The defense takes care of the goal

The Cádiz defense is taking care of the team’s goal. Of the seven goals that the people of Cádiz have scored in the eight games that have been played, three belong to the rear, two to the midfielders and another two to the forwards. Figures that confirm the fair distribution of goals. Last season at this same point Cádiz had one more goal and the distribution was very different: one goal from the defense, four from the midfielders, two from the forwards and one from an own goal.

Therefore, this course behind is the highest scoring line at the moment. Espino, the player most used by Cervera, has two. The Uruguayan opened his account against Levante in the 97th minute to rescue a point on the first day and his second goal came during Cádiz’s visit to Vigo, after collecting the rejection of the penalty missed by Salvi. The third goal of the defense was the work of Haroyan, in the defeat of the yellows in Vallecas by 3-1. The number of goals from the defense at this point is significant. During the past season this line only marked six so many (three from Cala, two from Marcos Mauro and one from Akapo) and with only eight matches played, he has already half.

Assists, from midfielders

Something that this start of the season has shown is that assists in Cádiz are provided by the midfielders. Of the seven goals that have been scored so far, three went after pass and all came from a midfielder. Alarcón, Jonsson and Salvi, were the architects of these goal assists. Those of Alarcón (vs Celta) and Jonsson (vs Rayo), came from set pieces; while Salvi’s (vs Osasuna) was in play. Last season the leader in assists was Negredo, with four.
