Amorebiata keeps the dream of permanence alive at the expense of Ferrol

Amorebieta defeated Racing de Ferrol in Lezama 3-1 and thus cemented the dream of permanence that was almost a chimera more than a month ago while suppressing the illusion of reaching the ‘playoff’ zone where it reached the Galician team in Lezama.

Two goals from Félix Garreta and Josué Dorrio in the first half and another from Iker Unzueta from the penalty spot in the second sealed Biscayan’s victory over Cristóbal Parralo’s team, pushing into the final period and creating some excitement with the goal of Iker Garcia.

With this score, Amorebieta equals Alcorcón’s 34 points, which marks safety, although the ‘average’ is lost in the Madrid team that closes the day visiting Espanyol on Monday.

The first half was clear blue with Amorebieta more plugged in than his rival. Jandro Castro’s men imposed their demands and they did so with courage and quality as evidenced by Félix Garreta’s 1-0 score shortly after the first quarter of an hour had passed.

The central defender completed as many as four brilliant actions in the textbook counterattack that put the Biscayans ahead. He recovered the ball in the defensive zone, broke the forward with his heel, crossed the field and after a feint that disarmed the opposition defense, collected the final cross from Álvaro Núñez to beat Ander Cantero in cold blood . Extraordinary.

The advantage strengthened Amorebieta and a heavy blow for Racing de Ferrol who had no idea or dynamism to find cracks in the spider web set by the blues who continued what they were doing and in the 33rd they made a new blow to one more efficient collective action.

This time, Jauregi received a ball that was filtered by Lasure with his back and the lack of strength of the Ferrol defense left the ball in the boots of Dorrio who was surprised to come quickly from the second line of attack to beat Ander Cantero with a hard shot on the post. .

With that 2-0 reflecting clear Biscayan superiority, the second half began which Jandro’s team controlled with solvency from the start, ensuring that almost nothing of note happened.

The entrance of Sabin Merino sparked the match. The Athletic youth player gave his first warning with a volley that rose in the 67th minute and in the 72nd minute he curled a fine header into Sergio Cubero’s centre.

The naval team increased the pressure in the 78th minute with a shot from the sideline by Manu Justo that flashed past Jonmi Magunazelaia. But with Racing pressing the most, the score was 3-0 with a penalty converted by Iker Unzueta after a clear handball from Sabin Merino, the star of both sides.

At 3-0 in the 81st minute the match seemed doomed, but Amorebieta still had to sweat to earn three golden points. Jon García first made it 3-1 with a fine header from a corner taken by Heber Pena and in the final stretch Cubero missed a clear chance in the 87th minute and in the 93rd minute in between by Jonmi, bringing it back to life, and Félix gets a corner off a venomous Álvaro Giménez shot.
