Each team were required to play just one session of 45 minutes against one opponent, followed by the same period against the other later on. First up was Torry v Churra.

Omar strengthens the front line.
CD Torrevieja has finalised a new deal that will see the addition of Seydina Omar Mouhamed Thiam (Senegal, 1994) to the Club, after an agreement was reached by both parties. Omar is a striker who stands out for his aerial ability thanks to his height of 1,94 cm and his physical power.
The Senegalese front man began his sporting career playing for local teams in his country of birth. He rose through the divisions and ended up playing for the selection into the Senegal sub-17 team.
However, he then left Senegal and moved to the Czech Republic to form part of the Kim Grant International Football Academy for the 2013/2014 season. In 2016-2017 he joined CF Alcalá, in the Preferente Group 1 team, but it wasn’t long before he then left for UE L’Alcudia in Group III to finish the 16/17 season.
Last season (2017/2018) he returned to CF Alcalá, where in one match he managed to score a massive five goals, although he ended the season with UD Benigánim, who remained just outside the play-offs to ascend into the Third Division.
