Fuentes and Jacobo, the goalscoring couple who support Córdoba CF

With seven targets on his account – 30% of Córdoba’s total goals -, Adrian Fuentes He established himself as the top green and white scorer who left a more than noticeable impact on the Cordoba team during the current journey. Although he is currently going through a four-game spell without scoring, Fuentes is one of the second division’s elite strikers as he is the ninth top scorer of the category. Furthermore, if we compare his first nineteen games with Tarazona, the team where he played last season, he also scored seven goals.

Adrián Fuentes and the value of his goals for Córdoba CF

Initially expected to play a secondary role in a forward line intended to revolve around Sergi Guardiola, Fuentes ended up taking charge of the attack as the goals progressed. In total, the Madrid player participated in eighteen meetings and has accumulated 1,089 minutes. Despite his lack of experience in professional football, the former Tarazona player was able to withstand the pressure and became a key part of the Córdoba project.

In this sense, without its objectivesthe team led by Iván Ania would have stopped adding six of the current twenty-six points. In this scenario, the green and white team would move from eleventh to twentieth position and remain immersed in the relegation places with twenty units.

Jacobo’s contribution in the offensive field

With four targets Through eighteen matches, Jacobo follows in Fuentes’ footsteps as the second highest scorer on Blanquiverdes’ scoring list. Precisely, his goals have always served to open the scoring in four different matches -Sporting (2-1), Castellón (2-1), Almería (1-1) and Mirandés (1-2)-.

The exceptional connection between Carracedo and Fuentes
