Liga: Valencia pockets a valuable victory at Rayo Vallecano

Published:

By: Nicolas Gerbault

Start of the 18th day of La Liga this Monday evening. Rayo Vallecano opened the doors of its Vallecas stadium to Valencia CF. After a fairly balanced and unexciting first period, the two teams continued to push in the hope of finally shaking the nets of their respective opponents. It was ultimately the Ches who managed to score in the wake of Sergi Canós (61st) and thus lock in a precious success (0-1) against the Franjirrojos.
