Match

Ceuta march on in the cup

Valencia are out and Ceuta go through, 2‑1 the final word. The bracket opens up a little, and everyone allows themselves a look at it.

Match

Ceuta win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 121th minute. Valencia will replay every second of the added time for a week.

The dugout

Jordi Escobar says Ceuta went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Player ratings

Vintage Salvi Sánchez — 8.32

At 35 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 8.32, and nobody on the pitch better.

Squad

Adrián Lapeña in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Ceuta this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Lucas Belezi wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Ceuta know it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Omar Sadik

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

Both jobs done by José Matos — 7.38

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 12 actions, 7.38, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

The terraces

Ceuta supporters have found a favourite in Omar Sadik

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Omar Sadik has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Squad

Redru breaks a bone — 64 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 64 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Match

Marc Domènech settles it late for Ceuta

The 87th minute, half the ground already edging towards the exits, and Marc Domènech decided nobody was going anywhere. Málaga had no time left to answer.

Player ratings

Marc Domènech, 19, steals the show — 8.15

Marked 8.15 at 19, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Market

Capa hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Ceuta can pretend not to have heard.

Match

Ceuta cannot stop winning

3 wins on the spin now, and the question has changed from whether the run ends to who ends it. Confidence like this cannot be bought; it has to be earned exactly this way.

Match

Ceuta find a way past Málaga

Málaga made Ceuta work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

The terraces

Ceuta supporters have found a favourite in Omar Sadik

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Omar Sadik has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

The dugout

No hiding place for Guillermo Vallejo

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Guillermo Vallejo, and the manager let it.

Squad

Álex Petxarromán falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

In brief
