Granada, with the You First client Alex Geijo, Carlos Calvo, Siqueira and Juande, have secured promotion from the Segunda Division to La Liga for the first time since 1976 after they defeated Elche on away goals following a tense two-legged play-off that ended 1-1 on aggregate.
After a scoreless first-leg, everything was riding on tonight's game, which the Andalucian club edged thanks to a 28th minute goal from young Nigerian striker Odion Ighalo, who like so many others in the squad, is on loan from parent club Udinese.
