Pere Milla desecrates Cornellà – AS.com

Solo a defeat, against Atlético de Madrid and in the 99th minute, Espanyol had suffered at the RCDE Stadium this season. Only once, in 1966, Elche had been imposed in fiefdom parakeet throughout its history. Blockhouse category that Pere Milla turned into a house of cards to demolish the local joy and to get the franjiverdes out of the descent in the blink of an eye.

Because Milla, from ilerdense and who had finished 2021 scoring at the Camp Nou, He barely needed 14 minutes to make the mess in Cornellà. And doing something as simple as being on your site. Because the whole behind was misplaced, especially Aleix Vidal, in the 0-1, to the center of Tete Morente, while in the second, after Mojica’s pass, for grapes he came out Joan Garcia. The 20-year-old Espanyol youth squad has a great future ahead of him, but it would be better for him to forget as soon as possible his first night in LaLiga, the one that brought him a medical discharge from Diego Lopez.

Well you know Edgar Badia, who a decade ago made his debut at the Perica goal never to repeat himself and who on his return with Elche had almost no job, before a desnortado Espanyol without the baton of Darder. Until the edge of the break, when Gil Manzano, without being denied by Del Cerro Grande in the VAR, saw Penalty in an ostruction with the forearm of Gonzalo Verdú – Last minute headline due to Bigas’ injury in the warm-up – over Keidi Bare. It was transformed by Raúl de Tomás Not being upset. Strength and precision.

Elche kept, all common sense, the necessary patience to endure the arreones of a Espanyol that needed to overcome before the whirring of the stands. And that actually offered little effective danger, beyond a RdT run that obstructed Badia or a few final minutes in which it was more the sensation than the siege of occasions, and that ended with Dani Pendín, Vicente Moreno’s assistant, exhausted on the bench.

Despite following him from a box, sanctioned, he took Francisco, specialist in the RCDE Stadium, a loot more than deserved for an Elche who, curiously, was turning 99 years old. Happy anniversary, bitter return of Espanyol home.
