Subs: Carlos, Javi, Gallas, Yony, Manuel and Carmelo Goal: 1 – 0 Chulo in the 65th minute In their first pre season friendly, Club Deportivo Montesinos took on CD Cox from the 1st Regional division, one division above Montesinos. Cox were champions of the 2nd Regional last season, and were by far the best team in the league, but they came up against a CD Montesinos side which, despite being without 6 first team regulars, surprised their higher division rivals with their commitment, hard work and a decent amount of skill and flair. Although the first half ended goalless, it was the local side that had the better chances, and they could have gone into the half time break in front. The 100 or so in the crowd at the Municipal Los Miras, in Montesinos, was an increase in numbers which included members from their new International (CB) Football Supporters’ Club, known as “The Full Monte”. The supporters’ club will follow the club home and away all season. Certainly new and old fans alike were impressed with the team manager Juan Pedro Lopez Olmedilla, better known as “Juanpe”, has put together. The only goal of the game came in the 65th minute, when a long pass by Gallas found Chulo, who lobbed the ball over the oncoming visiting goalkeeper and into the open net, much to the delight of the home supporters. The final 15 minutes saw Montesinos tire, as Cox pushed forward looking for the equaliser which, thanks to some good defending and even better goalkeeping, did not materialise. The Montesinos manager, Juanpe, said after the game that he was satisfied with the Effort and hard work his players had put into the game. He was also very confident that once the missing players returned, CD Montesinos could well be challenging for a place at or near the top of the division this season. It is still very early days, but Juanpe, who was a player at FC Torrevieja when British fans started their own supporters club, can see similar signs of increasing support at Montesinos. “The northern Europeans live football in a very different way to the Spanish fans, and I am sure that the enthusiasm, hard work and commitment of our supporters club, “The Full Monte”, will rub off onto the local fans this season”.
