He Córdoba CF returns to work this Wednesday with a session scheduled at 10:30 a.m. on field 2 (small) of the Ciudad Deportiva in which will be the first preparatory practice for the match next Sunday, at the Álvarez Claro, against Melilla (12:00 p.m., FEF TV).
The absences
For this match, Iván Ania will have at least three casualties. The first, by sanction, since Carlos Albarran He saw the fifth yellow card of the cycle during last Saturday’s match, in El Arcángel, against Antequera (3-0), so the Asturian will have to call on Iván Rodríguez to make up for the absence of the Badalona right back, one of his essentials.
In addition to that loss, Córdoba CF will also have three more due to injury. The first, that of Alberto Toril, who suffered a second-degree injury to the internal collateral ligament in El Palmar, which in the first assessments called for January (more until the end) for his return to the playing fields. It seems that the Spaniard is responding well in the first days to the treatment and it is hoped that after the Christmas holidays he will be able to step onto the grass and later be at the disposal of Iván Ania.
For its part, Adrian Castellano He will work separately for the next few days, although he is very close to returning to the pitch and, therefore, rejoining the group again. The Córdoba defender relapsed from his injury to the rectus femoris of his right leg and is now facing the last part of his recovery, although obviously, after what happened a few weeks ago, extreme caution is wanted with him before returning to the group.
Finally there is the case of Alex Sala. The Catalan midfielder is the one with the best prognosis and it would not be ruled out that he could be seen on the pitch today. Otherwise, he will do so in the next few days, this week, so he could return to the competition before the winter break, hence the objective will focus on the match against Castellón or, failing that, on the duel in the Balear stadium, against Atlético Baleares.
November, which is traditionally a hard month as far as nursing is concerned, could be saved in this way with only two tenants, Adri Castellano and Alberto Toril and if there is no setback, they would be the only casualties, foreseeably, for the vital meeting in The Archangel against the leader, the Castellon, next December 9 (8:00 p.m., FEF TV). h
