In search of the goal and salvation

The Hrcules, after recovering the defensive solidity, receives an Andorra in crisis with the double challenge of breaking its scoring sequa and ending its nefarious streak at home. A triumph can take the Alicante set of direct descent several months later.

New act of faith in Rico Prez. Antonio Moreno's team receives an Andorra in each free in search of a victory that brings him closer to permanence. The Alicante team needs to confirm the slight improvement pointed out in the last two days, in which he closed his goalkeeper with lime and song, with a victory that, combined with a puncture of the Mestalla, can even take him out of the direct descent, from which he is separated only two points.

Although for that we will have to score at least one goal, something that the Hrcules has resisted for three games.

And, in addition, to end the curse in Rico Prez, where the Alicante team has not been happy since October 20, more than four months ago, when I hit the Ebro (3-0). “We do not look back, just forward,” says Antonio Moreno, who lives his third game on the bench Herculaneum.

The extremeo preparer, whom nobody in the club has confirmed in his position until beyond Sunday, you can not count on midfielder Pedro Torres, suspended for accumulation of reprimands, or with the side Felipe Alfonso, down for the next two months for a new muscle injury, but only with Alvaro Prez, who returns after serving the penalty.

It seems unlikely that there will be changes in the line of defense, to which Ral Ruiz returns as a side. The unknowns will be in the midfield and in the attack, where the technician can look for something different to wake up his strikers. A possible alignment of the Hrcules will be formed by Falcn; Ral Ruiz, Perone, Iguez, Nani; Yeray, Benito, De Lerma; Alfaro, Vergos and Benja.

Andorra has changed a lot with respect to the team that submitted the Hrcules in the first round. The whole of the Principality was then a leader, while now arriving in Alicante depressed after linking seven games without winning, the last three with defeat, a streak that has led Gabri, his coach.

Andorra will not be able to count on Carlos Martnez, a pichichi heculano, injured, although in any case the Catalan was not going to play by including the Alicante club a clause of fear in his recent transfer.

“It's a game that requires a lot of attention and concentration,” warns Moreno, who asks his team to be “daring and brave” in the attack game to break their bad offensive statistics and make a leap towards salvation.
