The right-wing duo of Pol Lirola and Álex Collado Thanks to his verticality, he left very good feelings at the beginning of the league championship., He is back. And it can stay. Since repeating this couple, Carmona’s muscle tear, possible loss of Palacios due to a muscle problem that has also saved a lot of minutes this season (1,829), as well as the development of the player he borrowed from FC Barcelona – returned after a complicated injury – and coach Sebastián Beccacece’ ‘s confidence in Josan – he played just 25 minutes in three games -. Added to this is a match sanction for Gumbau.
couple excited
Circumstances could make the Lirola-Collado match return, which clashed five times until the World Cup timeout, scored two goals and excited the French fans. they have seen a leap in quality with newcomers. An inconclusive development. This campaign on Elche is like almost nothing.
Coach seeks resources
On Sunday, Beccacece had to pull it from the bottom of the closet. Collado made his debut with the Argentine coach in the Osasuna-Elche discount, albeit for a very short time. He was returning from a serious muscle injury and the coach was in the Girona preview of the Catalan I was ready to add game time. He did so in the last game, where he was substituted for Raúl Guti in the first half.
Meanwhile, Lirola entered the field.Replacing Colombian Helibelton Palacios. A sharp hole had formed on the inside of his left thigh. It was discontinued as a precaution and is currently awaiting testing.
The man from Mollet del Vallès took the field again in the competition. He had not done so since his visit to the Bernabéu on February 15 (4-0) into the second half. That was the only day he played during the Machín era. He had not played since the last game before the World Cup break. Specifically, Pol Lirola scored the only franchise goal for Elche-Girona (1-2) on 8 November. That was the last day the Collado and the tandem could be seen.acting as an insider rather than a right wing.
Previously, consortia were commonplace. Both played in Elche-Almeria (1-1), where Collado scored. 22 August Five days later, they were again in the top five at Elche-Real Sociedad (0-1). And they replayed on 11 September at the Elche-Athletic Club (1-4) and on 5 November at home in Valladolid (2-1). But both have been changed. Then came the last of the aforementioned matchmaking in Elche-Girona.
From that moment on, it started again because of the national teams, Collado’s injury, Lirola’s illness, who could not gain Machín’s trust… And because of the needs of the team.
numbers
Separately, Lirola has only played 10 games this year., seven of them scored a goal as a start. Total of 612 minutes. Small trunk for an incoming signature to improve the existing one. Palacios has earned him the position for most of the LaLiga. on his behalf Collado took part in 11 games, eight kickoffs and 584 minutes. He also scored the first goal for Elche this season against Almería. Bad summary of a player coming to make a difference.
In the attack, Álex Collado fired eight shots and six of them scored and six decisive dribbles created 12 scoring chances. On defense, he blocked the opponent’s four shots. lyre He finished and scored only once. He dribbled seven times 16 is fine. He created seven scoring chances.
equal ownership
When Collado and Lirola play together, there is a piece of data that reflects that Elche has at least equal possession of the ball to her opponent. In the six matches they played together, this figure fluctuated between 44% and 55%, Positive numbers for a team like Elche with the ball as low as 28% against Lightning or 22% against Barcelona. On the contrary, none of the tandem encounters ended in victory. Five losses and one draw, of course Elche has only 13 points from two wins and seven draws.
This morning the players came to practice together. They’re both from Barcelona and have supported each other at their worst since the start of the season. Now they can say that they are playing with the new manager and they have a high probability of repeating. Those who have not premiered with Beccacece so far are Enzo Roco, Gonzalo Verdú, Lisandro Magallán and Pape Cheikh.
