Triumph of Real Valladolid and El Molinón is no longer a fort

Valladolid took advantage of Sporting’s defensive fragility this Saturday and took three points from El Molinón (1-2) against an opponent who conceded their second consecutive defeat, the first at home this season.

Gallego recovered his most recognizable eleven, although he could not count on Kravets, due to suspension, and jumped onto the field ready to impose his style of play against an opponent who also wanted the ball, which provided an entertaining first half and with chances for both teams .

[+] See the summary of the match:

The first was local, a launch from outside the area by Aitor García that crashed into the base of the right post of the goal defended by Roberto, but the reply was not long in coming. Weissman kicked hard and the ball crashed into a squad.

Aitor was very active in the first minutes of the match and his was a shot that went high. Fran Villalba also tried his luck and shot wide.

Sporting arrived more, but Valladolid also did it with some danger and for a few minutes these approaches ended in corners in which the rojiblancos were going through some difficulties.

In one of them, the local defense was not forceful and the ball ended up at the feet of Aguado, who shot with power and, at the same time, very placed, and the ball beat Mariño in an avoidable play by the red-and-white defense.

Valladolid went into halftime leading the score, but not before the public angrily protested the referee’s decision not to get a card from Luis Pérez in an action with Gaspar Campos and that would have meant the expulsion of Valladolid for a double warning.

The second half began with a huge save by Roberto to a header from Gaspar Campos, saving his team from what would have been a draw and with many minutes to go.

Valladolid stopped the rojiblanco momentum and little by little they took control of the ball and approached the local area with danger, forcing Mariño to a good clearance from Weissman.

The pucelanos scored the second halfway through the second half in a new play in which the local defense failed to get a ball that they had under control and that after several rejections ended up at the feet of Gonzalo Plata, who was alone and shot hard overcoming Mariño .

However, the excitement remained because in the next play Sporting cut differences with a header, practically on the goal line, by Djurdjevic, which spurred his teammates and the public, off after the second goal from Valladolid.

The minutes went by, with Sporting looking for a draw and Valladolid well closed behind and trying to play as little time as possible until the referee signaled the end.
