Incidents
Match corresponding to the third day of LaLiga SmartBank football that was played at the Cartagonova stadium in Cartagena before 7,990 spectators.
Efesé, who repeated the eleven that their coach, Luis Carrión, had in the match won 2-3 in Huesca with the only variation of the Swede Isak Jansson instead of David Ferreiro, dominated from the start and also reached the area with danger tomorrow, with a great opportunity for De Blasis in the 13th minute. The talented Argentine player ran into his compatriot Cristian Álvarezwho beat him heads up in an action started by Jansson and continued by Alfredo Ortuño and ultimately by De Blasis.
With Jansson recovering balls and projecting himself with danger in attack, the black and whites were being superior but without transferring that feeling to the scoreboard and as the minutes passed Zaragoza shook off that harassment and finished the first half better.
Marc Martinez, in fact, had to intervene to a distant shot from Sergio Bermejo and two attempts by Giuliano Simeone, a Chilean and a placed shot.
After the break, neither of the two teams submitted the opponent and few remarkable things happened on the pitch -if anything, a lateral free kick kicked by De Blasis slightly off and a shot by Giuliano Simeone, the son of Cholo, who was very active, was also out.
Those of Juan Carlos Carcedo did not feel very threatened by a Cartagena that was too flat and much less vertical than usual and who lost Sergio Tejera to injury 18 minutes after taking the field.
in 79 Jaume Grau was expelled seeing the second yellow card for a foul on Borja Valle and that made the Aragonese remain in numerical inferiority.
Just three minutes later, a cross from Iván was controlled inside the area by De Blasis and, masterfully, the one from La Plata seated Alejandro Francés To immediately beat Cristian Álvarez accurately with an accurate shot in a confused action in which a hand was claimed, but the goal went up on the scoreboard.
Juanjo Narváez wanted to equalize on the next play, but his shot went wide and in the 88th minute it was the black and white team that was left without cash when they saw Damián Musto the direct red cardVAR through, for a slap at Giuliuano Simeone.
The absurd lack of the Argentine midfielder gave rise to a shot from the edge of the field that Gaizka Larrazabal did not take advantage when sending the ball over the crossbarbut in the ten against ten and with eight minutes of added time the match was far from over and Marc Martínez, well placed, prevented the Whites from leveling already in 97.
