Cádiz approved and suspended: a good defense ensures success

Ledesma. He played a great game, being one of the great people responsible for the point he got at the Camp Nou. The goalkeeper started the match very well, making several good saves and postponing the Blaugrana goal, but in minute 32, Messi did not forgive from the penalty spot. The goalkeeper did not guess the side of the forward and could not do anything. It did not collapse therefore, on the contrary, it continued concentrated and stopping all the shots culés.

Iza Carcelén. He lived up to the challenge despite the complexity. He was overcome on occasion, but this game will help him regain his level, which had been diminished in recent days.

Fali. Spectacular match of the Valencian. He returned to the center of the defense in the absence of a penalty from Cala and the team took a quality leap at the defensive level. He always kept the defensive line well positioned and this caused Barça to commit several offside. Always haranguing his own.

Marcos Mauro. Good game for the center-back, who dried up from running and blocking balls. At some point he was overcome, which is logical against a rival like the Catalan team, but generally he had a good performance.

‘Pacha’ Espino. Well the side, who had a difficult situation: cover Dembélé. The Uruguayan suffered at times, but still did not stop working. He continues to pick up the pace of competition after overcoming the coronavirus and it is one of the best news for this team.

Salvi. He had to be substituted in the 62nd minute, he himself requested the change to have the twin loaded. He ended up exhausted by giving the maximum performance the time he was on the field. He managed to put in some centers despite the difficulty of beating Barça's defenders. He was worn down on defense to help the team resist the opponent's attacks.

graceful. Replaced at 58 'by José Mari. The Basque fulfilled in the center of the field, destruction is his strongest weapon and he brought it out. Garrido's sacrifice is undoubted.

Ruben Nephew. Despite committing the failure that ended with the Barça goal, the footballer was very active and was also the protagonist in both Cádiz, since he forces the penalty for the yellows, the first of the season. He defended and attacked as the team agreed.

Jairo Izquierdo. He is still a player who fails too many times, but today was a difficult game and he delivered. He helped the Pacha and brought speed. Good attitude.

Perea. He didn't perform as a winger, so he couldn't appear or shine too brightly. Of course, he did a great defensive job, which was what Cádiz needed against Barcelona.

Negredo. No balls reached him, there were almost no chances. This time it was his turn to play alone in tip. Sacrifice in defense, like the whole team.

From the bench.

Jose Mari. It was his return a month and a half later after overcoming his injury. An important man on this team. It was noticed that he needed it and adding minutes little by little, and more playing at the level that the meeting demanded.

Alex Fernandez. Author of the penalty that gave Cádiz the tie. It is still lethal from eleven meters. His return to the team with the injury overcome is great news for the yellows.

‘Choco’ Lozano. Like his teammate Negredo, whom he replaced, he was alone in the lead, but the team did not attack either. His work became defensive again, and the Honduran gives everything to help his teammates.

Ivan Alejo. His role was the same as that of Salvi (and that of the whole team), defending and waiting for the opportunity to go against it, although that happened on a few occasions.

Jens jonsson. The other expected return. The team has suffered a lot of casualties, and that they add minutes again is the best news for this team. His sacrifice is not negotiable and he came out to give refreshment and help stop Barça, as well as to add minutes.
