Andorran forward Berto Rosas is enjoying a remarkable run of form with UD Logroñés in Spain's Segunda RFEF Group II. On loan from FC Andorra, the striker has netted seven goals over the last four matches, bringing his season total to 10 and placing him tied for second in the group's scoring charts alongside teammate Quique Rivero.
Rosas's hot streak includes a hat-trick in a 6-0 rout of Real Zaragoza's reserve side, followed by braces in a 5-0 derby win over SD Logroñés on 1 March and a 3-1 victory at Gernika last weekend. He also converted a penalty against Deportivo Aragón. These performances have helped Logroñés become the division's top-scoring team with 55 goals in 26 games, securing fifth place on 44 points—inside the promotion playoff spots, though 12 points behind leaders Real Unión, whom they face this Sunday at 5pm.
The 26-year-old attributes his resurgence to improved fitness after early-season setbacks. "I feel really good now," he said. "These last few weeks are down to my physical condition—I've recovered from the injuries that held me back, and the connection with my teammates makes a big difference. When the team knows each other well, it shows on the pitch."
Rosas praised Logroñés's attacking style, which relies on possession, creative wingers, and midfield playmakers a cut above the level. He experienced the intense Logroño derby atmosphere firsthand, noting the city rivalry but on-pitch respect. Despite ongoing plantar fasciitis from a prior surgery, he feels comfortable and is exceeding expectations.
The team's aim is promotion, with Rosas calling the club's facilities worthy of a higher division. "This league is tough, and playoffs are unpredictable—we'll take it game by game," he added. Late this month, he is due with Andorra's national team for friendlies against Montenegro and San Marino, a welcome duty despite the risk of disrupting his club momentum. "Representing your country is always the highlight," he said.
