Córdoba did not have the dream start to their return to the Second Division five years later. The green and white team, led by Iván Ania, returned to a similar start to last year. Good feelings little by little, but without positive results. Still, there are some green shoots that invite us to think that the team will improve. Among the fans there is a certain optimism and also more pessimistic sectors. At this point is Córdoba. In full uncertainty about a project that has not yet proven to be the right one. A situation very similar to last season in the First Federation, with many doubts about the squad.
After the first four days, the team occupies the relegation zone with only two points in its locker. That long-awaited victory has not yet been achieved to give the team confidence and a respite so that the players do not suffer that pressure. The same thing happened last season in the First Federation. Córdoba collected 3 points out of the first 12. It should be noted that the objectives are very different. In Primera RFEF, Córdoba had to occupy the promotion positions while in the silver category the objective focuses on permanence.
In the First Federation, the team suffered three defeats in the first four matchdays. They only won against Real Murcia on the second matchday, the first away. They lost to a direct rival like Ibiza in their league debut, they fell painfully against San Fernando in their field and missed three points against Linares in a game that dominated the match, but was not effective. A carbon copy of some games already played this season such as the one against Mirandés or the one against Malaga. In addition, this bad start hampered him when it came to obtaining a direct promotion in the last part of the season.
Already seen
A turning point for the green and white team was this fifth day in which the team had to visit El Collao del Alcoyano. A solitary goal from Diarra on a set piece This gave them the first green and white victory of the season. It was a respite for the team after a poor start. Two weeks later, they stumbled again against Algeciras but went on a huge winning streak that saw them climb the standings to become one of the strongest rivals in the category. A turning point for the green and white project, which they are looking to repeat this year.
A year later, in the Second Division, the beginnings are similar. Two draws and two defeats that start only 2 points out of 12 possible. They lost to Mirandés by the minimum in their silverware debut and fell resoundingly against Elche at the Martínez Valero. At least he managed to score against Burgos and with Malaga. In the two games he has played at El Arcángel this season. Always at the same point, with the urgent need for a victory to dispel possible doubts and so that the team can face the following games of the campaign with more confidence if possible.
This year, this week, the team is once again facing that turning point that is the match against Deportivo. The fifth day will see two recently promoted teams face off that must win to impose themselves in the category. For Iván Ania’s boys, it is a golden opportunityplaying El Arcángel again. They need the three points and this first victory to consolidate the good feelings with which the team arrives from the match against Malaga. The only thing missing was the goal, but the team left good feelings in play, with a proposal similar to last season.
