Espanyol returned to training on Wednesday after a day of rest after the painful KO against Elche, with their sights set on the Cup.
The team of Vicente Moreno will face Mallorca on Saturday at the Visit Estadi, a tough exam where parrots will fight for a ticket to the Cup quarter-finals. But the rival is not an expert in sweet and the duel comes with ‘morbid’ by the precedents of piques of the past year among which were the ‘cockerels’ of Second.
Espanyolismo hopes that the cup match in Mallorca will be synonymous with a joy in the form of a pass to the next round and also very important, a way to redeem himself after the terrible game against Elche. The locker room trusts that the KO Monday is just an accident and that the team recovers the good streak with which it closed 2021, winning at Mestalla.
For the date, drink in Mallorca, Vicente Moreno hopes to recover some players who did not act on Monday in the League. In the case of Diego López and Darder, despite not having been confirmed, if they are recovering from Covid, it is unknown whether or not they will arrive at the appointment on Saturday. A priori, the contest of both is complicated.
But the headline under sticks, in principle, it would be Joan García, who had been chosen for the KO tournament.
