“Baïla Diallo was booked for a foul just before half-time, a sign of the mounting frustration in what had been a physical first half.”
“Substitute Jacobo González broke the deadlock in the 85th minute, converting to make it 1-0 and hand Córdoba all three points.”
PivotalOutstanding performance

Córdoba controlled this La Liga 2 derby from start to finish, dominating possession at 56%, generating 19 shots to Granada's six, and creating three big chances to their opponents' none — yet somehow arrived at the 85th minute still level. The numbers told the story of a team doing everything right except finishing, with all three of those big opportunities spurned before the breakthrough eventually came. Granada, reduced to ten men when Diego Percan was shown a red card for violent conduct in the 80th minute, were hanging on grimly when substitute Jacobo González stepped off the bench and immediately punished them five minutes later. The result keeps Córdoba pushing in the right direction in the table, while Granada's afternoon unravelled in the cruelest fashion — disciplined for 79 minutes, then undone by an ill-tempered moment and a clinical late strike.
