Victoria, Laguna, Unami, Ebro and Mollerussa dream of a First Night

Victoria-Villarreal

Riazor is preparing tonight to experience a great football party. But the protagonist will not be Deportivo, but Victoria, a modest club from A Coruña that will play the most important match in its 78-year history. A neighborhood team that has earned the right to fight face to face with Villarreal, current champions of the Europa League, in this first round of the Copa del Rey.

Everything has been crazy in recent weeks for the herculine team. Of the tranquility with which his life unfolds in the Autonomous Preferential, classified in half a table and thinking about the permanence and what could come, to the vertigo of receiving one of the coconuts of the tournament. The tie against Hernani changed everything and the draw put the icing on the cake.

The illusion of Victoria collides with the need of Villarreal. The Submarine does not finish starting in the League and assumes that the road to return to Europe will be much shorter in qualifying rounds than with the regularity of the day to day. Emery has already warned that they are serious about the Cup. There will be rotations to oxygenate those who accumulate more minutes, but Pau, Iborra, Moi Gómez and Alcácer will come out being aware of what is at stake. In front, a group of footballers who will play the match of their life. With the green of Riazor as the setting, it will be an unforgettable night for Victoria and its players, all of them, with a few exceptions, hardened in regional categories. Yes indeed, Pigueiras will go out with his eleven of gala without complexes after booking men last weekend. All in search of prolonging sleep.

Solidary. Victoria wanted all modest football in A Coruña to be a participant in their party, with Tickets at five euros for members of the city’s clubs. In addition, the duel will have a solidarity and A Row 0 will be set up for the XXII Moncho Rivera Memorial, allocating the proceeds to the Economic Kitchen.

Laguna-Granada

CD Laguna debuts in the Cup against Granada in a historic match for the humble Canarian team. Heliodoro Rodríguez López will host the party of one of the ten category teams regional survivors in this round cup. The Laguna arrives at the appointment after eliminating the Jaraiz (4-1) in the interterritorial phase and faces the clash with the illusion of a rookie who will face a set five categories above. But it is already known that in football there are no impossibilities, and that is what the team of Sergio Alonso.

A Robert Moreno is also aware of this that in the previous one he warned: “The only thing this round of the Cup can give you is scares.” Thus, he will line up an eleven in which he will give entry to the less common along with reinforcements from the subsidiary. Neither will the Nasrid coach be able to make too many rotations, who has six casualties due to injury (Germán, Duarte, Víctor Díaz, Rochina, Machís and Isma Ruiz). However, rIt recovers to a Mile that could have minutes after a month away from the fields. Aarón, the substitute goalkeeper, will start and with him homegrown players such as Pepe and Butzke.

Unami-Alavés

Historic day for the Segovian Unami welcoming an entire Alavés de Primera. There have been few days to prepare an event of these characteristics for an entity with few personnel and a lot of volunteers, taking time away from their jobs and families: lighting, security, accreditations, press box, television advice, tent rental, protocol authorities, ticket offices and porters, ambulances, private security … In the background, managers are counting the minutes so that, whatever happens, they arrive at 9:00 p.m. Luckily the city council has spent 10,000 euros to resolve the issue of light. With 38 years of history, the team of the city of the Aqueduct has always lived in the shadow of the reference club in the city: the Gimnástica Segoviana. The important thing for the Castilians is the league, in Preferential, the sixth category. Only on two occasions, seasons 2013-14 and 14-15, did he reach the military in Third. They come from winning at home to Tardelcuende in Soria. Alavés displaces five of the subsidiary and there is no headline, there will be minutes for the less usual.

Ebro-Celta

The lights of La Romareda will point tonight to Denis Suárez. The playmaker is back in the eye of the hurricane after the family Mouriño He will use social networks in the last hours to attack the Salcedense. The club wants him out, Coudet is counting on him. The dressing room supports the teammate, the directive dynamites his image. Civil war escalates when it comes the battle of the Ebro.

Quite the opposite happens on the other side. Zaragoza, and more specifically the neighborhood of La Almozara, breathe illusion. The Chemistry area will look for the formula to activate the celestial bomb. In Vigo the disaster of a year ago in Ibiza is still present, something to which the modest team of Second Federation clings.

Coudet travels with the only absence of Aspas, that she saw her third child born yesterday. The descent of the celestial star will not be a sufficient excuse. Celta need to win to put out all the internal fires that are active.

Mollerussa-Getafe

Getafe’s playoffs against lower-level teams in the Cup have been complicated in recent years and this season Quique already warns that they want to move on in this competition, but they are very clear about what the objective is. Being penultimate, it is not necessary to explain much more.

Although it goes for all, the technician will rotate and test the quarry. The proper name will be Darío Poveda. The player has had several opportunities in LaLiga, but in the cup competition comes a good option to claim goals. Lefty from class and fighting, it will be the greatest danger for the Mollerussa.

Along with him will be the footballers who have played the least so far and will have their chance against an amateur rival who should not cause any problems. Even the Azulón subsidiary is in a higher category than the Catalan team, which plays in the First Catalan. Quique will not be able to count on the injured Jankto and Vitolo to visit the Municipal de Mollerussa, which will register a full house.

Mollerussa is very excited to host a First Division team and although the league is not going well, they dream of surprising the Cup.
