It was a sad night The most important event has stuck in my memory is the Final of the Spanish Football Cup in 1994. I support Celta de Vigo and that year Celta reached the Final of the competition for the second time in the history. When Celta played the first Final Cup, I wasn´t born. In 1994 I was 17 years ago, and in those days I lived football very intensely. I remember Celta won Tenerife, a great team, in semifinals 5-2 after two matches, first in Vigo and later in Tenerife. I wanted to go to Madrid, where the Final took place on 20 April, because it was a historical match. Maybe there would be the first important trophy in the history of the team, but finally I couldn´t go there and I had to watch the match on TV. I went with some friends to a bar of my town. Celta played against Zaragora and the match finished 0-0, and the extra time too, so it was necessary to go to the penalty shoot-out. The first four players of each team scored their shoots, but the fifth player of the Celta missed the penalty and then the last player of the Zaragoza scored his shoot, so Celta lost the Final. It was a very sad night, and only a curious thing. Seven years later Celta reached another time the Final Cup. Another time the rival was the Zaragoza and for the third time in the history of Celta lost the final...

It was a sad night

The most important event that has stuck in my memory for all these years is the Final of the Spanish Football Cup in 1994. I am a Celta de Vigo fan, and that year Celta reached the Final of the competition for the second time in the history. I wasn´t even born when Celta had played their first Final Cup.

In 1994 I was 17 years ago, and in those days I loved football very intensely. I remember Celta had beaten Tenerife, a great team, in the semifinals 5-2 after two matches, first in Vigo and later in Tenerife.

I wanted to go to Madrid, where the Final took place on 20 April, because it was a historical match. Maybe they would win the first important trophy in the history of the team. Things didn't work out, and I had to watch the match on TV with some friends in a bar in my town.

Celta played against Zaragora and the match finished 0-0. The extra time was scoreless too, so it was necessary to go to the penalty shoot-out. The first four players of each team scored their shots, but the fifth player of the Celta missed the penalty, and then the last player of the Zaragoza scored his shoot. Celta lost the Final.

It was a very sad night. Seven years later Celta reached the Final Cup again. This time the rival was the Zaragoza, but for the third time in history Celta lost the final.
