers CD Azkoyen, and returned with all three points thanks to a fantastic 2-1 win.

After a disappointing loss last week, the manguiverdes were fired up from the beginning, and played some excellent football throughout the game.

Goals from Iri and Ruben sealed the win, and set the team up for Sunday’s home tie against CD Mendi in Pamplona.

Jornada 9. Monday, April 5th, 2021.

Easter Monday Defeat For Oberena

 Oberena lost by the only goal in today’s Easter Monday fixture against Aoiz.

In a game of few chances, the manguiverdes were the better team in the second half, but could not capitalise on their chances, and in a rare attack, Aoiz scored what was to be the winning goal.

Oberena have the chance to get back to winning ways on Sunday, when they travel south to take on CD Azkoyen at Campo Las Luchas in Peralta.
