"Real Murcia" will play in "La Liga" next season © EuroFootball.com

The club became the second team of the lower Spanish league, already securing a ticket to "La Liga". The Murcia club needed a 1-1 draw on Saturday away at the "Ponferradina" club to join "Valladolid", which is the leader of the second Spanish league and has already won a ticket to the higher league.

"Real Murcia" was promoted to "La Liga" in 2003, but after a season in which they finished in last place, they dropped back to the second strongest league in Spain.

The third team that will play in "La Liga" next year is likely to be "Almeria", who will face "Lorca" on Sunday.

Murcia is a city in southeastern Spain with a population of just over 400,000. In addition to "Real Murcia", the city also has the "Ciudad Murcia" club, which currently occupies fourth place in the second Spanish league but still has theoretical chances of overtaking "Almeria" and winning a ticket to "La Liga".
