Matchday 12 of LALIGA EA SPORTS was marked by the support of Spanish soccer for all those affected by the disaster caused by the passage of the DANA in our country. The match started with an emotional minute of silence as a sign of mourning, while in the stands, numerous gestures of encouragement and a banner of “Força València” could be seen. A feeling of a whole country shocked by what happened and that supports the Valencian people in this difficult situation they are going through.
A match in which the club paid tribute to Celta Atletismo for the celebration of its centenary being the Olympic athlete, Alice Finot, in charge of the kick-off that would mark the start of the match.
The sky blues returned to the path of victory at home, adding another three points after beating Getafe in a match that was resolved in just 10 minutes. Tasos Douvikas headed into the back of the net a gift from Iago Aspas on the right flank. Claudio Giráldez’s team was superior in most of the match, looking for lines and with a defensive barrier that nullified any attacking attempt from the rival team.
The second half of the match was a copy of the first, with Celta in control of the game and with continuous attacks on Soria’s goal. Celta missed too many chances and finally got the victory after the early goal of the Greek striker.
The next date of the competition will be this Sunday, at the Benito Villamarín stadium, where RC Celta will visit Real Betis at 14:00h.
