Playing career

Born in Logroño, La Rioja, Corral spent his first decade as a senior in Segunda División B, starting with CD Aurrerá de Vitoria in 2002 and going on to represent CD Recreación de La Rioja, Zamora CF, CF Palencia, UE Sant Andreu, Águilas CF,[1] CD Izarra and CD Mirandés.[2] He also competed briefly in Tercera División, having played the first part of the 2009–10 season with CD Alfaro.[3]

Corral featured in 26 matches (more than 2,100 minutes of play) in the 2011–12 campaign, as Mirandés promoted to Segunda División for the first time in its history. He made his debut in the competition on 1 September 2012, playing the full 90 minutes in a 4–0 away win against Xerez CD.[4] His first goal was scored on 15 March 2014, in the 2–0 victory at Deportivo Alavés.[5]

In the summer of 2016, after 162 competitive appearances at the Estadio Municipal de Anduva (97 in the second tier), the 33-year-old Corral returned to the lower leagues with CD Tudelano.[6]

Corral retired in January 2019, being immediately appointed team physio at his last club.[7]
