Las Palmas promised them very happy yesterday when, as soon as the match resumed after the break, Fabio Silva scored a wonderful goal after a beautiful assist from Januzaj. It seemed that, this time, the Gran Canaria team reacted to be able to achieve its first victory of the course. Nothing could be further from the truth. In the end, more salt in a wound that won’t stop bleeding: 3-1 defeat at Villarreal, just three points in eight games, no win, last place in the standings…
Among so much misfortune last night they saw, at least, some green shoots. Still insufficient, they could well serve as a handle for Las Palmas to wake up. One of the main unknowns was in the goal. Not by its occupant, who would evidently be Dinko Horkas not because of Cillessen’s injury, but because of the Croatian goalkeeper’s own response in his first minutes with the UD shirt in an official match. He himself ran over Pepé, thus committing a penalty that was not even worth discussing, stopping said maximum sentence to Álex Baena. He also offered several saves of great merit, such as that saving hand from Sergi Cardona’s shot, former of UD itself.
For its part, yesterday there was also a special debut for Januzaj, in this case as a starter with the Las Palmas shirt, almost always attached to the right wing, thus being able to bring out that left-footed boot that he had worn very little in recent years. If he first offered you the aforementioned assistance to Fabio Silva, then he launched a cannon shot that hit the crossbar of Diego Conde’s goal, who followed with his gaze a ball that was impossible to reach due to the placement and power of the shot. Founded by effort and competitive ambition, He gave his place on the field to Enzo Loiodice in the 77th minute.
The Portuguese striker was also seen smiling in La Cerámica Fabio Silva, who is confirmed as the main alternative in the axis of his team’s attack even though yesterday they shared tasks with McBurnie, who except for a great headbutt that Conde took, little was known about him. The Scottish giant is losing steam. Silva scored an elegant goal yesterday, his first with his new team, chipping the ball over Conde after a spectacular oriented control after the assistance of Januzaj, who sent him a blown kiss with the outside of his left foot. For now, Las Palmas still has something to hold on to.
