All the facilities that the
Royal Society
finds in the League turn into difficulties in Europe.
And there is no apparent reason for that to happen, but while in the domestic championship the wins are becoming customary, in the Europa League scoring a single goal is a huge effort.
And so, the same team that adds 21 goals in just 10 league games, overcomes the fourth day of continental competition with a meager record of two goals in its favor.
A duality that is very difficult to understand, given that
Imanol Alguacil's
lineups
do not prioritize one competition over the other.
La Real had beaten AZ and Rijeka by the minimum, while they had lost against Napoli, also 1-0.
This is how he arrived at his visit to Alkmaar this Thursday, in which neither one team nor the other managed to score a single goal, and from where Real did not know whether to leave happy or not.
Because she enjoyed the control of the ball, she almost always gave a greater sense of danger and was even penalized by the referee in the absence of VAR.
But AZ, a team much better than prejudices about the Dutch league suggest, crashed a ball off the crossbar, forced two huge saves from
Remiro
, blew a very clear one close to discount ...
Anyone, in short, could take the victory and none did, which leads to a diabolical group for the last two days of these league phase.
Napoli now lead him with nine points after their victory against the already eliminated Rijeka (a match marked by the memory of Maradona) and behind are Real and AZ tied at seven points.
The advantage for the Donostiarras is that this tie benefits them if it persists at the end of the league.
Granada and Villarreal, one step away
Simpler are the accounts for the other two Spanish teams that are contesting the competition, although neither of them is yet classified.
El
Granada
, after winning Thursday at Omonia Nicosia (2-1) with goals from
Luis Suarez and Soro
, reaffirmed as leader of his group.
Adding a point next week against PSV in Los Cármenes would be enough to qualify, most likely first in the group.
The
Villarreal
, meanwhile.
he was confident of returning from Israel with qualification in his pocket, but will have to wait at least one more week to tie his pass to the round of 32.
With a team full of regular substitutes in the League, Emery's men could not get past the draw against Maccabi Tel Aviv (1-1).
He took the lead through
Álex Baena
, but
Pesic
set the final score in the second half.
Next Thursday Villarreal will visit Sivasspor and it will be enough to add a point to tie the pass.
