Very unfair result, but things are looking like the second round of last season

[ggeorg]

Not going to comment on the game but since the football season had started there have been endless disgraceful decisions with handballs been given as a penalty. It seems that every time the ball is touching a hand in the area no matter the circumstances var decides it's a penalty. I have noticed cases where a winger tries a cross aiming to the defender's body in case it hits his hand. That's ridiculous. Center backs need to cut their hands i can see another solution.

Why just Centre Backs? After all David Simon position was Right Back. They might as well cut their arms off.

this is a new rule for this season. have you seen yesterday the penalty of Germany? even more ridiculous than Albacete's. we have to practice on training, how to hit the hands of the opponents with the ball inside their penalty box.

for me Simon was the best today.

if we did not win in gijon and @ home against Numancia
surely aquela will be sack

[Marci 14]

We can blame the ref, the VAR anybody but we had more than enough chances to score at least one goal before the controversial penalty. Surely things would have gone differnetly if we had seized one of the opportunities.
Forget this one and let's focus to the next match.

[Ricardo]

We did no deserve to lose the game, should have at least been a draw. But we need to do more if we want to win games and not depend on a decision from the Ref.

Some positive things from the new signings, I can see them giving us an impetus, especially Montero, Mollejo and Salva.

We need Peru N and Gaku in this Team, Alex and Vicente are not good enough to be starting every match.

We and Anquela need a victory in Gijon!

Well last seasons people were screaming for handballs not being whistled as penalty and at confusing rules that supported that. Now its simple - its a handball with very few exeptions. Stupid in my opinion, but we have to live with it. And yes, adaptation means training players to aim for the hands, a new thing to add to the simulation process going on for decades. Is this football or a drama class?

Overall our performance was bad. Albacete was a really poor side that did nothing. We created only a few chances against such a bad oppostion- almost all were from set pieces. We didn't score, we didn't deserve to win, but to loose was even more riddiculus.

5 newcomemrs playing, no chemistry, no team...yet. Let's hope we have one or else we will be top candidates for promotion from Segunda B.
The Atleti lads are good, hungry, involved - you can sense Simeone's winning influence. Ruiz will need to prove more, Jovanović was poor and the peruvian guy has a strong foot.
