Sebastián continues from Beccacece without finding his way to Elche and this Sunday in Girona Third defeat in three matchesAfter losing (2-0) at Montilivi, in a match where the green-greens did not know how to complete their moment of dominance at the beginning of each half and saw how the rojiblancos did the opposite; Each time the goal was taken, they took the initiative of the confrontation.

team beccacece He jumped onto the field with great enthusiasm and eagerness to take the initiative in the duel. And he did so in a fairly smooth first half hour, when he amassed a large number of players on the opposing pitch and kept the locals’ offense to a minimum. However, the Franjiverdes were not able to translate this spatial domain in extremely explicit situations.

After a few rebounds, Gumbau took the first two with an off-court shot and an inside chop. In this last match, Gazzaniga made a nice save by changing hands without being surprised by the Catalan source. Probably the most active, Tete Morente tried several times on the left wing, without success. Best of all, a highly flawed control prevented Guti from facing the opposing rook after a good assist.

In the starting 11, Beccacece’s bet was definitely Aragonese and she replaced the sanctioned Fidel. Although Guti gradually disappeared as the first half passed, he started out cheerfully like the team in general. The boundary between one team’s dominance and the other was determined by two moves: a faulty shot by Andalusia between Morente and Guti, and a wall that ended in a free kick from afar, and Alex GarciaThe substitute for the injured Borja García tried to surprise Werner from afar.

He failed, but this opportunity aroused Gironacontinued to dominate the scene. Unlike Elche, the Catalans found the goal prize just before the timeout. Before, mascara He had avoided a fright by throwing himself down to protect a shot from the sideline by Iván Martín, and Gumbau made another attempt with this left foot, and Gazzaniga again responded well.

Castellanos emerged as 0-0 appeared motionless before we walked through the locker rooms.. Girona’s offensive player knew how to take advantage of an overlook in the Elche defender’s signals to unbeatably head a nice half from Toni Villa’s left. Elche appeared to be knocked out once again, no worse than his opponent. The goal also encouraged Girona, who could double the discount advantage, but Werner cleared Javi Hernández’s diagonal shot for the corner.

Good start suppressed by 2-0

Beccacece’s initial decision to seek backlash was a double change: Pol Lirola and Collado, Palacios and Raúl Guti. The Elche people regained control of the conflict with the joint game of Collado, Gumbau and Pere Milla. The latter’s clever backward header failed to find direction towards the three posts.

The football player, who was taken on loan from Barça, started the game well, after a few minutes he put Barça to the test again. Gazzaniga He was repelled by the Argentine goalkeeper with a dangerous left kick from afar. John went to rejection for riveting on an almost empty goal, but Arnau was careful to eliminate the danger to the local area.

Like a carbon copy of what happened in the first half, Elche saw Girona neutralize its dominance even earlier this time. And the Catalans forgave little. After an incident arising from the loss of John in midfield, which Werner saved with his face, Oriol Romeu made a great 2-0 shot from outside the penalty area with his left foot.. In this action, the franchisdes once again paid the price for their weakness in gambling.

Girona’s second goal left Beccacece’s men no chance of getting anything positive from their visit to Montilivi. There were more changes for both teams in the final minutes, but neither the locals were so overwhelmed to jeopardize their victory nor the visitors had any way of believing in a comeback. Moreover, Eze Ponce sent off in overtime.
