70 | Gazette Life | November 2025GAZETTE | FOOTBALLUD LANZAROTE HAVE HAD A GOOD START TO THE SEASON WITH FOUR WINS, A DRAW AND A DEFEAT LEAVING THEM IN THE TOP SPOT.The Rojillos (The Reds) are relishing being back at their home ground the Ciudad Deportiva in Arrecife after spending a season in T%u00edas whilst renovation work took place. Making the Ciudad Deportiva a fortress is paramount if promotion is to be achieved and obtaining maximum points in their opening three matches was a fine start.A 4-1 home win and a superb 0-2 away win in the last two weeks in September against two promotion rivals, CD Mensajero and CD Atl%u00e9tico Paso, has given Lanzarote bags of confidence.Long-term Lanzarote fans won%u2019t be jumping for joy just yet as they have been there before on too many occasions and seen it fizzle out. But one thing is certain - they will be delighted by the attacking and pressing style of play that their new manager %u00c1ngel L%u00f3pez has installed within the squad.On the 5th October Lanzarote presented their new addition to the club, the Walking Football / F%u00fatbol Caminando team to their fans. Men need to be at least into their 50th year and ladies 40th. Anyone wishing to join or fancies a game whilst TOP OF THE LEAGUE!
