Deportivo extended his triumphant streak, this time at the expense of UD Las Palmas (2-1), and with the 18 points he has added in six games since Fernando Vázquez's arrival on the bench, he not only approaches permanence, but even begins to dream of recovering the goal with which the season began, to finish among the top six classified and fight for promotion.

With more than 27,000 fans in Riazor, with work, defense and with the goals of the Basque players Sabin Merino , who scored for the fourth consecutive day, and Eneko Vault , Deportivo confirmed that he is back, that the collapsed team is behind a month and a half was seen with a foot and a half in Second B, and now sees life with other eyes.

The two teams faced the match in opposite dynamics and Las Palmas, who had linked six games (five in the league) without winning, bet on Riazor for the same system as Deportivo, which reached the upside clash after five straight wins.

Pepe Mel , whistled on his return to Riazor when his name was heard by public address system, played with a line of five and Deportivo touched up the scheme a little on the left wing, with Mollejo more as an end than as a lane.

The Canarian team felt comfortable at the start of the match and disturbed Deportivo, but he forgave him. Tana tested Dani Giménez with a shot from the front that stopped the goalkeeper in two stages and the former Rubén Castro did not define twice clear, one to Srnic center when he had everything in his favor to score.

The Deportivo, with the luck of face, did not have clemency. Mollejo and Çolak forced a hand of Eric Curbelo at 18 minutes and that foul made it into Aketxe goal, with a measured center, and Sabin Merino, who finished off in the first suit. The Basque striker has converted almost everything he has touched since his debut as blue and white. Go to goal per game.

The both reassured the Blue and Whites and Mel again put his own in the encounter with a change of players and system, with the entry of the Colombian Narváez by Eric Curbelo and the scheme 4-2-3-1. Before the break, the Uruguayan Mauricio Lemos forced Dani Giménez to fly to get the ball out of a squad.

Las Palmas monopolized the ball in the second half, Pedri made sense of his game in the three-quarter line and Dani Giménez had to respond again to a distant shot from Tana (m.62).

Deportivo waited and counterattacked, but without success. Sabin Merino could not transform an appearance of Gaku Shibasaki (m.64) and the Japanese did not have precision seconds later.

Las Palmas took the revenge of the first period and found the draw with a goal in Somma's own goal when he tried to clear the ball in the area.

The Canarian team settled for a draw, halted the game after matching the score and received the penalty when there were sixteen minutes left with a collective play by Deportivo that ended with a header from Eneko Vault, free of mark, on the second stick to center Víctor Mollejo from the baseline.

Las Palmas again took possession of the ball and the Deportivo, folded, defended himself to maintain the advantage and add his sixth consecutive victory, which takes him away from the relegation positions and even allows him to dream.
