Kike García and Budimir decide
Two First-class teams have fallen today, but Osasuna it is not one of them and will be in the draw tomorrow. But let no one think that Deportivo has made it easy for them. The Galician team and their fans showed that they want to return to the place they should never have left: the elite of Spanish football. They competed face to face and sent for many minutes, but they ended up paying for the effort made.
“Psychological goal”, that’s what a goal like the one signed by Kike García just before the break is often called. And the truth is that, as a result of the manchego’s target, Borja Jiménez’s cast failed to match his performances in the first half. Some timid shot that Sergio Herrera solved and little else.
Arrasate revolutionized the game with the changes and managed to print the rhythm he wanted, but It was one of the headlines, Ante Budimir, who ended up tipping the balance for those of Iruña. Kike García shot, Mackay rejected and the Croatian, with an empty goal, ended the dream of the Riazor team.
