Desperate situation for a Valencian team that falls in the Mediterranean Games and does not get out of the pit.
Almería and Valencia faced each other in a direct duel in the battle for permanence. A game that the Andalusians came to after only one win in the last eight games. In fact, another defeat would seriously jeopardize the position of their current coach. This Sunday, however, they secured a vital victory to catch air and further sink Baraja’s team, who had come out of a draw against Rayo the previous day and could not escape fires.

A hard-fought victory for an Almería team who scored three fundamental points for the first time during a Valencia visit to their fiefdom. Despite the Ches being superior in the first half, Rubí’s men managed to level the bet on the board in the second half, and taking advantage of a mismatch from the visitors, Gonzalo Melero opened the scoring.
A few minutes later, Babic made a mistake at the start of Mamardashvili which seemed to condemn Valencia, but in moments Castillejo would find the way to hope. But while the distance had been reduced in electronics, the position on the green had the red-and-red team firmer, with today’s acclaimed figure of an incombustible Samu Costa, who managed to withstand Ches’ feeble attacks to take the to achieve victory.

Goalless break in the Mediterranean Games that currently does not satisfy anyone’s aspirations for victory, although it will undoubtedly be Rubén Baraja who leaves most satisfied with what his team has shown, who has monopolized the ball and mostly in this first half .
