Another Jorge Molina record

The historic day of Pomegranate, with his debut in the group stage of the Europa League, and with a victory in his visit to PSV Eindhoven (the fourth in a row in Europe), he left another detail. Jorge Molina, whose goal was the 1-1 draw and that, in the end, would serve to start the Nasrid comeback, broke another record: became the longest-running scorer for a Spanish team in any international competition, as Fran Martínez from LaLiga en Directo points out.

The one from Alcoy, at 38 years and 183 days, he surpassed Ferenc Puskás, who achieved it with 38 years, 173 days. Therefore, it continues to demonstrate that goals and quality are not lost over time. He already did it during his time at Getafe, where he gained promotion and played a European competition as a key piece for José Bordalás. And now, Jorge Molina repeats his luck with Diego Martínez's Granada, where already registers three targets in this season start. One in LaLiga and the other two in Europa League.

In addition, the veteran Spanish striker he also became the Nasrid side's top scorer in the Europa League group stage. He entered the starting team after Roberto Soldado tested positive for COVID-19. Thus, he more than fulfilled his role as Granada's top reference, helping to add his first three European points and lead Group E. Jorge Molina has already conquered the Johan Cruyff Arena in azulón. Tonight he adds rojiblanco's Philips Stadion to his list. Let it not be said that he did not make history in the Netherlands.

The record man went through the microphones of the Onda Cero program 'El Transistor'. Paradoxically, this Sunday he will face his most recent ex-team, Getafe. Therefore, to the question of whether he would celebrate a goal in the case of scoring, he was most resounding with his answer.

“If I score Getafe I won't celebrate it out of respect for the club and the fans. I'm going to feel a little strange on Sunday in Getafe. It has been four wonderful years there and the feeling will be a little strange”, sentence. On the other hand, He also pointed out that he maintains a “good relationship” with Bordalás and Ángel Torres. The first, in addition, pointed to have “differences” in the method with respect to Diego Martínez, although both “like the order and the team word.”
