Despite the pessimism surrounding the level of Córdoba after the defeat in the Copa del Rey, the match against Olot also left small positive notes. Among them, the emergence of Jude Soonsup-Bell. The Englishman made his debut as a starter for the green and white team and scored his first goal. In addition, he continued to create danger in the rival area. Not without errors that need to be improved. In any case, the big gamble of the sports management during the last winter market begins to give a glimpse of its potential. He could start to get more minutes in the Second Division.
For now, this has surprised the green and white coach Iván Ania who, after the match in Olot, highlighted that Jude is “one of those who came out of the match the most strengthened, not only because of the goal but because of all the danger he represented.” generated.” The Englishman opened the scoring and even more goals could have been scored. He had a great opportunity, cwith heel assist from Xavi Sintes in the zone, which he sent high. His duty is to complete games that he will have to refine little by little to be able to perform as well against a Second Division team. He is gradually adapting to the team and could perform well.
Additionally, he made history with Córdoba by becoming the first English player to score in the green and white jersey. Despite being a rival from the Second Federation, Jude carried the team’s attack and took the opportunity to gain the trust of Iván Ania. He was the only one to do it because the other substitutes left almost nothing positive for Olot. His objective will not automatically lead him to be a starter the day after with Almería, but he could count on minutes since he has not played in the Hypermotion League since the duel with Albacete, almost a month ago. Four days later he was able to contribute again.
He arrived with a lot of promise last summer. A signature guided by Big Data. Coming from the English training center of Tottenham, he ventures into his first experience outside his city with only 19 years old. He didn’t get opportunities because his level was lower than the rest of his teammates as there was a significant gap between the affiliated competition he came from and the Second Division, which this year has a high level.
Iván Ania said of him that “he has cold blood in the regionquality in command and who has a lot of future, he is a player who can combine, as a winger he always arrives in the area, because he has the ambition of an attacker. “He is also a tall, slender, fast player with a good physique.” All these virtues were not seen in the championship because Jude barely played 40 minutes in two months of competition. So far, he has played as a winger in the few appearances he has made and has been dangerous on the right wing.
He will have a hard time overthrowing the current holder on the right wing, Cristian Carracedo. The Catalan is at a high level at the start of the season and has so far been irreplaceable for Iván Ania. However, Jude could get more minutes with Almería as a reward for his good minutes against Olot. The language barrier This remains an obstacle to communicating with the Asturian coach and understanding what he wants. However, since his arrival at the club, he has learned Spanish to adapt as quickly as possible to his new life.
His time in Cordoba, although short, has already had its ups and downs. The exotic nature of his signing aroused the interest of green and white supporters and the sports management had hopes in him. However, Jude’s beginnings With Blanquiverde in the league he left bad feelings and the fans had the idea of seeing him in the Copa del Rey. His opportunity presented itself and he took advantage of it to gain confidence.
