The Blanquiazules Maintain Their Invincible Streak After Victory Against Pontevedra CF
CD Tenerife achieved their third consecutive win in the Primera Federación on Sunday, defeating Pontevedra CF 2-0 at the Estadio Municipal de Pasarón. The blanquiazules dominated most of the match, securing all three points thanks to goals from Jesús de Miguel in the first half and Landazuri in the second.
Match Overview
The first significant chance of the match came from Pontevedra CF, with former player Dani Selma dribbling past Dani Martín in the 11th minute. However, his shot was cleared off the line by David Rodríguez. The first notable attack from Tenerife followed in the 25th minute when Alassan headed the ball into Marqueta’s hands, although the effort was ruled out for a previous foul.
Pressure from Tenerife intensified in the following minutes. In the 30th minute, Jesús de Miguel received a well-timed pass from Alassan within the box, taking a close-range shot that found the back of the net, making it 1-0 and marking his fourth goal in three games. This lead instilled confidence in CD Tenerife, which maintained control for the remainder of the first half, heading into the break with a 1-0 advantage.
Second Half Action
In the second half, it was the home team that created the first danger, as Yelko Pino shot from the edge of the area in the 46th minute, forcing a solid save from Dani Martín. Following this, the match entered a phase with minimal scoring opportunities, prompting both managers to make substitutions to invigorate their attacks.
One of the substitutions for Tenerife, Noel López, had a chance to score the second goal in the 70th minute, but his header went wide. Shortly afterward, from a corner, a precise cross from Nacho Gil found Landazuri unmarked in the area, who tapped the ball into the net for Tenerife’s second goal, securing a 2-0 lead in the 76th minute.
Final Moments
In the closing stages of the match, Pontevedra attempted to close the gap, and during stoppage time, Tiago forced a magnificent save from Dani Martín to prevent a goal for the Galician side. The referee then blew the final whistle, confirming another victory for CD Tenerife in the Primera Federación.
With this win, the blanquiazules have amassed nine points in the league table, remaining top of Group 1 with seven goals scored and none conceded. The team, managed by Álvaro Cervera, continues to hold their unbeaten status after three rounds of competition.
