No points and many doubts in the return of Elche to Real Sociedad

The match against Real society It was by no means the premiere dreamed of by him Elche in the Martinez Valero. The locals fell deservedly against a team, the Basque, who took advantage of the opposing errors and knew how to correct their own well with a great Mikel
Merino in command of operations.

The beginnings were never easy

After five years of absence in the First Division, perhaps the Elche another kind of return had been drawn in his imagination. Calmer. And it is that during the first 20 minutes, Edgar
Badía He was the one who sustained the team and, until the defense of five managed to avoid errors in the ball exit, the people of Elche did not begin to enjoy the elite.

Who did not see anything altered went to David
Silva. In his first tenure as txuri-urdin, the canary did what he has been doing all his career: giving away candy. Among others, he gave one of the good ones to Isak but the Swedish striker did not adjust enough on the clearest occasion of the first half.

He also had his Elche, already more coupled to the rhythm of the game. It was of Josan, who took advantage of a serious error by the Basque defense to connect the shot to a center from the left. Remiro He then took out a foot that is worth points. It would not be the last.

Merino got away with it and Januzaj sentenced

After passing through the changing rooms, the Real He kept going to the fountain until, finally, the pitcher fell. First tried it Mikel
Merino upside down, but Badía He took out a hand on the last centimeter of goal. And if he couldn't as a finisher, Merino He tried it as an assistant and this time, yes, he got his way. Put a ball to For your so that the ‘7’ could hit the mark and overtake the Real with all deservedness.

Then Remiro he sustained the Basque joy with another superb stop. Pere Milla, to pass ChildHe was already celebrating the goal when the goalkeeper responded this time with a “very opportune” hand. Advantage for the minimum and to continue, they should have thought about the Royal Society because the Basques did not lower the piston and soon sought the sentence.

It came from eleven meters, with Januzaj as a victim and later as an executioner. The Belgian was fouled inside the area – debatable because of its fragility – and the Belgian was the one who made it a goal with a manual shot: strong and corner.

And with the result so decanted, at the Elche He had no choice but to demonstrate the gallantry that has brought him back to Primera. A decision that led him to leave many spaces to which the Real could not say no. Robert
Lopez, with a good right to the squad, rounded the score and finished drawing the smile that looks to the Real in this beginning of the League in which he does not know defeat.
