Real Mallorca lost 1-0 away to Madrid side Alcorcon on Friday night. That’s now five times we’ve failed to get a result in five visits (two draws, three defeats) to their tiny, Santo Domingo ground. We should have come away with at least a draw but in my opinion the fact that we had to play two games in the space of four days played a major part in our first defeat of the season, as we ran out of gas towards full time. We missed a couple of sitters and were on the back foot for most of the game. Yes, we lost our unbeaten run but Alcorcon looked a yard faster than us and took an early lead after 14 minutes. The veteran ex-Real Betis and Villarreal striker Jonathan Pereira finished off a cross from the right wing with the Mallorca defence ball watching.
