Mallorca will be playing home against Alcorcón today.
Alcorcón is in the middle of the table atm (they'll probably closer to the top than the bottom), meanwhile we're on a roll and optimism is high but, unlike in previous games where we've done well, Marco Asensio won't be available for us.
You guys probably won't remember, but last year, when we played against Recreativo, I posted this:

Hopefully we will get to see Marco Asensio play with the first squad for the first time. He's 17 and our biggest prospect; he has been performing really, really well with the B team so there's quite some hype around him atm... would be interesting to see what he can do when playing with the big boys.

Marco Asensio played the last 10 minutes, and he did really well. The team pushed a lot more with him on the field and he gave an insane assist which our striker Víctor blew (as usual
). This has been the positive surprise of the day... hope he gets more play time in the following weeks because if he can consistently play at this level then he will become a great addition to the team.
Well, 1 year later he has become the best player in the squad. He has been carrying us and is the main reason we have began to win our games along with Kasim (a CB promoted from the B team, he has improved our defens massively and the 5 games he partenered with Bigas in the center of the defense line have ended in a win for us and only 2 goals conceded in total). Now he's unavailable because he's playing with Spain's U19 squad (and apparently he's doing really well there aswell, as he scored and gave an assist to lead the team to a 2-0 win over Germany U19).
Hope we can keep our form even without Marco and we can win our 6th in a row!
