Tenerife 2:0 Leganes: Match Result

Match report

Tenerife beat Leganés 2:0 in the Segunda Division regular season on Sunday at the Estadio Heliodoro Rodríguez López. The result moved the hosts up to fourth place on ten points, while Leganés dropped to twelfth with eight points after five games. The score was decided by two penalties, both taken by Enric Gallego, and neither side had a red card to alter the flow of the game. Gallego opened the scoring in the twenty-fifth minute after a penalty was given following a VAR review that cancelled an earlier call in his favour. He added a second in the seventy-fourth minute before being substituted in the seventy-eighth minute. Alejandro San Cristóbal Sánchez received a yellow card in the fifteenth minute and was replaced at half-time, while David Rodríguez Ramos and Dani Fernández were booked later in the second half. Leganés controlled possession with 58 per cent but created nothing from open play. They registered five shots on target and two on target, while their expected goals figure sat at 0.55. Tenerife, by contrast, had 42 per cent of the ball, but their 1.67 expected goals and three big chances created tell a different story. The visitors drew a lot of crosses — eighteen in total — but only four landed with any success. And here's the thing, the away side had more attacks, 110 to 83, but most of them came without purpose. The hosts made 24 clearances and won 18 aerial duels, matching their opponents in both categories. Leganés attempted 44 long passes and completed 25, while Tenerife completed 45 out of 72. The difference was in the final third: Tenerife had five key passes and three corners, Leganés had seven key passes but only four corners. We had tipped a home win before kick-off, 43 per cent confidence, and the match confirmed that reading. Leganés had not lost in any of their last five meetings with Tenerife — two draws, three wins — but this time the visitors could not find a way past a side that knew exactly how to protect a narrow lead. The old head of Gallego settled them down when the game tightened, and by then the result was beyond doubt. The win leaves Tenerife four points clear of the drop zone and one behind the teams above them. Leganés sit two points off the relegation play-offs, but the gap closes quickly if they do not start winning games they should. The stadium fell silent after the second penalty, and no amount of possession changed that fact.>
