UDG Tenerife won the III Cordial Women’s Soccer Tournament after equalizing an adverse 0-2 and winning 4-3 in a vibrant penalty shootout. Lanzarote’s Ainhoa and Clau Blanco signed the goals for a blue and white team that is advancing steadily in its summer preparation.
José Herrera’s team is taking shape and very good feelings. Yesterday he passed a demanding test against a team that will play the previous phase of the Champions League, Scottish Celtic FC, whom he beat after recovering from an adverse 0-2 loss with 15 minutes to go. The goals from Ainhoa and Clau Blanco gave way to an exciting penalty shootout in which the blue and white team won 4-3 and thus won the Cordial Women’s Football International Tournament played in Arguineguín, Gran Canaria.
After several approaches in both areas in the early stages, Paula put Celtic ahead in a counterattack after 11 minutes. Shortly before, Koko Ange had the option of putting Tenerife ahead in an individual play and when he turned twenty, Moreno had the option of equalizing with a shot from outside the area.
The two teams alternated control of the ball and as the minutes passed it was UDG Tenerife that took control, but without the desired luck in the final meters. Paula scored a second goal in a more than doubtful position before half an hour was up, a circumstance that did not intimidate the islanders, who were very focused on continuing with their plan.
Bea Beltrán tried from the top of the area 5 minutes from the break, but Logan avoided the 1-2. Once the game resumed, UDG Tenerife came out determined for the match, looking for the goal through the speed and impetus of Ainhoa, scorer on Friday in the match against Femarguín.
The striker from Lanzarote saw the goal again, closing the gap with the head when 73 minutes had still elapsed. On the next play, Sandra came close to equalizing with a right-footed shot from outside the area, a goal that did come in a great collective play with great definition from Clau Blanco after an assist from Bea Beltrán from the side. A superb reaction to equalize in just three minutes. And there was still the final stretch under a clear dominance of UDG Tenerife, but the result did not change and the penalty shootout decided the winner of the tournament.
The summer gimp traveled to Tenerife thanks to Granadilla’s better effectiveness from eleven meters, with the signing of Natalia Ramos, Agus Barroso, Bea Beltrán and Sandra, as well as an inspired Noelia Ramos, who saved two maximum penalties. Next test, Athletic on the occasion of the Teide Trophy in Los Cuartos, next Saturday at 8:00 p.m.
