The CFS Dianense Rte. Mena senior male suffered a blunt and unfair 14-5 defeat in his visit to Novelda against Racing "B".
As usual, the preferential team had in its ranks a majority of players who also play in the Third Division. Despite this, the dianenses played a great game and stood up, but had no fortune in front of goal and conceded several rebound goals.
The game started with a goal from Antonio. Minutes later the locals tied the game after a two against one well finished. The Mengual were still making their game based on taking the ball played while the Novelda were limited to look for long balls on each kick. The dianenses returned to advance in the marker with a goal of Lunar, but just after the referee whistled penalty and expelled Antonio to touch the ball with hands under the goal. This goal diminished those of Dénia, who immediately afterwards conceded two rebound goals. With 4-2, Luis had a chance at the far post but the ball did not enter. On the next play the locals achieved the fifth. Mengual asked for time and raised the spirits of his players, who went out to the track wanting to get back into the game. Jordi managed the 5-3 and had the fourth in his boots, but the local goalkeeper stopped him twice. With 5-3 came to rest.
In the resumption, the locals returned to achieve a goal of rebound and in the following play Pedro trimmed distances. These were the best minutes of the dianenses, who with 6-4, had up to three clear chances against the local goalkeeper, but they were not able to materialize them. Racing managed the seventh after a great play, and the eighth after another bounce. Ruiz cut distances, but the dianenses, who had started with three changes, accused the expulsion of Antonio and later the injury of the goalkeeper and Jordi, who had to finish the game touched the knee.
In the final moments, the locals were achieving goals against a team that fought as much as I can and that remained stuck in the match although it had many adversities.
