Oviedo and Mallorca, two of the teams most in need of points in the league, presented us with a horrible game, unbecoming of what they call the league of stars. The most newsworthy were the two expulsions suffered by the local team just about to end the torture of the game. In two minutes, Oviedo was left with nine players and Mallorca was unable to create the slightest danger.
If we have to rescue something, it was some moments in the first half, and if we had to make a headline dedicated to Jan Virgili, we should define it as the frustration of the Catalan striker. Virgili starred in the best opportunities to break the deadlock, but ran into the Asturians’ best player, goalkeeper Aaron. In one of the best plays we remember the team, started by Sergi Darder and finished by Virgili, only the great intervention of the goalkeeper prevented a goal. From there everything became nonsense, with two teams just waiting not to lose the ball and not to score.
The question now is to know where Mallorca can win if it has not done so in the field of the last ranked in the league?. The Arrasate team continues with the endemic evil of creating little football and of maintaining a certain criterion when you have the ball. By the way, we also do not understand the changes of the Basque coach very well. Remove Sergi Darder from the field to give entrance to the most insignificant player in the squad, Morlanes, doesn’t seem to make much sense, unless it’s due to injury. But this is Jagoba Arrasate’s decision and, of course, it must be respected. Ultimately, Mallorca is not improving, it continues to show signs of who knows what and has not yet left the delicate zone. Yesterday some were talking about a “semi-final”the next day in Son Moix, against Elche is approaching a final.
