Excellent result and an excellent headed goal! It really should have been more, but it's a good win nonetheless!
Cheers, Duds.

After a very even opening half hour the game settled mainly into our favour. Although mainly in terms of possession and pattern of play, we created a few half chances whilst they only had one effort with any real venom in the game. To sum up the approach of the kids there was an incident after about thirty five minutes. The ball was played long into our box and as the defender headed it out. I thought he could have let that go through to the keeper as there was no striker in the box. Why not? Because three of their team were stood waiting 25 yards out for the ball to drop so they could volley it towards goal in glory. Needless to say it got blocked! Half time and 0-0, playing simultaneously Marbella were drawing 1-1. As the game wore on there was only one side really looking to go for it. You could see the mental focus of the ‘kids’ slipping and they were slightly slower into challenges. The last ten minutes saw us pressuring their goal and their keeper pulled off two incredible stops. The last one in the video I still can’t believe he managed it. Final score 0-0. Marbella managed a late late winner to move top. In the late game Jaén could also only manage a goalless draw but this took them top again. We are third, two points behind the other two, who play each other next week. We are away to Almeria B in the final match of the first half. This also means that the last game of the season will be Marbella vs Jaén! Could be interesting…

Another good performance, by the sound of it, Duds. Obviously a pity not to gain all three points, but our fave side down your way remains well in contention!

Surprisingly frost and snow are not causing fixture chaos down here… The final game of this half of the season sees us away to Almería B who have been at this level for four seasons now. Each season they have made the playoffs but lost out last season in the final stage…getting out via the playoffs is rather complicated! They started the season well but have lost four of the last five but that includes three of the top four, let’s hope that run continues today!

Been a little slow with this half of the season! Partly because I missed our first home game of the year to fly back to the U.K. for my mum’s 80th birthday party! First game back was an overseas tour to Morocco to take on Melilla. A comfortable 0-2 victory made sure we brought the three points back to the mainland! And kept pressure on the others around us. Our first home game of the year was, by all accounts (my colleagues!), a highly attritional affair where we missed a penalty, saved one and then scored a scrappy late goal! Roll on to the first of two potentially season defining games… A six point haul so far had kept us in touch with Real Jaén, who lost at fourth placed Torre del Mar and Marbella who also won their first two after Christmas. Match week three saw Torre del Mar travel to Marbella and ourselves travel to Real Jaén
