This Elche CF is shooting upwards. Elche group He set the course towards his dream and goal of promotion to the First League.
The Franjiverdes defeated Burgos fair and square and add t’sThird win in four matches in the second round, still does not know defeat. Moreover, Beccacece’s team has gone five games without conceding a goal and Dituro continues to add to his amazing statistics and since his arrival at Elche he still has not seen his target pierced.
This wonderful trajectory allows Elche to position itself. for the first time in the season and temporarilyat the expense of what their opponents did the rest of the day; inside in fourth place, in a “play-off” position and just one point away from direct promotion places.
The party was complete. In extra time, in penalty kicks, After the signal has been given by the referee, after the VAR has been informed and consulted, Nico Castro made the gesture of passing the shot to Mourad, who was making his debut as a striker.. I needed something to lift my spirits.
It looks like B is gradually getting better at the expense of adapting to winter transfers.eccacece finds its typical teamIn the absence of the striker. The Franjiverde coach made only one change to the starting 11 that won in Andorra. Mourad appeared as a substitute in two matches. Borja Garcés was selected in the Principality and yesterday against Burgos, Manu opted for more mobility for Nieto. The rest is the same.
Yes, there were some tactical differences. Nico Fernández played mostly on the right interioror, leave Deep group for Sergio Carreira. Mario Gaspar leaned more to the right instead of joining the middle of the pitch It was John – his natural position – and who came down to receive the ball played from behind.
Jon Pérez Bolo was also clear about his game plan. High pressure to try to steal and retreating from the defensive area when they can’t, looking for quick counter attackswith Joni Montiel and Edu Espiau.
Elche took control of the ball from the first moment. But the first event was the bugalesas. a loss Alex FebasHe was about to capitalize on it at the 3-quarter mark Edu Espiau. John and Bigas pulled back well and they made it harder for him to shoot, which ultimately went up.
The Franjiverdes reacted and had the two clearest opportunities of the first half in just one minute. In a center in the heart of the region, Manu Nieto protected the ball well and took a shot, but Caro grew up and blocked the ball.
Immediately after, Another center from Febas finished off Tete Morente’s volley but could not pull the ball well and Nieto couldn’t get the rebound.
Due to the abuse and destruction it looked like Elche’s team could take the lead on the scoreboard.
However, it wasn’t like that. He even laid siege to the castle of Burgos Dituro. He took five corners without any big chances. It is worrying that they are one of the best teams in the Second League in terms of set pieces.
Beccacece team could not find the reward for its superiority and best game and halftime was reached before the scoreboard moved.
The second half started similarly to the first half. At a time when Burgos were well protected at the back and had the first chance. Launch of the rising Borja González.
