A demanding afternoon of football at Campo Municipal Jose Manuel Pesudo. CD Almazora beat CD L’Alcora 1-0 in a hard-fought La Plana derby, where defensive discipline and a clinical moment decided the game.
The albinegros took to the pitch with the idea of imposing the rhythm from the start. The high press disrupted the opposition and the team found space out wide. After a well-worked move, the ball reached the box and an accurate finish made it 1-0 — the eventual winner.
In the second half L’Alcora threw everything at finding the equaliser and forced the team to suffer. Nacho Mingol signed off a couple of decisive saves, and the defence, led by Marc Abad and Daniel Tena, dealt with everything that came into the area.
Three important points that bring calm to the dressing room after an uneven start to the season. Next up: travel to Nou Jove Castelló on matchday 10.
