The Cadiz side, under Sergio González, climbed out of relegation danger with a win away to Valencia, thanks to Rubén Sobrino’s early strike.
Cadiz took control at Mestalla on matchday 16 of the 2022/23 Santander League. Rubén Alcaraz opened the scoring after a swift burst from Sobrino, who delivered the final pass with precision from the bottom line, guiding the ball into the net.
Gennaro Gattuso and his Valencia squad showed more heart than cohesion, managing only sporadic forays down the flanks and a sharp volley from Gayá that tested the Cadiz goalkeeper. With three points earned, Cadiz moved out of the relegation zone and reached 15 points, while Valencia remained in tenth with 19.

Press conferences after Valencia vs. Cadiz from LaLiga
Gattuso: “I’m sorry for the fan who passed away today. Rest in peace. We faced a very tough game. We were stretched and did not defend well. We gave Cadiz time and space, and we attacked in open play. The match showed a lot of disorder, we created little, and the defeat is deserved.”
He continued: “Cadiz carried the ball for long stretches, and our defense struggled. We were soft and lacked the right mindset. This is a difficult moment, and I am the coach responsible. We need to understand what’s happening, not hang our heads, but keep pushing forward.”
“Losing to a team that has won only twice is hard to take. I am responsible, and I must convince the players to stay focused, to keep working. It’s a tough defeat, but there’s no time to dwell.”
Sergio González: “Very happy. It was a powerful display. We recovered the essence of our game, played as a unit, and showed courage against a Valencia side that is always dangerous. The team fought with intensity and, above all, with football clarity. We understood we needed 5-6 chances per game, and we created enough to score again. Valencia did not test our goalkeeper much, and Conan stood out. It’s a collective victory that brings recognition and a well-deserved reward.”
