It was just a year ago that Real Oviedo fans were celebrating a triumphant return to Spain's top flight. Now, the party is over. The club has become the first team relegated from LaLiga in the 2025/26 season, and the numbers tell a painful story.

With a 1-1 draw between Girona and Rayo Vallecano, Oviedo's fate was sealed. The Carbayones can no longer escape the drop and must now prepare for the difficult journey back to LaLiga 2. It's a harsh reality for a team that once dreamed of stability among Spain's elite.

The stats don't lie: 18 defeats in 35 matches are just too many to survive in such a competitive league. Only six wins all season highlight a campaign that never found its rhythm. When you're losing more than half your games, staying up becomes nearly impossible.

For fans and players alike, this is a bitter pill to swallow. But in football, as in life, every setback is a chance to rebuild. Real Oviedo will need to regroup, learn from this season's struggles, and come back stronger. The journey back to LaLiga starts now.
