Málaga approved and suspended: Peybernes is not Mbappé …

Dani Martin: The posts did the job for him. At the start of the game he left to clear a ball and his delivery, deficit, ended up in the boots of Joaquín Muñoz, who without a goalkeeper crashed the ball into one of the Blue and White goal posts.

Victor Gomez: It was not his match. He suffered in defense with the attacks of Marc Mateu, especially in the first half, and he was seen very little in attack.

Peybernes: Both he and Lombán suffered a lot with Dani Escriche and with Huesca’s second-line arrivals. He was more insecure than in other encounters. He was signaled offside in the action of the disallowed goal against Malaga at the end of the clash.

Lombán: Accuses inactivity. He did not have a comfortable game behind and some cracks were seen. In attack he had two very clear chances in two set pieces. One of them crashed into the left post of Andrés Fernández.

Javi Jiménez: He also had a very demanding match, first with Joaquín Muñoz, which caused him more than one problem, and then with Lombardo. He barely appeared on the offensive side.

Paulino: From less to more, he participated very little in the first half, where Malaga suffered greatly. In the second, he gained presence in the game and Málaga circled the rival area more. He was the one who headed the corner in the controversial play that left Málaga without victory in the 87th minute.

Genaro: José Alberto recovered the double pivot that he already lined up in Pucela, although this time Genaro was less fine. He was overtaken in the first leg of the clash by the local midfielders. At the end of the clash he scored the goal that, according to the rule applied in Mbappé’s goal against Spain nine days ago, should have gone up to the scoreboard.

Escassi: He narrowed as he could in front of the Malaguista defense, but Málaga’s midfield suffered excessively, especially in the first half. In the second half he placed a free kick in the squad, but Andrés Fernández made a brilliant save.

Kevin: He left some glimmer of his quality, but he got very little pay off from his offensive actions. As for defensive work, he once again showed enormous involvement.

Brandon: He stole Andrés Fernández’s wallet, but fell asleep when he had everything going for him. In his line, he did not stop running and harassing the rear of Huesca throughout the match.

Sekou: He was a starter for the first time. He looked somewhat better on a physical level, although he had minutes to spare on the pitch. He won several aerial duels, but failed in the definition on the only occasion he had in the game. It lacks a lot of filming.

Roberto: No time.

Jozabed: No time.

Jairo: No time.
