Espanyol beats Malaga thanks to a nonexistent penalty

The Malaga snapped a losing streak of three straight defeats with a win at Espanyol discussed by a dubious penalty but Romaric , who allegedly played ball with his hand after a release of Jesús Gámez, although the home team deserved a goal more especially in the first half. At first the Espanyol was the scapegoat for Malaga, because in twenty games that have faced the jellyfish won eleven times, seven of them in the Rose Garden, so the choice was the team local, despite the uncertainty and doubt.

Espanyol left no scaring. On the contrary, came out alive, attacking, although not frightened Málaga and in just five minutes a ball deep down the left wing that controls Monreal and takes whatever Rondon, to push the ball into the goal from Cristian Alvarez. The Malaga was another set, pressed, had the ball and the attitude was completely different from those of the other three games. Cazorla, Duda, Isco and Rondon, created many problems to the midfield and defense of the opponent. With spaces, Malaga was far superior.

The Spanish team could not handle the pressure of Malaga and the speed of the bands jellyfish. Rondon, who returned to the ownership, very active, had the second goal, but its launch cleared completely only Cristian Alvarez . It was a monologue and one team on the field. Rondon, after a pass from Duda stays ahead of Cristian Alvarez and senses vaseline the Argentine goalkeeper, whose rejection comes back to the Venezuelan striker fired, but in the same line goal defender Raul Rodriguez , prevented the second goal of the game. The dominance was total, the bands playing without many defensive problems to an Espanyol, could not find the time and place to try to create some time. Coming to rest one on the left side missing the striker took advantage of Alvaro head to beat Caballero a bad location.

The only time the first forty-five minutes took the team led by Mauricio Pochettino , which took a prize, perhaps too good for the game made, but the actions are an important weapon strategy, which give many points. Malaga, shocked, left as in the first half, pressing and moving the ball, while Espanyol, with the draw, had more room for your game to the backlash. A corner kick launched by Cazorla, comb the ball Mathijsen and Demichelis, does not come by mere inches to touch the ball. It was a warning, but Pochettino, noted the difficulties and actions by the right wing of his team and changed the front Weiss Sergio Garcia, who staged a spectacular rally of which the Knight stopped him and shot on the second play Alvaro, launched the post.

The Malaga did not expect these events highlighted by the Espanyol and went for the win. Joaquin had it, but Cristian Alvarez broke up the release with the right leg, and on that same play Gamez, starred in the penalty , because his shot hit by Delgado Ferreiro wizard's hand Romaric, who used to beat the goalkeeper Apoño Argentine of Spanish side. Everything had changed, the sentence could Málaga several times by Joaquin and Rondon and Espanyol went into penalty area obsessively, but could not get the equalizer.
