The Royal Society of San Sebastian sits on the Europa Leagueand is one point away from the Champions League after defeating Mallorca 0-2 this Wednesday in the pending match of the twenty-first day of the Spanish LaLiga Santander with goals from David Silva in the first half and Mikel Merino in the second.
The Imanol Alguacil group always controlled the actions and took into account Merino to his great figure. The Navarrese player set up the first goal and scored the second to sign his team’s 12th victory, the fifth as a visitor of the season.
Mallorca tried, but was not successful in the final metres. The third defeat in a row, fourth in his field, prevents him from moving away from the red zone of the table.
The Basque team tried to monopolize possession of the ball, as Luis García Plaza had already warned – tonight in the stands due to suspension – and patiently sought the way to hurt the vermillions in the first few minutes without a clear dominator.
La Real could not impose their game and Mallorca, with Pedro Rostoll on the bench, tried with the bands well outlined where Maffeo and Oliván deepened, but in both cases, without danger, some in both goals.
La Real faced the clash with eight casualties in their ranks which forced Imanol Alguacil to line up Gorosabel, who already played against Osasuna, and Jon Pacheco on the wings accompanying Le Normand and Ariz.
Mallorca came out with two changes compared to last day against Valencia -Amath and Oliván replaced Ángel and Costa- and looked for the goal with the skill of the Japanese Take Kubo and the aerial power of the Kosovar Vedat Muriqi with his 1.94 meter height. height.
The Gipuzkoan team found a huge hallway at minute 35 that Mikel Merino and David Silva took full advantage of; the Navarrese filtered an extraordinary pass and the canary, with his usual mastery, turned it into the first goal of the game and his own personal score this season.
Mallorca was touched. Despite the fact that he reached the rival area well, with the speed of Take and Amath Ndiayé -Ángel’s substitute- he was unable to hit the last pass. The Kosovar Vedat Muriqi, well controlled, missed several passes. He duel of giants who starred with Alexander Sorloth, 1.95 meters tall, was favorable to the Norwegian in the first part.
He Mallorca came out determined to look for the tie at the restart. He had it Kubo (min. 54), but he hit him incorrectly with Remiro fallen on the ground and unable to intervene. Mikel Merino did not fail shortly after to score the second goal by taking advantage of a loose ball in the area, which as the game was, seemed definitive.
It was a blow that ended up placating the enthusiasm in the stands and the faith of the local players, who were able to concede a third goal, after the omnipresent Mikel Merino smashed a ball into the crossbar (min. 66). La Real controlled the actions well in the final stretch and prevented Mallorca from getting into the game with a goal.
Triumph calmer than anticipated for the people from San Sebastian, who regain a place in the Europa League and aim fully for the Champions League. And a blow to the vermillions in their aspirations to get away from the relegation zone.
