Espanyol subscribed to the epic and ended up winning a game that was uphill for him. The parakeet team was surprised in the first half and showed that they continued to have those defensive problems that already condemned them to relegation last season. Instead, in the second halfthe successful substitutions of Luis García, an impeccable Ramón Ramos and the encouragement of the 19,500 attendees at the Stage Front Stadium turned the 0-2 scoreline at half-time so that the three points stayed at home.
The meeting was expected to be promising, since Espanyol made their debut before their people and found themselves with an undefeated Amorebieta. The blue and whites, as they have been accustomed to since Luis Garcia He is the team’s coach, they sought leadership in the first actions. However, Amorebieta’s effective pressure canceled out Keidi and Pol Lozano from the start, forcing Espanyol to look for resources to get the ball to the attackers.
The first occasions arrived quickly, in which Jofre’s runs and the correct reading of Melamed facilitated the creation of attacking plays. Although the perica right wing, also with Omar, was being the offensive weapon of Luis García’s men, the left flank with Pere Milla y Puado was being canceled and disappeared in the first part of the game. For his part, Puado was close to scoring on several occasions, but the defensive solidity of the Love (with the establishment of a block under solvent), allowed the Gipuzkoans to nullify the attacks of the locals. In addition, in the commemorative minute 21, Brian Oliván’s injury led Brazilian Ramón Ramos, a left-back from Panathinaikos who joined Espanyol in this summer market, to make his debut with the Catalan team.
Around minute 40, Espanyol did not show the necessary confidence to control the game, having difficulties to finish the plays. He tried to get the balls to his attackers, but always more through long passes from Cabrera and Calero than through leaks from Paul and Keidi. The parakeets achieved long and deep possessions (especially thanks to Jofre’s skill) but not very dangerous. In addition, Amorebieta also managed to have clear chances and showed great counterattacking capacity.
Near the end of the first half, Pol Lozano he lost the ball that cost Espanyol the first goal. After the loss of the Catalan midfielder, Rayco He drove to the perica goal and left the ball to Eraso to beat Pacheco. Five minutes later, already in added time, Álvaro Núñez slipped in between the debutant Ramón Ramos and Jofre to beat Pacheco and put the score at 0-2.
Espanyol’s comeback
Facing the second part, Espanyol had to change the approach and its way of approaching the goal of brother in law, in order to finish more plays. Already in the 47th minute, Puado was very close to scoring the first parakeet goal, but ended up clearing the Amorebieta defense. Just three minutes later, after a lateral cross, the ball passed in front of several players, but it was calero who scored the goal that would be the first goal of the comeback.
Throughout the second half, Espanyol achieved the verticality they craved and needed in the first. With the entries of Salvi y Braithwaite, Espanyol got closer to Amorebieta’s goal, and players like Pol Lozano and Pere Milla appeared more in Espanyol’s movement and ball leak. Likewise, the occasions of the Gipuzkoan team were reduced to practically zero throughout the second half, having lost the firmness that allowed them to score two goals.
In this way, Espanyol tightened the ranks of Amorebieta more and more, and it seemed that the second goal was about to fall, and it did. First was Salviwho in minute 78 tied the game with a good shot that served to vindicate him after a questionable performance last day in Miranda de Ebro. Already in minute 83, Espanyol consummated the comeback, thanks to a shot from Salvi Sánchez and a head of calerowho became the top scorer for the parakeet team.
After this meeting, the parrots already add up 10 points in the classification and make sure they rest in second place for at least one more week, waiting for a Zaragoza More than consolidated in the category, I ended up skating at some point to take the lead.
