The final round of the Primera B Metropolitana 2025 is coming to a dramatic close. Fénix has already been relegated, leaving only one spot available for promotion to Primera C. The main protagonists of this drama are Sacachispas (44 pts), UAI Urquiza (44 pts), and Deportivo Merlo (42 pts).
Sacachispas (44 pts, 40 PJ) has completed its fixtures and is not in control of its own destiny. That same Sacachispas that made the whole country laugh now waits in silence to see if other results will save them. A draw or a victory will secure their place. However, if El Charro wins and UAI Urquiza gets at least one point, the team from Soldati will be relegated.
UAI Urquiza (44 pts, 39 PJ) visits Laferrere, who is fighting for a spot in the Reducido.
Deportivo Merlo (42 pts, 39 PJ) visits San Martín de Burzaco. If they win, they are safe; if they draw or lose, they are relegated directly.
If Merlo does not win, Lila will remain in the category. If Merlo loses and Sacachispas wins, they will have to play a playoff match. Next weekend, the final round will be played, and the relegation/promotion matches will likely be held simultaneously, so it will be known immediately after they finish if the last team is relegated or if there will be a playoff.
While on social media the club became a phenomenon due to its political posts, on the pitch it faces its most difficult hour. While the "Lila's" CM manager was generating likes and going viral, the team on the field was sinking in the table.
