Rafael Escobar’s Debut with UD San Pedro Ends in Defeat
Rafael Escobar’s debut as the coach of UD San Pedro did not go as planned. The team suffered a heavy defeat at the hands of Alhaurín de la Torre. The match, which took place at Los Manantiales, saw the red and black team concede four goals in a ten-minute nightmare. Despite the loss, San Pedro remains second in the league table, but their lead over the fourth-placed team has been reduced to just one point.
San Pedro’s Ten-Minute Nightmare
San Pedro’s visit to Alhaurín de la Torre ended in a crushing defeat for the red and black team. The match marked Rafael Escobar’s debut as San Pedro’s coach. The starting lineup included Reina, Lucas Olmos, Dani Lavela, Pepe del Río, Adri Ruiz, Jesús Díaz, Elías, Víctor, Pablo Ortega, Sumaila, and Andrés del Río. The first half of the match was intense but lacked notable goal opportunities. Neither team managed to put the opposing goalkeeper under pressure, and the first half ended goalless.
Second Half: A Series of Unfortunate Events for San Pedro
The second half started with a clear goal opportunity for the visitors. Sumaila attempted a double goal opportunity but failed to find the net. The first attempt was blocked by the goalkeeper, and the second, although the goalkeeper was out of position, went wide. This was just the beginning of San Pedro’s downfall. In the 52nd minute, Álvaro Vergara scored the first goal of the match. Just two minutes later, Amaro caught Reina off guard and scored from the center of the field. The match was effectively over at this point.
San Pedro’s Punishment Continues
However, San Pedro’s punishment was far from over. In the 57th minute, Comitre scored the third goal following a free kick. The ten-minute nightmare for San Pedro culminated in the 61st minute when Adri Jarauta scored the final goal from the penalty spot, making the score 4-0. San Pedro tried to salvage some pride, but their efforts were in vain. They were closer to conceding a fifth goal than scoring one themselves.
Looking Ahead: San Pedro’s Next Match
San Pedro needs to quickly forget this week’s defeat and focus on their next match against Atarfe Industrial. Despite the loss, San Pedro remains second in the league table, but their lead over the fourth-placed team has been reduced to just one point.
