MATCH REPORT J9: POINTS SHARED AT THE NOU MUNICIPAL (1-1)
UE Cornellà picked up a point against FE Grama (1-1) in their ninth league fixture, played on Saturday at 6:30 pm at the Nou Municipal de Cornellà. The Greens were unable to build on the victory they had secured the previous matchday in Badalona, but managed to earn a draw against the side from Santa Coloma.
Fran Orellana gave FE Grama the lead in the 13th minute, forcing Cornellà to step up their efforts in search of a response. The Greens kept pushing and were rewarded just before half-time, when Marc Esteban equalised in the 41st minute with a long-range strike that found the top corner.
In the second half, both teams looked for the goal that would secure all three points, but the score remained unchanged, despite several clear-cut chances for the Greens in the closing stages. As a result, Cornellà and FE Grama shared the points after an evenly contested match at the Nou Municipal.
