The Academy prospects returned to winning ways in style, producing a dominant display and settling the contest before half-time with a commanding 3-0 lead
UD Almería 'B' returned to winning ways with a convincing 4-0 victory over Atlético Porcuna CF on Matchday 4. Following last weekend’s defeat away to San Pedro, Pablo Nozal’s side responded with an emphatic performance in which they controlled the game from start to finish.
The match quickly became a one-sided affair, with UD Almería 'B' superior in every department. By half-time, the score was already 3-0, although the hosts could have added further goals given the number of chances they created.
The UD Almería Academy prospects made the perfect start, taking the lead in the second minute. The early goal set the tone for the afternoon as the home side dominated possession, moved the ball with confidence and caused constant problems down the right flank, where Pablo proved particularly influential.
Two assists from Pablo led to further goals for UD Almería 'B'. Josema doubled the advantage in the 15th minute before Marciano made it 3-0 in the 32nd minute following an outstanding move down the right.
Marciano also came close to adding another goal, setting up opportunities for both himself and Joan as UD Almería 'B' continued to threaten. The teams went into the interval with the hosts firmly in control at 3-0.
Atlético Porcuna CF needed a strong response after the break and initially pushed forward, applying pressure and showing greater intensity. However, their attacking threat produced more pressure than clear-cut chances.
Any hopes of a comeback were ended in the 65th minute when substitute Viktor made an immediate impact, scoring UD Almería 'B''s 4th goal after a rebound inside the box.
From that point onwards, UD Almería 'B' regained complete control. The hosts circulated the ball patiently, looking for further openings while managing the game and seeing out a comfortable victory.
The final whistle confirmed a comprehensive 4-0 victory for UD Almería 'B', who returned to winning ways with an impressive all-round performance.
