Kibet on Target: Celta Vigo Juvenil A Crush Montañeros in 5-1 Rout
The Aldrine Kibet era in Spain continues to gather pace. On Sunday, March 1, 2026, the Kenyan "wonderkid" was once again the protagonist as Celta Vigo Juvenil A delivered a clinical 5-1 away victory over Montañeros CF, reinforcing their title credentials in the División de Honor.
A Dominant Display
Celta Vigo entered the match as heavy favorites, and they didn't disappoint. After an early scare where the hosts looked to sit deep and frustrate, Celta’s superior technical quality took over. By the time Kibet struck in the second half, the result was already beyond doubt.
Kibet’s goal—the fourth of the afternoon—was a trademark finish, highlighting the positional intelligence and composure that has seen him become a fan favorite in Vigo. The win marks Celta's fifth consecutive league victory, a run of form that has transformed them into the division's most feared attacking unit.
The Title Race Heats Up
The victory keeps Celta Vigo firmly in the hunt for the DivisiĂłn de Honor (Group 1) title.
- The Standings: Celta now sit in second place with 51 points (16W, 3D, 2L).
- The Gap: They trail leaders Deportivo La Coruña (55 points) by just four points, crucially holding a game in hand against Pontevedra CF.
With Deportivo also winning their weekend fixture, the race for the top spot is increasingly becoming a two-horse race that could go down to the final weekend.
Eyeing the "Double"
While the league remains a priority, Celta Vigo’s schedule is about to get significantly more intense. After their upcoming league clash against Val Miñor FC, the team will turn their focus to one of the biggest matches in the club's youth history.
On Wednesday, March 11, 2026, Kibet and his teammates will face Real Betis in the Copa del Rey Juvenil semi-finals. Having already dispatched Athletic Bilbao in the quarters—a match where Kibet scored and assisted—the Kenyan sensation will be looking to lead his side to a historic national final.
