El Espanyol, screenplay by Emmy

The Emmy Awards were distributed at dawn on Monday and none went to the Spanish, although his serial seems written by the very Hollywood scriptwriters. Because, in any superproduction worth its salt, the main course is reserved for the final minutes. The plot explodes, the outcome is discovered, and everything changes. This is the case in the games of the parakeet in this League, especially in the last two, against Atlético de Madrid and Betis.

At Benito Villamarín he gave back the added time what he had taken from Vicente Moreno's men at the RCDE Stadium the week beforer. Instead of receiving both the defeat in 99 ', as Thomas Lemar did for Atlético on the 12th (1-2), this time it was Leandro Cabrera who saved a point for the parrots in 97 ' (2-2), always in the last seconds of the eighteen and eight minute extension decreed, respectively, by the referee. But the thing does not stop there. Without going further, Nabil Fekir's provisional 2-1 for Betis had also come in minute 48 of the first half.

In fact, six of the eight goals that have been seen in Espanyol matches have occurred, at the earliest, in the last quarter of an hour of either party. This was also the case with Raúl de Tomás 'goal against Atlético (40'), with Yannick Carrasco's draw for the rojiblancos (79 ') and with Willian José's 1-1 this past Sunday at Villamarín (41') ), in addition to the three goals described above. And also in the final minutes other decisive events have occurred, such as the expulsion of Sergi Gómez in Mallorca, in 93 ', or that of Germán Pezzella on this last day, in 78 '.

It would take six points instead of three

Yes to Espanyol matches the final stages were cut short, no red card would have been seen and only two goals would have been scored: Dani Rodríguez's for Mallorca in Son Moix (0-1) and Aleix Vidal's on Sunday against Betis, who scored on 16 '. And it would take six points (the result of a victory, three draws and a loss) instead of the current three. Perhaps the scriptwriters of this Hollywood series are doing a kind of ‘spoiler’ to the parakeet about what they must take care of to start winning matches.
