The Eagles have already risen, but Group 13 of the Third Federation can still celebrate a promotion. The ‘play-off’ will start this Sunday with the matches Racing Murcia-La Unión (11.30 am) and Pulpileño-Lorca Deportiva (6.30 pm). Two round trips with the winner progressing to the nationwide phase. Four teams dream of success and LA VERDAD has spoken with the four coaches: José Luis Acciari (Lorca Deportiva), Manolo Palomeque (La Unión), Jorge Perona (Racing Murcia) and Juanjo Asensio (Pulpileño). A privileged view to meet the applicants. Disgusted He changed coaches and with Accari on the bench he reached second place. “I think it’s the most dangerous team in the play-off because of the field factor and because they would go through in a draw,” warns Juanjo Asensio, who also considers Lorca to be “a whole chameleon team.” Jorge Perona, in turn, emphasizes the influence of the Argentine coach: «He changed his philosophy. They have people at the top with a lot of speed on the outside with Cellou or Bermejo. They tend to retreat to kill you on the contras”. Palomeque also points to the Guinean winger and adds other names to take into account: “He has Titi, who has been in a higher category. Albertiko played also for Real Murcia, captain Serrano…» Manolo PalomequeJorge PeronaJuanjo AsensioJosé Luis Acciari The experience Third was La Unión de Palomeque, an expert team like their coach and that fought for first place during the season «It has a very good and extensive selection, with excellent players from the Third Division. He is very complete in all his lines,” says Acciari. Asensio confirms: “After Águilas, it is the team with the largest selection. David Valdeolivas has 15 goals, but the Pulpileño coach stays with the team: “It is the team that has the most trade. It fits little.” And it is that Palomeque’s are the least beaten team of the four. Perona analyzes it: “He has height and players who have already had many playoffs. Their central defenders and pivots are strong and tall. He is comfortable in a lower mid block and usually takes advantage of his opportunities. A young team Another team that, like La Unión, came to compete with the Águilas for first place for part of the season, was Racing Murcia. “It is the third year that I participate in the ‘playoff’. It is a young and dynamic team. The coach has the base of Archena from last season,” explains Acciari. Asensio agrees: “I would like to highlight his confidence, of the four teams, he is the one with the lowest average age. It is important because of the freshness of are footballers now that a large number of matches have already been collected. But not everything is youth, as Palomeque points out: “It has players who know the category well. They have an experienced goalkeeper like Emilio, Julio Algar has experience and Antonio also gives him that seniority. He has made a good mix with kids like the full-backs, Hamza, Freire… » From less to more In the end, it was Atlético Pulpileño who remained at stake with last place, a goal that he finally achieved with Juanjo Asensio. “With him, the team grew and entered the playoffs, with a very good last part of the season,” admits Acciari, who also emphasizes his strength from set pieces. Perona shares the same opinion: «They are characterized because of their line of defence, which is very strong and very conspicuous. The players behind have three or four goals. Get achievements from set pieces. He also has a lot of speed on the counterattack with Toualy, Esteban or Wilson Cuero ». Palomeque allows other players to follow like Juanjo’s and focuses on the very young: “They provide that speed and energy that is so necessary in football.”
