The two teams faced the match in opposite dynamics and Las Palmas, who had linked six games (five in the league) without winning, bet in Riazor for the same system as Deportivo, which reached the upside clash after five straight wins.
Pepe Mel, whistled on his return to Riazor when his name was heard by megaphone, he played with a line of five and Deportivo tweaked the scheme a bit on the left wing, with Mollejo more like an end than a lane.
The Canarian team felt comfortable at the start of the game and worried Deportivo, but he was forgiven. Tana tried Dani Gimnez with a shot from the front that cut the goalkeeper and former goalie Rubn Castro twice in two clear terms, one to Srnic's center when he had everything in his favor to score.
The Deportivo, with the luck of face, did not have clemency. Mollejo and olak forced a hand of Eric Curbelo at 18 minutes and that foul made it into Aketxe goal, with a measured center, and Sabin Merino, who finished off in the first suit. The Basque striker has converted almost everything he has touched since his debut as blue and white. Go to goal per game.
Both calmed the blue and Whites and Mel again put his own in the encounter with a change of players and system, with the entry of Colombian Narvez by Eric Curbelo and the scheme 4-2-3-1. Before the break, the Uruguayan Mauricio Lemos forced Dani Gimnez to fly to get the ball out of a squad.
Las Palmas monopolized the ball in the second half, Pedri made sense of his game in the three-quarter line and Dani Gimnez had to respond again to a distant shot from Tana (m.62).
Deportivo expected and counterattack, but without success. Sabin Merino could not transform an appearance of Gaku Shibasaki (m.64) and the Japanese did not have precision seconds later.
