Córdoba CF maintains its contention with victory. After more than a month without being able to take three points in one day, the green and white ecosystem still cannot find the key to break the lock of rival goals. If you analyze this … period of time without victories, the extreme left has not found an owner and, therefore, someone who brings that touch of creativity and explosiveness into the attack on Cordobasomething that was found little by little in the right sector with Carracedo.
If you compare last year’s team, the wardrobe in each area of the field is much deeperwhich also involves the left-handed sector. After Adilson’s long-term injury, the Riverside board made a strong commitment to strengthening that area of the pitch with the ‘bombshell’ signing of Kevin Medina.
In addition, the transfer of Diego Bri by Atlético de Madrid, a player highly sought after by the green and white entity for many transfer windows. Although it is not its natural position, Dalisson He was also offered the chance to play on the wing.
Little impact from Kevin Medina
Despite the initial good omens, coach Iván Ania failed to find the bite his left winger needed. One of the so-called to be indisputable, it was Kevin Medinabut it failed to achieve the expected performance. Even if his goal against Castellón on the fourth day opened the doors to pleasure four consecutive titles -Andorra, Racing de Santander, Real Sociedad B and Real Zaragoza-, the man from Málaga could not provide the shine that he left intermittently during his last stage with Málaga.
After that, Kevin once again had two opportunities to stand out as a starter against Cieza in the Copa del Rey. As we already know, the match against the Murcia team ended with the elimination of Córdoba from the KO tournament and with the less common players certainly noted after not being able to take advantage of their opportunity against a team from the Third Federation. After this performance, the Cordoba winger added two games without minutes against Almería and Deportivo.
While everything indicated that he would gradually be relegated to a repellent option, given Carracedo’s sanction, the Malaga man had another chance to enter the starting XI against Cadiz. With a mission to show off his dribbling skills, Kevin’s flight was interrupted by the double marking of Cadiz and I couldn’t stand out either. Finally, if we analyze his general figures, Kevin Medina contested 588 minutes in the leaguewhich makes him the fourteenth player in the green and white squad. Concerning his contribution to the team, he only scored one goal, without assists.
A Dalisson out of position
One that may have had more recent importance is Dalissona player who must have experienced in this course the big leap since the Second Federation. The Spanish-Brazilian arrived at El Arcángel with a reputation as a player with a remarkable shot from set pieces, in addition to having a good goalscoring nose when it’s time to score. thirteen goals with Pontevedra.
It should be noted, however, that he signed these documents as midfielder, position in which he could only start against Cadiz – scoring a goal -. The doubts that Kevin Medina and a Jacobo who began to fuel as an interior presented him prostrate in front of a left winger in whom Iván Ania himself recognizes that I can’t prove its worth. “Dalisson is a playmaker, but at the moment, except for a few games, we are not playing with this clear position. He can play inside, which is more natural, but he can also play outside, but It’s not an extreme face-off.“It’s not about overflowing, it’s more about going inside, in a more associative way,” he explained.
After suffering an injury that did not prevent him from adding minutes until the match against Andorra, Dalisson took advantage eight starts in ten games that he played, during which he added 581 minutes with a remarkable offensive performance achieving two goals and two assists.
Diego Bri’s injury and Jacobo’s participation
The one that was much duller from the participation of the previous two players is Diego Bri. Suffering from back pain which prevented him from playing at the start of the season, Elche had to occupy a tertiary role on the left wing, despite being the only player Ania had at his disposal. natural leg.
After adding the remaining minutes, it was hero of equalizer against Malagaa good moment which continued the next day against Deportivo where he forced La Coruna’s own goal. Even though he was starting to emerge, Bri’s growth had to be stunted by a muscle injury that would keep him sidelined until the end. early 2026.
Finally, a slightly more common option over the last five games has been that of Jacoba player who was not at all comfortable in the left sector and where he was not able to give his best as he showed from midfield.
The return of Adilson and the good performance of Carracedo
For all this, more than close return of Adilson early 2026 It is presented as a possible solution for the left, as Ania was able to underline when speaking about her recovery process two weeks ago. “He is a player who must give us a lot, because this against one that he has, We don’t have a player with similar characteristics“, he stressed.
Given the poor situation of the left winger, the dexterous band She was much more prolific when it came to offense. The Carlos Isaac-Carracedo tandem was much more vertical, which meant that a large part of the goals were concentrated on this side. About the role of Cristian CarracedoThe ’23’ had a somewhat hesitant start to the season, but has already regained the brilliance of last season with four assists and a goal.
