RC Celta and Valencia CF shared the points in a calm match at Mestalla (1-1). This draw, with the first clean sheet of the season, represents a further boost for the Galician team in their last match of November.
The 14th round of LALIGA EA SPORTS opened with Rafa Benítez’s return to the Valencia CF field. A visit, amidst applause and tributes, where the coach opted for a solid defense aiming to achieve his first clean sheet of the season. His pupils accomplished the task, but in their attempt to secure a greater loot, they encountered an obstacle: a solid, unbreachable Valencia team on their home ground. Thus, after a period full of opportunities but lacking precision, the score remained tied at halftime.
Both coaches tried to reverse the situation with changes on their benches after the break, reaching ten substitutions in the second 45 minutes. But no one gave in. The tactical game was served in double dose, and despite the most dangerous action of the match, a powerful shot from Aspas that forced Mamardashvili to stretch, tranquility reigned in Mestalla, leaving the scoreboard at zeros.
The next appointment for RC Celta will be on November 4th at Abanca Balaídos, where they will face Cádiz CF at 21:00h.
