AURELIO RESCUES POINT FOR THADER
Macer / 2010-03-07 10:37:18
We arrived to see the end of Jove's 1st team who lost to Catarroja 1-0. This is why the Thader game was at 1900 and on Saturday as there was a festival on the Sunday.
Now whether it was the time or the day or lack of publicity on the game but there were only two brits there, myself and the fella I travel with. Still the game kicked off on time and once again in the first five mins Thader went ahead. A Sergi cross from the left saw Murta collect and slot past Alex in the home goal. Also as usual, the normally solid Thader defence seemed to relax and a snap shot from Gerrada went just wide.
Almost straight from the goal kick Jove broke down the right and the cross saw Thader’s defence all at sea and Toni was given the easiest of chances to equalise. Thader were pumping long balls up the middle again and lack of ideas up front was again letting them down.
Another long ball into the Thader area and the defence were found wanting again. Coloma tried to save the situation but was unable to get to the ball and Gerrada jabbed in the loose ball and the home side went ahead.
The visitors then had a great chance to draw level. When Angel left in space decided to pass the buck instead of shooting the danger was gone. Now I ask why do players who have been tapped on the ankle go down quicker than my granny on black ice and holding their face! Oh I forgot, and screaming, until the game is stopped. At the half Thader must have been wondering why they were behind, but on balance the home side deserved the lead.
The second period got underway with Jove again looking good on the ball. Thader's defence seemed to have tightened up but they need to start playing as a team. It seems they always falter against teams below them. Murta almost did the trick with an over head shot that hit the bar with Alex stranded.
Jove were still looking sharp but not penetrative. Thader had forgotten about Jave's runs from last week and he was playing too deep. Sergi then came up with a looping header that saw Alex scrambling but he was no doubt glad to see it just go wide. On another day these sort of chances would have nestled in the net.
Now a long throw and the clearance fell to Aurelio on the eighteen yard line who rifled a low shot past Alex to level the score. Although the honours ended even Thader must feel they were unfortunate to only rescue a point in a game they should really have got more from.
Next week home to Albatera in a Sunday morning 11.30 am ko.
Jove Espanol B 2 - 2 Thader
