Granero Leads the Ball in the Last Match Against Cádiz’s B Team
In the last match against Cádiz’s B team, Granero was seen leading the ball. This Sunday, Marbella FC is set to host Cádiz Mirandilla, marking the second match for the B team from Cádiz on Marbella’s home turf. The previous face-off between the two teams took place in November 2020 and ended in a goalless draw.
Previous Encounters and Suspensions Due to Covid-19
The teams had also been in the same group in the season prior to their last encounter. However, the regular league was suspended due to Covid-19, preventing Cádiz’s visit to Marbella. This Sunday, Cádiz B will be playing for the second time on Marbella’s home ground. The team from Cádiz had previously been in Group IV with Marbella FC twice, but the 2019/20 season match was not held.
Impact of the Coronavirus Pandemic on the 2019/20 Season
The coronavirus pandemic led to the premature suspension of the 2019/20 season, and the match between Marbella and Cádiz B, which was supposed to take place on matchday 35 at Lorenzo Cuevas, never happened. Therefore, there is only one previous instance where both teams faced each other on Marbella’s home turf. In the following season, 2020/21, Marbella hosted Cádiz’s B team in the first round, and the match ended in a goalless draw.
Marbella’s Encounters with Cádiz’s First Team
Not long ago, Marbella faced Cádiz’s first team. The Marbella team has played against Cádiz’s first team in three seasons. In these campaigns, Marbella remained undefeated when playing as the home team at Lorenzo Cuevas. In the 2015/16 season, the match between Marbella and Cádiz ended in a 1-1 draw, with Marcos Ruiz scoring for Marbella. A year earlier, the result was the same, but Marbella’s goal was scored by Añón.
Marbella’s Historic Victory Over Cádiz’s First Team
In the 2008/09 season, Marbella achieved its only victory in history over Cádiz’s first team, winning 2-1. Santi Moreno was the hero of that match, scoring both winning goals. However, things did not go as well when Marbella had to visit Ramón de Carranza. In the 2015/16 and 2014/15 seasons, Marbella was defeated 3-0 and 5-0, respectively. In their first visit to Cádiz’s home ground, the match ended in a 3-3 draw, with Santi Moreno once again playing the hero, scoring two goals. The other goal in that match was scored by forward Pedro.
