Continuation of the 16th day of La Liga this Saturday evening. Rayo Vallecano traveled to Valencia to face Ruben Baraja’s troops, on the lawn of the Mestalla stadium. On the one hand, the Ches badly needed to win at home to hope to escape the red zone. On the other hand, the Franjirrojos wanted to score points to continue to climb the rankings. In a relatively tough match, it was the visitors who opened the scoring thanks to Pathé Ciss (7th). No other major game events and Rayo locked in their success (0-1).
In the ranking, Rayo Vallecano is moving up but remains in the soft underbelly in 12th position, while Valencia is far behind, in the red zone in 19th place. Next weekend, Ches will face Valladolid away. The Franjirrojos will host Real Madrid for a derby in the Spanish capital, during the 17th day of the Spanish championship.
