Lack of goals is one of the main problems faced by Elche CF in the current season. Elche group, With 14 goals, they are the third least productive team in the entire Second Division LaLiga Hypermotion..
Only Huesca (11) and Cartagena (13)Teams in relegation positions scored fewer goals than Franjiverdes. HE Tenerife, One place ahead of the Beccacece team; And Oviedoone visible behind; They, like Elche, scored 14 goals.
The Elche club had to race against time to strengthen their attack in the final days of the summer market. outlets Lucas Boyé, Pere Milla and Ezequiel PonceThey kept the Franjiverde attack to a minimum.
They arrived just as the deadline to include players was about to expire Sergio León and Borja Garcés. Two experienced and proven strikers in the silver category of Spanish football.
However Injuries, two from Melilla and the other from Cordoba, barely prevented both from being available at the same time.. The two even went to the infirmary together.
During this time, Mourad remained the only specific “9” in the squad, and a playmaker like Óscar Plano took on the offensive responsibility of the Elche team.. The man from Madrid is the top scorer of the Franjiverde team with four goals.
Leon scored two goals in eleven games, while Garcés scored one goal in seven games played..
For the shock of it next Sunday (16:15), in front of Amorebieta, Beccacece collects the artillery and after a long time he will again be able to trust Sergio León and Borja Garcés at the same time. They haven’t met in Elda since last October 15th.
HE Striker on loan from Atletico de Madrid recovery times are shorter tear in the biceps femoris of his left leg and in the last two games Royal Zaragoza and before last saturday SpanishHe could already play in the last minutes. In both matches, the Melilla player had two good goal opportunities in the short time he was on the field, and the goalkeepers prevented them. Dani Rebollo and Pacheco.
After a two-week preparation period with the group, Garcés is already in position to start on Sunday In front of Amorebieta.
Sergio León was injured in the state derby against Eldense on October 15.. He was diagnosed with an injury to the semimembranosus muscle in his left leg, with a complete tear of the involved tendon. His time out depended on his progress and everything seemed to indicate that he would be out of action for almost three months and would not return until after the Christmas break.
But, His development is very positive and the Franjiverde attacker is looking to re-emerge this Sunday..
He was seen doing most of the exercises last week with other teammates.. It was not even impossible that he could be included in the squad for the Espanyol match. However Doctors and coaching staff thought it was a bit hasty and risky..
If nothing goes wrong, he will at least be on the bench in the match against the Basque team..
Leon is looking forward to returning. He worked hard during these one and a half months. He even goes to the stadium on days when the team is resting, like on Monday. in EHe trained on Tuesday, trained with his teammates and he had good feelings. Therefore, the return of the striker from Córdoba, everything shows that this is already a reality.
Rodrigo Mendoza and John will not be in the team
In this Tuesday’s session, John also did most of the work with the band. The young player is postponing his return after the fibula surgery he had on July 19. It was expected to be ready by November this month. However In recent weeks he had been noticing some discomforts that did not allow him to feel good and confident.. He is slowly assimilating them. It is difficult for him to return to the field before the Christmas break, but this possibility is not ruled out.
It is difficult for Rodrigo Mendoza to be among those selected as well as John, who is to all intents and purposes already a first team player, despite having a reserve team record. The young Murcian midfielder is adrift A muscle problem on the last match day against Espanyol prevented him from being included in the squad.. This Tuesday he did not train with the group and worked with physiotherapists in the Martínez Valero gym. It seems difficult for him to arrive in time for the match against Amorebieta this Saturday.
