Espanyol costumes

The Spanish the party of Getafe with Manu Morlanes, Sergi Darder, Nico Melamed and Óscar Melendo, four players who feel comfortable in a dominating team with long possessions. But the team of Vicente Moreno spent 20 minutes without smelling her. At the beginning of the second half he turned and played with two forwards and a double midfielder with Yangel and Morlanes, to end the game with Nany Dimata, Loren Morón, Wu Lei and Javi Puado. Desperate. A repeated symptom in most away games. They are the costumes of an Espanyol that at home wears the best clothes, but outside it does not find “regularity” as Leandro Cabrera commented.

Mallorca 1-0 Spanish

The Blue and White team started the match with a 4-4-2 with RdT and Dimata in attack and ended it with the same tactical disposition. At no time was he comfortable. Subjected in the first half by a Mallorca that generated more chances and found it 1-0, in the second half dominated the game, but did not create danger. This time there were no tactical variations, but from that meeting Vicente Moreno stopped playing with two specific forwards. Dimata did not start again until Sunday in Getafe.

Betis 2-2 Spanish

After the great staging of Espanyol against Atlético at the RCDE Stadium, Vicente Moreno repeated the 4-2-3-1 with Morlanes, Darder and Melendo, as in Getafe. Espanyol went ahead 0-1 with a goal from Aleix Vidal and was able to score 0-2 on an occasion that Adrián Embarba forgave, but Betis also arrived in danger to Diego López’s area. Before the break, he turned the game around (2-1), the logical thing in the first half with 13 Betic shots and six from the perico team.

In the second half, Moreno returned to play with two forwards but the scenery did not improve. Loren entered for Melendo, and Betis continued erre que erre but without success: 11 Betic shots and five from Espanyol, to take the prize of 2-2 in the add-on.

Sevilla 2-0 Spanish

The formula that before Betis is repeated. Espanyol, who in the first half was able to go ahead with a goal from RdT that the images did not collect but was canceled by the referees, found themselves with a goal against in the 12th minute. The game was even but with more dominance and chances for Sevilla, who in the first half shot eight times on goal for only two for the parakeet team.

In the second half, Dimata entered, and Espanyol went from 4-2-3-1 to 4-4-2. With that disguise, Espanyol improved, taking advantage of Delaney’s expulsion in the 64th minute. He pitched up to 11 times for four of Sevilla. He deserved more prize but Rafa Mir’s 2-0 came.

Elche 2-2 Espanyol

Also in Elche, Espanyol quickly changed their approach to halftime after a weak first half in which they lost 1-0. The entry of Morlanes by David López, in this game, did give dynamism to the attack and in just two minutes the Blue and Whites took the lead (1-2). On this occasion Vicente Moreno did not change the system, but he did hit the key in the second section, where Espanyol was more comfortable.

As a summary, and after these precedents, Espanyol is never a regular away from home except for the first match against Osasuna (0-0), when they played the game face to face and had the same chances as the rival to win the duel. Those of Vicente Moreno have several costumes to play away from home, and the coach uses them in each game. The formula, at the moment, is not being adequate away from the RCDE Stadium.
