They started low on the scoreboard but never lost their face in a game in which they were superior and they knew how to show it on the scoreboard minutes later.
Goals and gifts
Released in Cup of the seriousness that sometimes implies The league and their tasks, Valladolid and I raised They provided a good first part for the midweek football fan. None showed their complexes and they competed without vertigo in all the plays. Who first demonstrated it was the local team with the signature of Toni Villa. The Murcian made a good pass from Kike
Perez and put the toe in before anyone else to send the ball to save in the 12th minute.
To all this, the I raised, who did not deserve to lose after a good start, he made an effort not to be left behind and put the direct one without betraying. First he warned with a shot to the stick Malsa and then tied (1-1) with a genius of Bardhi. The Macedonian wanted to offer a tutorial to those present about his specialty, the direct free kick: ball at grass level, the barrier that with his jump opens his way to the goal and draws. Easy. Although the difficult thing is to make it look like it when in reality it is not and Bardhi he got it.
From then on those of Paco Lopez they regained command of the game and scored again before the break. When it hurts the most. Malsa took advantage of a gift from Vilarrasa in defense that allowed him to dribble and solve before Robert for the 1-2 with which the teams went to the changing rooms.
Life and options to the end
Already in the second part, the I raised quickly increased his income with a goal of Coke (1-3) after collecting the rejection of a great stop of Robert. Land in the middle that put the whole granota but that was of little use for tranquility because the Valladolid, who shook his eleven with several changes, cut distances five minutes later with the newly entered Weissman. This is what this new cup format offers, emotion in every drink.
But if someone for Pucela had hope, Morales was in charge of stealing it by converting a clear penalty from Alcaraz with which he put the final 2-4 on the scoreboard.
In this way, the I raised continues his way in Copa and without stopping dreaming. He is three games away from playing a final. Impossible not to get excited.
