Molina Sport receives the historic Espanya with the need to win

He Molina Sport faces the fifth date of the Elite League calendar with the aim of recovering the leadership lost last week against Caja Rural CPLV in Valladolid, as soon as possible.

To do this, the first step of the comeback is to beat a historic national line hockey player, the Spain Hoquei Club Palma that arrives on the Island as fifth classified after a hesitant start in which the Balearic Islands have achieved two victories, a draw and a defeat.

The clash will take place tomorrow, Saturday (8:00 p.m.), at the Carlos García San Román Sports Center.

Spain is the second highest scoring team in the Elite League at the beginning of the season, counting among his offensive references with Molina’s own former player, Josep Tomàs, Andreu’s brother, who has accumulated five goals so far this season, the same as the Canadian Brandon David James. Along with them, also Canadian Patrick Vulgan and Álvaro Pons complete the offensive poker of the Balearic Islands, with four goals each.

For its part, Molina Sport, despite its setback in Valladolid, remains as the most lethal team in attack, with 32 goals scored, in addition to being the third least scored team in the championship with 12 conceded.

Chuck Baldwin, Edu Cabalin and Kevin Mooney, with six goals each, are the main reference for the current champion and second place in the Elite League.

The president of the island team refuses to make excuses for last weekend’s defeat against Caja Rural CPLV, although he recognizes that “the trip to Valladolid was quite hard, because we flew to Madrid, spent the night there and traveled by car on the day of the game. , so the players could not rest.” “The idea was to return at the end of the game to sleep in Madrid, having to leave early for Gran Canaria the next day.”

In sports, Alejandro Molina highlighted that “Valladolid proposed a defensive system that went well, that we did not expect and that we are not used to playing against, they were very serious when playing defense and that made it difficult for us to enter the zone and have good shots and good passes to finish.”

“We have lost and perhaps we were due to lose now,” reflects the president, who states that “perhaps it is good for us to have lost this match, because they are one of our direct rivals for the title and when we face them again we will know what “What awaits us, so we can train a tactic to be able to break that defense.”

Molina remembers that “it has been 38 Elite League games for us to lose again, since November 27, 2021 when we lost in the last second against Tres Cantos.” “Of the last 54 games we have played we have lost only three,” recalls the manager.
