The mini-derby that monopolized the spotlight for the first confrontation on the benches between Fernando Torres and Raúl González It ended with a point of disappointment, since the tie did not satisfy either of them. He Atlético B (fourth draw at home and sixth game without winning at home), with much more potential and with the objective of fighting for the top positions, would not be able to draw blood from the bad moment of the Castile. While those of Raul they still fail to achieve longed for victory that allows you to start climbing positions and escape relegation.

Even though Niño would overtake the rojiblancos midway through the first half, Torres’ men would give the ball to a Castilla team that, despite having a weak first half, would manage to achieve a good combination for Gonzalo put the tables on the brink of half-time.

Exchange of occasions

In the second half, both could winerring Niño and Omar Janneh two clear chances in the area and finding themselves Boñar with a stop of Fran Gonzalez. Something similar to what happened to a much more in tune Castilla, who first forgave with Gonzalo and would later crash in the two major interventions of Iturbe in view of Yáñez and Víctor Muñoz.

Hence everything led to a draw, the fourth consecutive for Atlético B in a Cerro in which they have not won any of their six games, which would lead to the departure of Fernando Torres to the locker room without greeting a Raul Gonzalez with whom, yes, he had spoken before the derbYo.

We came for the three points and we could have gotten them. Not losing in a derby is good, but I’m not happy because the three of us wanted to
