Valverde’s squad adds another win, moving closer to the European spots five games later.
The athletics club claimed victory in their visit to True Valladolid’s field (1-3). It was a solid result for the rojiblanco side, snapping a streak of four winless matches and reopening the scoring, with Inigo Martinez celebrating his return to the national team by finding the net early in the second half, while Gorka Guruzeta extended the lead. Cyle Larin’s goal in the 74th minute rekindled Valladolid’s hopes, but the ensuing penalty was confidently converted by Michael Vesga four minutes later, restoring a two-goal margin for the visitors.
