Juanmi Garcia In 5 minutes, Mark Mendez in ’63 and From Nava in the 66th minute the team scored goals Ruben TorrecillaBye Gorriti with 70% discount on Javi Molista goal from the Quatribarrata that could have been worth its weight in gold in the event of a draw on points with the blue and white at the end of the half. regular phase… But let’s not prejudge events: there are still a few days ahead to start aiming for the year to end with difficulty or not.
The fact is that Hercules not only broke its bad streak of games and results this Sunday, but also showed good and even very good results against its direct rivals, because if Europe tied up at home with Andratx (they won the match with a score of 2-0), Lleida lost in Sagunto Houses. The only team in the top group, along with Torrecilla, to win this Sunday was Badalona it surpassed the houses Manresa and ends the 21st round with a 39-point draw with Lleida and Hercules… leaving the blue and whites fourth due to the worst overall goalscoring ratio. Gorriti’s goal for Sant Andreu this Sunday was influenced by the above, although in a draw between two or more teams, specific odds and direct results are important. Leader after 21 days (13 until the end of the race) regular phase) with 40 points is Europe to visit Rico Perez Stadium In a few weeks.
1-4-2-3-1
Torrecilla used spins again, this time with a pattern change. WITH 1-4-2-3-1 in which Mangada And Miguel Marie They formed a pair of midfielders, Javi Moreno (With ‘Samu’ Vasquez doubling it in the attack phase), De la Nava and ‘Niko’ Espinosa The midfield three and Mendes were the standard, Hercules faced a clash in which their team would only have to win, be it civil or criminal, and in which they were better in general terms, they had more chances than their opponents, although not by much more. , what happens is that it has shown greater success.
The goal is to start
The event started well for Torrecilla’s team with a goal in the 5th minute: a side foul by Javi Moreno was converted by a header into a goal by Juanmi, who took advantage of a bad start Jamesgoal by Sant Andreu.
Perhaps because everything was turned upside down at the start, Hercules had less possession of the ball than San Andreu, who chose to attack on the right flank (which caused the team to suffer greatly). Candles) and thanks to actions from that side and especially the frontal absence Alexis Garcia well, it turns out Carlos Abad, tried to restore the tables on the scoreboard. Attack Parets del Valles was the best of San Andreu in the first half, in which Javi Moreno, very active, and Juanmi were therefore the most outstanding from the side of the blue and white, which only after a cross from “Samu” completed the goal in the second Palo De La Nava was able score the second before the break.
Better in the second half
After passing through the dressing room, Ruben Torrecilla’s team improved their possession and eliminated their opponents from 63 to 66 in just three minutes. Approaching the second through Mangada (the Alicante midfielder starred in a blue and white chance that did not end in a goal). goal this Sunday), Marcos Mendes took advantage of the ball behind De la Nava’s “quatribarrada” defense and scored the second goal (with a phenomenal gesture in front of his marker and better clarity). And with almost no time for the more than 7,000 spectators who filled the stands of Rico Perez to celebrate the goal, the third arrived – the work of De la Nava with a header into the center of Candelas, a goal with which, contrary to the fact that, as expected, the match was not closed in advance .
