Las Palmas 4-0 Getafe: The 'Azulones' sink in Gran Canaria

Triumph of Las Palmas against a Getafe that is touched and sunk in Gran Canaria. Goleada team Quique Setien that encarriló the meeting in the first half with goals from Willian José and Viera. He closed with a double Tana choque.En Gran Canaria had the spirits of revenge. The painful 4-0 in the first round still smarting in the whole island. Las Palmas and Getafe were fighting in a duel for permanence. They left with advantage Quique Setien, who left the relegation zone the previous day after his victory over Eibar , and today received a wounded rival, in a crisis of results (with today, now totals seven consecutive defeats )

Comfortable and easy match for Quique Setien although in the first few minutes of meeting, Wakasa had to be replaced by muscle problems. At that time, Las Palmas was already ahead on the scoreboard. They had to create too many chances to open the scoring, the effectiveness of island was up enough for 7 minutes Willian José convened on sunny Gran Canaria Stadium reason.

First notice danger David Garcia began with a cross and ended the Brazilian striker finishing off with left foot. The shock was compounded for Getafe was an attempt to love and I can not. Because the team wanted Fran Escribá struggled to surprise the contrary showing a willingness. He had the ball more than his rival but only with possession is not enough to win a game. The coach decided to revolutionize his starting XI in which included Alvaro Pereira , Uruguay debut today with the Madrid club. A debut to forget as he finished sent off in the second half after receiving his second yellow.

Las Palmas came clearly enough to find the second and in one of those shares, ended up hitting Momo shot in the hand of Lacen inside the area. Clear, indisputable, and Jonathan Viera became a penalty goal. Las Palmas would leave the locker room feeling good, difficult to escape them all three points.

With the resumption, the whole island ruled the crash. Guaita won a dogfight with the defense getafense Zhar but misses the granting clearance and the ball ends. Viera assists Tana for this shoot from the heart of the area to the back of the net. With three goals against and one less player on the pitch, and Fran Escribá changes you could give it another Getafe. Meanwhile, Pio Pio sought the room. El Zhar stroked him with a shot that crashed into the crosshead but it was Tana who would take the prize. Doublet Canary striker who received assistance from Momo at his uncheck. Guaita could do nothing to prevent thrashing.

Getafe implored the final whistle. Not lift his head the team Fran Escribá. The other side of the coin were the players from Las Palmas to those who had left them a game round. New victory that allows them to climb in the standings, ahead of Getafe and equating the "goal average". Everything is to continue next season in the top flight .

The miracle of "Profe" Ortega

"This is hell" says Fernando Torres in a video summarizing the experience of Atletico Madrid in Los Angeles de San Rafael (Segovia), the pre - season destination to charge the batteries. Suddenly, someone crosses the plane and brings a smile to the front. "There 's the culprit!" He exclaims. This is Oscar Ezequiel Ortega River, known as "the Prof" Ortega, trainer of the team that last Saturday at the Bernabeu ran eleven kilometers rival (119 by 108). And that hardly any recovery time between the trip to Eindhoven to play with PSV in the Champions League and Madrid derbi . Simeone's men, for calendar requirements, have had to play four games in ten days. Today finish the marathon at the Calderon against Real Sociedad.
If your battery is not exhausted, largely thanks to the work of the "Profe" Ortega, born in Montevideo 57 years, Penarol fan and lover of his land satiric Murga, cousin of Cadiz chirigota. "Balance, balance ... What happens is that Vietto is more destabilized the dollar in Argentina" with his booming voice blurted the young striker at its first meeting, when he could barely stand on an inflatable disc. A kind of torrential, severe (speech , "I do not want fags, we are Atletico!" ), But also as a loving father ( "Those are my boys. A step champion!" ).

Train another rhythm

According to club sources, for the "Profe" two weeks of concentration in Los Angeles de San Rafael they are sacred , the imperative for the team to play as trains, start blaring. Gym early. At 9:30, career in the golf course between holes 11 and 12. And then recreate the exercises situations that may occur in games , developing aerobic power in both the functional part as neuromuscular, bringing consumption oxygen to the maximum. " It is a hard model to assimilate because it forces train a very high rate , " admits Ortega. "And then there is healthy competition with fellow".
A pique given even in practice games with the template, such as "catch- up " or Rondos, in which none of his boys want to lose. "We are competitive even at that," they confessed in their environment. The demand and encouragement go together. It is also very rigorous for food and rest.Bernabeu's game followed a bathing session and recovery. Training before the match against Real socidad was not yesterday morning at the Ciudad Deportiva de Majadahonda, but in the afternoon at the Calderon.
Ortega admits that became at 21 years 'abroad I am', globetrotter who has taught their lessons in Argentina, Uruguay, Mexico, Colombia, Chile, Japan ... and Spain. He finishes his third round at Atletico. He came Marcos Alonso early in the century and returned with Gregorio Manzano in his first stint as coach when Simeone still wore short. there they met the Cholo and "Profe". Both have now contract with Atletico until 2020.

Tough opponent

Simeone is likely to make some rotation against Real , leading to Gamez by one of the sides and Óliver by Koke or Gabi. Also in the front could have touches: Vietto or Torres Correa. Griezmann, who faces his exequipo seems fixed. Sum 20 goals in all competitions and at the Bernabeu broke its longest losing streak of the season (five games without scoring).
The Royal Society is not easy rival. It takes five straight games without defeat and recovered Illarramendi and Jonathas , essential competition to the Brazilian striker Imanol Agirretxe low predictable. The central Inigo Martinez will miss through suspension.

An outbreak of gastroenteritis leaves Espanyol with seven questions to visit the Betis

RCD Espanyol reported Tuesday the existence of an outbreak of gastroenteritis in the first blanquiazul template that already affects up to seven players who have not been able to train and are in their homes, and they are serious doubt to visit this Thursday Real Betis at the Benito Villamarin, in a league game that is key in the fight to avoid relegation being tied at 28 points.

After Victor Alvarez , who on Monday was the first to show symptoms, Tuesday have been Victor Sanchez , Burgui, Asensio, Hernán Pérez , Gerard Moreno and Abraham who after undergoing revision has been done to them in the Ciudad Deportiva Dani Jarque first thing they had to go home by this outbreak of gastroenteritis.

"The seven have had to return to their homes and have to wait to see how they will react in the coming hours. At about 48 hours to start Thursday's game against Betis, the club will inform you promptly of the evolution of this process" the club said in a statement.

Since the game is like a 'final', being both teams tied at 28 points and 4 points currently descent, if confirmed these seven cases of gastroenteritis and be low affected the technician, Constantin Gâlcă, would have serious problems to make a starting lineup similar to that which is most common.

And, despite the return after enactment of Felipe Caicedo , the coach would be without Gerard Moreno Burgui --autores or three of the goals of victory in Gijon (2-4) - plus without oxygen in the center of Victor Sanchez and field Abraham, without the creative magic of an inspired Marco Asensio without the speed and balance at the end of Hernán Pérez.
