Footballers deceive the referee, they try to cheat, even if the VAR monitors, they try to troll their rivals. And trilear them too, under which cup is the ball? There is only one exception: cramps. A stiff soccer player falls with his leg stretched out and friends and rivals appear to remedy the ailment, as if all the players in the world were volunteers for cramps without borders. One operates, the others surround the fallen man and the nurse, arms on hips, and observe the maneuver. Then they return to trolling, trilling, cheating or starring if possible.

Also in Nuevo Mirandilla there were cramps due to the effort and the incipient Cádiz heat. And the time, which is not time for football in the Tacita de Plata, or anywhere, that the soup for Sunday lunch remains cold. And there were also trolling or stellar performances, like every game. And deceptions.

But above all there were disappointments, because a draw is a neither for you nor for me, who is only happy on the last day when it serves to satisfy the needs of both parties. And it was not the case. Of course, there are also degrees of disappointments, and if Cádiz’s is much higher on the Richter scale, Mallorca’s can be considered mild. Nothing like the one in the Cup final, which did collapse buildings. Now that they have returned to the mud, and abandoned the Carthusian tinsel, for Aguirre, with his spring pants and matching shoes, the point achieved in Cádiz is also a turning point after two negative days, although it also has that point of disappointment, for What could have been and was not.

Because Mallorca took the lead, as they usually do when they win, in the first minutes, and also allowed themselves to tie as they usually do, when it seems like nothing is happening and they control everything. Muriqi scored before the first quarter of an hour with a header that ripped the net, after looking behind Fali, after a ball that Valjent crossed to him. And Cádiz tied, after many minutes without anything happening, because Mallorca exerted its majority of blocking, in a center from Sergi Guardiola, in which Chris Ramos was the ham in the sandwich between the visiting centre-backs, but the one who accidentally finished off It was Mascarell in his own goal.

But Cádiz, to whom the tie sounded more like disappointment, because it was of almost no use to them to get out of being poor, did not react to the bugle call that marked the goal, except for a shot by Guardiola that took splinters off the post, and that It was a reveille for Mallorca, who completely woke up. Aguirre put Darder on the field, to organize the mat, and Morlanes, and between the two they covered any waterway that Pellegrino’s men could take advantage of, who also made changes, but they were not as effective.

Cádiz returned to the harsh reality of their match, and in a bizarre play in which Fali did not understand his goalkeeper, whom he beat with a header, Mallorca was able to score, although Chust acted as a firefighter. Then, in the final minutes, the best Mallorcan opportunity came, when Morlanes acted as a shell player, where is the ball? He cheated three people from Cádiz and scored a goal ball for Darder, who, since he is not a center forward, doubted the resolution. In the end he shot with his toe, Conan brushed the ball, which crashed into the post. Mallorca’s disappointment came with that play.

The one from Cádiz, capital letter, after a couple of missions by the cramps without borders volunteers, when Rajkovic went out to put up the Christmas lighting, without realizing that it is April, and was left hanging from the stairs. The ball went to Roger, and his shot, the last one, went a hand’s breadth from the goal, which was not empty, because four men in red appeared to guard it.

There is no one to remedy Cadista disappointment; that of Mallorca is more acceptable.
