The Liga Adelante continues to give moments of excitement in a truly even category where no team is clearly superior to another.. One more chronicle and one less day to finish the first round in the Second Division and, from Hanging on Football, as is tradition, we bring you the corresponding analysis of the day 17.
The striped elastics, white and blue, continue to dominate the ranking with authority. They continue with their particular relief at the head of the table. This week he has to command Deportivo thanks to the victory achieved in Riazor by 2-1 against Alavés de Mandía, that was released on the bench after the dismissal during the week of Natxo González.
“fixed x”: Mallorca resisted with 10 players for more than an hour against an insistent Numancia who could not break the goalless tie. The Recreational, leader until yesterday, missed some invaluable points at home against a surprising Jaen, the match ended tied at one. For your part, Mirandés managed to save a point against Murcia thanks to Caneda's goal with two minutes to go. Point that does not ensure Arconada's continuity on the Anduva bench.
the canary derby: There is tremendous expectation in the Heliodoro Rodríguez to relive one of the most exciting derbies in our football. Tenerife overcame a Unión Deportiva Las Palmas with goals from Ricardo from a penalty and Perez Ayoze twice. The match was marked by the expulsion of Barbosa, visiting goalkeeper, to the 20 minutes of play that clearly conditioned the match. Is the famous penalty and expulsion play too much punishment for a team?? Let's open a debate...
The assault: Last week we talked about the improved Alcorcón and in this one they were the best team in the Liga Adelante. Those from Santo Domingo defeated Quique Setién's men in the Anxo Carro de Lugo, who have been losing steam in recent weeks. The yellows were able to take the 3 points in the final stretch of the game when, minutes before he had stayed with 10 men for the expulsion of Héctor Verdes.
Los cracks: we continue with the Alcorcón, because the right back Iribas, with two goals and Sergio Mora, author of the two assists were the real culprits of the assault. The one who completes the trident of stars is Ayoze Pérez, which is becoming a fixture in this section. The young pearl of Tenerife stands out above his teammates, and it is already on the agendas of many great Europeans. watch out for him.
The subsidiaries: both continue to be touched by the magic wand. Barca B clearly prevailed by 2-0 to Sabadell, who saw how the Olmo effect ended. For your part, Real Madrid Castilla won again, this time with a tight 3-2, to a Girona in which Bordas is not enough. Since the arrival of José Manuel Díaz, the Madrid subsidiary has not known defeat and little by little they cut points with the place that gives the right to permanence.
We complete the day with local victories by 2-1 from Ponferradina and Zaragoza, against Eibar and Córdoba respectively. A great goal from Cordoba Javi Lara broke the negative streak in a frigid Toralín due to the low turnout of the public and an unbearable cold. Besides, in the capital tomorrow, they saw how José Mari undid the tables in added time with something more than fortune. lucky or not, Zaragoza links its third consecutive victory and begins to peek into the positions that give the right to play the promotion play-off. To finish we highlight the victory of Sporting de Gijón by 0-1, with a goal by Jara in minute two, in front of Hercules. The Asturians have already placed third in the table, and everything is happiness in Mareo after Scepovic's recent statements, in which he was very happy after the unbeatable streak of his teammate Lekic with whom he is delighted to share the point of attack. Recall that it was young Stefan who started the season like a shot, and now his compatriot has relieved him.
To end this week we would like to mention the LFP's attempt to reduce the minimum interprofessional salary by 10% in the silver division, of 60.000 a 54.000 euros. Naturally, how we live in a formidable economic moment, the players union has opposed.
