Micho's done it: Mallorca win again, escape drop, Muriqi makes history | OneFootball

Since the Argentine’s arrival, the Mallorcan side has completely changed its mentality: three wins, one draw, and just one defeat to climb to 15th place. With an unstoppable Muriqi, who surpassed Samuel Eto’o’s record, the Son Moix team is enjoying its best moment in La Liga.

Martín Demichelis continues to show that he did not come to Spain to go unnoticed. This Sunday, his Mallorca took a giant step toward survival by thrashing Rayo Vallecano 3-0. The win is no isolated event: it came right after beating Real Madrid, confirming that the team has fully understood the message of the Albiceleste coach.

“When I arrived, I said we were playing a 12-match tournament. In our internal table, we’ve taken 10 points from 15,” Micho said proudly in the press conference. And the numbers back him up: he took over a sinking team and now has it in 15th place with 34 points, two clear of the danger line marked by Elche.

Muriqi, the hero who surpassed Eto’o

The afternoon at Son Moix had an extra historic touch. Vedat Muriqi scored a brace and reached 55 goals in a Mallorca shirt, surpassing the historic mark of a total club idol like Samuel Eto’o.

What’s next for Mallorca

Despite the euphoria of moving out of the relegation zone, Demichelis is keeping his feet on the ground. “We’re in a better situation than yesterday, but a worse one than tomorrow, because now we have to go after Valencia,” he said. The objective is clear: keep picking up points so that the ghost of the second division finally becomes a thing of the past.

Demichelis has found his place in the world: in Palma de Mallorca, they are already talking about his “12-match tournament,” and the team is responding with football and goals.
