David Concha breaks the door of ownership and brings Badajoz closer to the playoff

Badajoz pulled with rage, courage, ambition… and David Concha to certify a comeback (2-1) that was conceived in just ten minutes, with goals from the Cantabrian and Gorka Santamaría, who neutralized Sergio’s initial goal Flames for the Royal Union. The Santander winger completed a very remarkable game beyond his goal. He unblocked when football did not sprout, he offered himself, gave way, provided temper and was a knife for his band. He has plenty of talent that, when aligned with his state of grace and confidence, makes him one of the most differential players in the category. To the practical he joined the plastic, with snails, overflows, dribbles, footsteps, heel strikes and a repertoire of resources that nurtured the people of Badajoz to continue climbing and get closer to the playoff. He left substituted in the 90th applauded and with the stands chanting his name. Concha broke the door of ownership against a Jové who had relegated him to two consecutive substitutions and who has not made him one of his permanent fixtures since his arrival.

It didn’t take long for the winger from Santander to hit his side, who rushed the bottom line after the center kick and sent a pumped ball to the heart of the area that was looking for Gorka’s head. Loss of Real Unión and traced action, Concha entered the left-handed lane, curled up next to him and hung the ball, although Dani Fernández was unable to control it. The former Racing player wanted. In general, Badajoz was dynamic up front, with high pressure, accumulating men and generating superiorities. In five minutes, the irundarras did not even smell the ball. But in the first braided action, away goal. Vertiginous transition that caught something soft behind the people of Badajoz with a bad retreat. The ball reaches Sergio Llamas, who shoots Gonzalo Crettaz completely alone from the edge of the box.

Blow for a black and white team that seemed toned and very involved. The blow slightly lowered the revolutions, but Concha returned to the charge, although his low pass was intercepted from the ground by a visiting defender. A penalty was claimed from the stands for a handball. The Extremadurans tried to recover the initiative and pick up the plot of the game from where it left off before the rival’s goal. But behind him he was nervous and that was beginning to be transferred to the construction. Isi Gómez hardly appeared and without him the field became very long, with a lot of distance between the lines.

The two deliveries marked by Josema and Dani Fernández, raffling off two unnecessary balls, showed a certain short circuit. It was necessary to control, pause and macerate the play. But Badajoz was very predictable in static attack and lacked space against a well-equipped Basque team that left no cracks. Kun and Sergio Llamas were a constant nuisance, with the replacement of Elizondo and Seguín in three quarters of the field, forcing Badajoz to repeat an infuriating windshield wiper.

The locals were nourished by the sparks of Concha, who again overflowed on the left forcing a free kick. Zelu executed with a lot of power and a very closed effect and Pardo was about to equalize the fight in the 31st minute, but the shot was repelled by the post. And the tie came through inertia and insistence. David Concha (who else) picked up a drifting center at the far post that wandered around the rearguard without finding clearance and after a rebound the Cantabrian pushed it at will to put the tables (1-1).

But Badajoz continued to commit the same sins and it is about to cost them to repeat the penance of the genesis of the match. Absurd loss and mandatory foul near the top of the area. Seguín’s shot went past the top corner.

It was a slip that he corrected soon. In minute 43, on the verge of half-time, leaving Real Unión with little room for reaction, the black and whites turned the score around. Zelu slipped when taking a corner and the ball reached the opposite band, from where Josema assisted Gorka Santamaría, who marked the times impeccably in the jump to give the exact parabola to his header, which slipped far from the reach of Irazusta. Twelve goals (just like Quiles, from Deportivo) added the top scorer in group 1 of the First RFEF.

At the start of the second half the tables were turned. It was Real Unión that was unable to find the formula to give fluidity to their football, with many difficulties to get out of their cave. But Badajoz continued to concede behind and that gave life to the visitors, who were about to put Gonzalo in trouble after an erroneous loan from Dani Fernández. It did not happen to adults, but Jové’s team played with fire. Aquino was not right, imprecise and without the usual clairvoyance, although he worked tirelessly to support the retaining wall. Neither he nor Isi Gómez brought out his talent and that diminished the local offensive’s chances of success. Concha lost some of his effervescence, but he returned to star in the most dangerous of the Badajoz until halfway through the second half with a shot that was too crossed that he did not manage to direct between the three sticks. The people of Badajoz contained the isolated attacks from the Irundarras, which were scattered and lacked the capacity to unsettle on a reasonable basis. From then until the end, Badajoz temporized and let the clock run, taking advantage of the oxygen from Adilson and Otegui in midfield.
