Atlético's B team stumbles in Algeciras
Atlético B did not have a good weekend, adding to the first team’s draw in Cornellà and the Youth team’s defeat in the derby. The team managed by Fernando Torres was defeated in Algeciras in a match marked by specific errors that prevented them from adding important points in the fight for the promotion playoff places to the Second Division.
Currently, the B team occupies 8th position, just two points from fifth place, which gives access to the dream of promotion. The match was decided in the opening minutes. A penalty in favor of Atlético B in the fourth minute, which Adrián Niño failed to materialize, was a blow to morale.
Shortly after, Algeciras took the lead with a goal from Rodrigo Escudero, after a mistake in the clearance by Kostis. Despite the entry of Rayane, Omar and Jano in the second half, the B team failed to change the course of the match.
Individual errors and difficulties in generating goal opportunities weighed down the team. The intense wind in the Nuevo Mirador also did not facilitate the game. Atlético B, despite the adverse result, continues to fight to reach the playoff places. The rojiblanca fans are confident that the team will manage to reverse the situation and return to winning ways in the next matches.
