A high-flying lightning bolt

El Rayo made a plenary session in Santo Domingo. Three out of three. All his goals against Alcorcón came from the head and two of them from set pieces, so the vallecanos progress adequately in one of his pending subjects. Mario Suarez he was in charge of opening the scoring, finishing off a direct free kick thrown by Baby. Subsequently, Qasmi he flew almost acrobatic to hunt down a powerful Advíncula center. And finished the job Isi Palazon, at the exit of a corner kick. Those three heads were translated into three vital points to maintain his sixth place.

Thanks to the derby, Lightning has entered the podium of the Second Division teams that score the most with their heads. Málaga is the one who does it the most, with nine goals; followed by Espanyol, with eight. The franjirrojos are now seven, accompanied by Almería, Castellón, Oviedo and Zaragoza. But the case of the Vallecanos is exceptional because this type of so many is being something coral. Mario Suárez, Guerrero, Isi, Antoñín, Qasmi, Comesaña and Andrés Martín have distributed them, to the point that none have repeated. There are seven different scorers.

This high-flying lightning bolt is becoming common. And it is that the one of Alcorcón was not an isolated event. Not much less. This is how Guerrero managed to tie the game against Ponferradina, so four of the last eight targets of the Strip (50%) have come from the head. Little by little, the Vallecanos are approaching the record of last season, in which they reached fourteen. Then, Saveljich took the palm with three goals, seconded by Catena, Mario Suárez and Ulloa with two 'per head'. Never better said…
