Everyone was warned, because in the first round Real Jaén , a modest Third, had stripped the shame of Deportivo Alavés . The other 15 First teams in liza surpassed, with more or less difficulties, that initial tie, but this weekend overshadowed by the Supercup awaited another trap to overcome. And in it, without waiting for it, fell Getafe, one of the revelation teams of the League, of notable European transit, eliminated by an opponent who struggles to avoid the descent to Third.

Badalona was the copera tomb of the Bordalás team, conditioned from the half hour of the match by the expulsion by two yellows of David Timor . The numerical superiority provided a golden opportunity to the Catalan team and, although it cost him, he was able to take advantage of it to give the bell. Chema Moreno set the first stone five at the end and Hugo Esteban culminated the miracle in the discount with a lack of direct pitch that embedded Chichizola inside the goal.

"I'm not surprised, these things have happened before, but I think the expulsion has been unfair," complained Bordalás , who also stressed that "the field factor" - the Badalona plays on artificial turf - had been noticed in the development of encounter, disputed by a good handful of blue-headlines -Angel, Maksimovic, Cucurella, Djené ...- mixed by less common players.

Yesterday, finally, was a day to remember in Badalona, ​​the only team that yesterday - at the close of this edition - was able to eliminate a First. Celta, Sevilla, Eibar, Levante, Real Sociedad and Espanyol must today overcome the threat. There were, of course, four Second B teams that accounted for Second rivals. Ebro, Ibiza, Cultural Leonesa, Badajoz eliminated - respectively - Ponferradina, Albacete, Huesca and Las Palmas to access the third round, in which Barcelona, ​​Valencia, Real Madrid and Atlético will already enter Liza after their tour of Saudi Arabia.

There was also yesterday who did not offer even the slightest margin for surprise. Athletic, Betis and Leganés solved their commitments with loose goals that immediately snatched hope from Sestao River, Portugalete and Real Murcia.

Quite more suffered Osasuna and Mallorca. The Navarrese team played a bad game in Haro and bordered the elimination for some minutes. In fact, the Rioja team went ahead on the scoreboard. Nacho Vidal tied the race near the end and Chimy Ávila , always he, avoided the extension in the discount. Mallorca, meanwhile, scored in the 26th minute and thereafter lived on the razor's edge until the final whistle.
