CD Tenerife 2- Racing de Santander 1 Game notes

This was one of those games to remember. It was vital for the team to win and they did. They were convincing and played well together as a group. After a mistake early on Hector played the game of his life. Roman managed to score again and more fans around me took back what they had said about him earlier in the season. He obviously needs a lot of time to adapt to a team as it took him half a season to adapt to Espanyol last year.
Monday is training and from there the coach will decide who is going straight on to Barcelona. A point from the Catalans would be great but as they are in their own battle for the league title I won't hold my breath. The game is on Tuesday at 7pm and I hope all those going especially those from Armada Sur have a great time.
