UE Cornellà open the league campaign against Atlètic Lleida

The moment of truth has arrived. After a pre-season that has left plenty of positive impressions, the men’s first team will play their first official match of the season this Sunday. We travel to face Atlètic Lleida at the Estadi Municipal Ramon Farrús in the opening match of the league campaign. Kick-off is at 12:15 pm, in an exceptional setting.

Ignasi Senabre’s side head into the fixture after recording four wins and one draw in their five pre-season matches. According to captain Marc Fernández, “the team is in good physical shape and has a very clear understanding of what we are looking for.”

It will therefore be a demanding first test, requiring the intensity and competitiveness needed to start building a successful season. “Atlètic Lleida are one of the teams that will be competing near the top, so it will be a difficult match,” the captain said.

In attack, Marc has been the team’s top scorer during pre-season, with four goals, figures that lead him to believe he comes into the new campaign “in better shape than last season.” Meanwhile, the three goals conceded in five pre-season matches reflect the team’s strong defensive form heading into the start of the season.

Everything is ready, and the ball will be rolling again this Sunday. A new season begins, a new challenge awaits, and UE Cornellà are determined to take the first step with ambition.
