Marbella FC Returns to Home Ground
Marbella FC returned to their field this Sunday after a month without playing at home to face a CD Estepona that has reacted and was only one point away in the ranking. The football atmosphere was excellent on the Marbella field with the best attendance of the season.
First Half of the Match
The first half of the match was marked by mutual respect between the two teams, who were very conservative, without clear goal actions for either team. The most clear opportunities – one for each team – came after defensive mistakes. The visiting team was the first to warn in a quick attack action that did not put Lejárraga in trouble. Minutes later, Dago responded with a header, after a lateral foul, which was centered and easy for Razak.
Second Half of the Match
In the second half, Marbella sought a reaction and coach Fran Beltrán introduced a movement in the team by withdrawing Ale Hernández to introduce Marco Tulio in the middle. Estepona faced the restart of the match with a little more intensity in the first ten minutes, which allowed them to step into the area with danger in three actions that ended with dangerous shots but without a goal.
Final Moments of the Match
The equality was maintained in the final stretch of the match but without clear goal opportunities for either of the two teams. Estepona tried it with a couple of distant shots that did not disturb Lejárraga and Marbella with centers to the area without shots. The match ended with excitement and points distribution between Marbella and Estepona, which allows the Marbella team to stay in playoff positions and maintain the goal-average won against a direct rival like Estepona.
