CD Castellón’s finest Segunda start of the century continues with Albacete win | OneFootball

CD Castellón are unbeaten and clear at the top after defeating Albacete, taking 10 of the first 12 points available. It marks their strongest Segunda start of the 21st century.

El Periódico Mediterráneo notes that extra away tickets for Saturday’s trip to Girona sold out in under an hour, after an initial 300 went inside four, and that a readers’ vote named Ousmane Camara player of the match with 37% after his goal and assist.

A year ago, with Johan Plat still in the dugout, Castellón had yet to win. They had one point from a draw with Real Zaragoza at SkyFi Castalia, after defeats to Racing, Valladolid and Córdoba.

This season they have managed to compete while fitting together a refreshed squad, with the main credit going to the staff led by Pablo Hernández. Wins over Sanse, Celta Fortuna and Albacete, plus a draw with Sabadell, underpin this record start.

Whatever happens at Montilivi, this opening already eclipses last season’s. Isra Suero polled 31% in the vote, with Jérémy Mellot third on 14%.
