Bacca heads up in the match against Girona.
Yes of Ramiro Funes Mori He would have depended, now he would probably be in Mexico playing with his brother Rogelio in Monterrey. The Argentine, relegated to a secondary role by the emergence of Pau, is having to settle for the Cup to quench his thirst for minutes. Having fulfilled his wish, stopped by a Villarreal that he was not willing to lose the only replacement for his plants, he would not have been able to track the pass of the yellows to the eighths with a goal that unleashed a match hitherto matched against Girona and which Cazorla and Chukwueze (0-3) finished off.
As usual in Copa, Lane He booked just enough to look for the pass to the eighths, taking out an eleven that could be perfectly starting in the league. In addition, in front there was no longer a Third or Second B rival but a Girona who intends to return to Primera, although the season has been distorted. The team of Pep Lluís Martí, who also gave some headlines a rest, was especially concerned with stopping Villarreal and got it for quite a few minutes, also questioning him a more distributed possession of what could be expected.
The yellow team was the one who most sought the opposite goal but at the break he left with just a clear chance, in a stationary ball action. TO Anguissa He got a header on the second post by centimeters after a Cazorla service from the corner. The Villarreal sought above all to enter through the gangs, where Calleja moved Moi Gómez to the right to leave Ontiveros the left-handed lane, although they would later exchange their positions. The Marbellí starred in a pair of dangerous boarding schools, one of which ended with a shot from Casserole from the front he found no goal for a little.
Girona was just approaching the goal of Andrés Fernández although he had a couple of good options in the first half in distant shots of Gallar, after a mistake by Funes Mori at the exit of the ball, and Brandon, who sent the ball near the ball. squad after turning on the front. The Catalan team took a step forward in the resumption and had a couple of good options to get ahead, in a header from Alcalá and, above all, in a volley of Diamanka, who finished only on the second stick a foul hung to the area but it went up. He forgave Girona and soon regretted, because two just a couple of minutes later he started writing Funes Mori the farewell of the Catalans of the Cup. In a rehearsed action, Pau extended a service from the corner and the Argentine riveted head on the second stick.
By then, Calleja had decided to enter Chukwueze, who was the one who just broke the match. The verticality and imbalance that Ontiveros had lacked, the substitute, was put by the Nigerian, who in his first appearance put a candy to Cazorla in the area. The Spaniard's shot was taken by Juan Carlos with a good hand down. In an action practically traced and with the same protagonists came the second. Cazorla was right this time after covering the defense his first shot. Chukwueze did not want to run out of prize and signed the third after starring in one of his usual skirts. The Nigerian left behind three rivals before beating Juan Carlos and sealing Villarreal's pass to eighths.
