Albert Ferrer compareció en sala de prensa tras la sesión de entrenamiento matinal en la Ciudad Deportiva del Córdoca CF.
Sobre su vuelta a Tenerife destacó que “jugué allí seis meses, donde jugamos eliminatorias de permanencia con el Deportivo y los recuerdos de la ciudad y el Club son fantásticos”.
I think for many fans although they didn't expect Segunda B to be a wlk in the park they did expect to win a few games without suffering. The first few games in the season seemed to reinforce this and then the rest of the season arrived.
I sat after the game yesterday quietly just appreciating how great the feeling was to have won without suffering without being worried until the last minute what might happen. I have to say it is a great moment for the team to have recovered and I think we will make the playoffs. Theoretically we need one more win to be sure that we are ok. Both would probably move us up the table with a small chance we were second.
Second is an advantage as it gives you in theory a less difficult team and the second leg at home. This second is the factor which would really help us, although I am sure many will travel to see the games where ever we are drawn.
Yesterdays game itself was great for Perona who scored a hat trick with the third being a penalty. The second was a really great goal and all three can be seen below.

INCIDENTS Played in the Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez stadium with the gound in good condition on a sunny morning with 8,895 spectators sone 50 of which were from Oviedo. Before the game the squad from Iberostar Socas Canarias were presented to celebrate their going up to the ACB.
In a game where the CDT doctor was sent off the field for walking to slowly everything happened. The team started out slowly against Toledo who they drew against in the away match. The first shot at goal came in the 30th minute from Perona who has never scored a goal on his birthday.
Toledo never looked likely to score and the only counter attack Tarantino stopped although it cost him a yellow card and a sending off. At this point with two local players Kiko Raton and Ruben Rosquete having been brought in the team made that extra push. And the goal when it finally came was glorious.
The second game this season Pablo Sicilia Roig has saved. We are still third and now with 6 points between us and the fifth placed team

I am not sure why it is every time the game looks easy we struggle and when it is hard the team steps up their game. La Roda came to Tenerife with clear ideas, to defend and try for a point and they managed this very well. CD Tenerife had 15 corners and not a single ball went in but there will always be games like this.Looking forward during the playoffs every team will be looking to win so this sort of play shouldn't happen.
The fans were outstanding and yet again showed up in force to watch and support the team. Almost 11,400 were there to cheer yet again and push the team on.
A point was better than nothing although we are again third after Albacete managed a win in the afternoon and Castilla won at home which moved the gap back to 6 points. That said Lugo drew and Oviedo took a pasting in Gran Canaria.

INCIDENTS
The match was played in the Heliodoro Rodríguez López, with 11.360 spectators. The ground was in good condition and the morning was sunny. Pablo Sicilia, CD Tenerife, captain gave the La Roda captain a comemerative gift, as it was the first time they had visited CD Tenerife to play.
The Spanish have a word "Movido" which leterally translates to mean with movement but can also mean change or excitment. This is how I would have described last weekend.
There were changes in the starting eleven, Kiko wasn't paying and Aridane was starting up front, but just the one forward. Abel from the youth squads was in mid-field for the first time and yet again the team had changed. Calderon has only played the same squad twice this season. They came out on the field and looked good but a lucky play Guerrero scored for Sporting B. CD Tenerife had various chances but the ball didn't go in. Then Juan Muñiz scored a second goal for Sporting B from a free kick. The blue and white players never gave up and tried continually until half time to score.
At half time Tenerife decided to through chance to the wind and took off Medina and Abel bringing on Kiko and Nico. This left Chechu on the right with Kitoko as the only midfielder, the two giants up front and Nico behind them. The goal wasn't far behind and with a Sporting defense mistake Aridane took his chance and put the ball in the net.
The draw came with a penalty against Nico which Perona converted into a goal. But Sporting found an chance and scored their third goal.
The game finished with the fans shouting "Caalderon quit" and shortly after the match Sports manager Pedro Cordero announced that thecaoch had been sacked.
There is talk about the new coach but nothing has been confirmed bythe club
Calderon said goodbye to the players this morning and the new coach is expected this afternoon or tomorrow.

I have a very positive nature and am sure everything will come right soon but the final result yesterday was a great pity. CD Tenerife looked really good yesterday in the first half. They had chances and made the most of them. Not sure about the beginning of the second half, but the team is still third and going into the winter break in play off positions is a good thing.
The fans were very fed up with the final result and there was twice a call for the coach Calderon to go. In his interview afterwards he stated, "We worked hard to secure our position but it didn't work out". when asked about the fans he commented that, "I am pleased that the fans come week after week. I have the management support and consequently will go on training".
The players are off now until after xmas and they then start to train for the game against Alcala de Henares on the 8th of January. It will be interesting to see if we have new players by then.

Played in the Heliodoro. With the grounds in good condition, on a sunny morning in front of 6.441 spectators. CD Tenerife gifted l Marino de Luanco memorial gift to celebrate their first visit here in the Heliodoro.
In one of the better games this season CD Tenerife only managed a draw. 0-0 was the starting and final result in a very balanced game.
CD Tenerife let Atlético de Madrid B (0-0) get away with a draw in a very balanced game. The blue and whites played a good first half and in the second half slightly let their guard down. In the first few minutes Víctor Bravo, Perona, Tacón & Chechu could have scored. The audience were awesome and with almost 9,000 people in the stadium it was the best audience in Segunda B and only two stadiums had better crowds in segunda. Las Plamas wasn't one of them. The first half was even and at the break the result was still 0-0.
Calderón again chose to put Kitoko in central defence something we saw several games last year too. David Medina was therefore in midfield with Marcos.
In the second half Atletico had more chances and Calderón made the fist changes offensively bringing on Kiko Ratón & Nico for Marcos & Chechu.
In the last few minutes the opponents went all out for a win and Aragoneses (71’) saved the ball from a shot by Fer and shortly after, Pedro Martín (73’) put the ball over the bar. CD Tenerife kept on trying and Kiko Raton fought hard as the minutes passed.
The score never changed and CD Tenerife has now played eight games at home without a loss, a position that it is a privilege to be in. There are only three games left of the fist round and next weekend the team are away to a side who are also fighting hard for a play off position.

It is not unusual
for me to blog two days in a row but I was interested in comments
made by the players in the newspaper El Dia and wanted to translate
them.
In interviews
after the game all three players interviewed commented that it was
not great to be whistled at especially at home.
The comments
included:
Chechu - "We
are pleased about the win, which is the most important thing but it
isn't everything. When we reached the 2-0 unconsciously we moved back
to hold the result and this is something we need to correct". He
continued, " We need more control over the ball and if we manage
this we will be able to make the most of our results and enjoy the
games". He then commented that they need to keep working so they
can, "play the whole 90 minutes as we did the first 45".
When he was asked about the whistling in the stadium he answered;
"The whistling makes me cross but that is how the fans show
their unhappiness". He followed up by saying, "What we all
want is to play well, and we go out to try to do this every week. The
club has a lot of fans and the pressure is high but that pressure is
also our advantage".
Ferran
Tacon - The author of the first goal talked about how the team needed
to be more "stable". He then commented on how in the game
against Rayo B they " always put the same amount of effort
but perhaps that was the only game where we played the same
throughout". He then stated that, "It may well be nerves,
we want to maintain the score. We played well in the first half and
it was good to go ahead early and follow up with the second goal".
David
Medina - The central defender saw the difference in the first and
second halves as "two games - In the first half we were
good, we managed to reach the goal area and score two goals, then
there was the second half where we lost the ball and suffered".
He finished, "We know what we are doing right and what is not so
good and we hope to improve. There is still lots of league to play
and with 28 points now we have room to manoeuvre".
If there was ever a game of two halves it was yesterdays game. The first half was great the team were together, played well and moved forward with two outstanding goals. The second especially by Perona was cool headed, he thought carefully before shooting and knocked the ball in goal.
The second half was different, the players came out and were either defending, relaxed or nervous depending on the point of view. Celta B then scored and this made everything worse.
The players are happy with the points that the club has now and 28 points after 14 games is in line for a play off position.
RC CELTA DE VIGO B Matías, Víctor Díaz, Churre, Maceiras (Pillado, 72’), Catú ; Capó (Juanma Torres, 84’), Marcos Torres, Levy, Jota, Jordan & Camochu (Albert, 46’).
REFEREE Alberto Salazar, from Valencia. Red card for visitor Jordan (89’), after he received his second yellow card. Yellow cards for local players Víctor Bravo & David Medina.
GOALS 1-0: (11’) Ferrán Tacón, in a one on one with the keeper. 2-0: (43’) Perona, from a pass by Ferrán Tacón. 2-1: (60’) Albert.
INCIDENTS Played in the Heliodoro Rodriguez Lopez stadium with the grounds in good condition on a sunny morning with 8.198 spectators. One minutes silence was held for Fernando Cova and Francisco Romero Cabrera "Romerito".
There has been talk in the last few weeks about how badly the team is playing. There is no doubt they do not have the elegance of teams like Aresnal or FC Barcelona but four points out of six evey 14 days is not to be dismissed. There is no doubt that the fans, the players and the club would prefer that the team won every game but this is not so easy. CD Tenerife has always struggled away. There was talk on the tenerife forum form Finn Cris that "The problem for me is that the middle guy in the upper midfield trio is almost wasted the way we play". And then about home games "the 'home fortress' aspect is even more significant this season as I image almost all other teams & players rarely get to play in front of close to 10.000 fans & play in a real stadium so they may well feel a bit intimidated out there giving CDT an even bigger advantage at home than normal". Both of these are valid points of view add to which I would say the travel is difficult especially this year where there is little gap between travel and playing. This works both ways and may well account partly for why we have done well at home. I was calculating thare are 19 rounds at home and away. If we manage 4 points per fortnight this is 76 points a result which is not to be sneered at. Pedro Cordero has stated since the pre-season that he is looking for another forward and an attacking midfielder. Both of these if he finds tham should help the team especially towards the end of the season. It would be great to finish first but we need to bear in mind Lugo were first last season and didn't make the play offs. The group we are in seems to be the strongest which is not only an advantage now as we need to play well to reach the points we need but also we can't be matched against the teams in our group in the play off.

Josmar has asked for a transfer, whether on loan or to change clubs he seems not to mind. I hope the player gets the chance to grow either here in Tenerife or perhaps a change of club on loan would be good experience. And one of the other B team players hasn't been to training for a week as he claims he is depressed. I feel sorry for the B coach as it seems to have been an odd week.
