ANDn a delicate week like few others, Real Valladolid faced their trophy with doubts about the sports project and the anger on the part of the fans for the management of the transfer market and with the echo resounding in Zorrilla de the dismissal of Fran Sánchez just over 24 hours ago.
But soccer is so unpredictable that the Castilians completed their best game of the summer against a complacent Rayo Vallecano. After the bad start against Legans and a flat game against Rayo Majadahonda, Valladolid was already better in Anduva despite the defeat. However, against Rayo Vallecano he did find the scoring prize that he did not obtain in Miranda. And he did it in a seen and unseen, in a first part in which he signed an overwhelming 3-0 with prominence especially for two players from the subsidiary and for one of the few signings of the summer: Cedric, Tunde and Ral Moro. In fact, these three players have been the most positive note for Pezzolano’s men in the four games played.
With Rayo starting from a good proposal, those of Francisco were surpassed by the speed and desire of the young. And all on the run. First it was Tunde who, devilish from the left wing, crossed the ball to the far post, where Ral Mor finished off Morro and Cedric, alert, finished off the back of the goal. The goal encouraged Valladolid, who kept trying with a Moro who did not let up the defense of the strip. The winger on loan from Lazio put the ball in the hot zone and again Cedric riveted mercilessly for the second. The Cameroonian set out to take the ball for the Ciudad de Valladolid Trophy home and he succeeded. In an individual action, he defeated the Vallecano defense and with a classy detail he beat Morro again for 3-0.
The second part left massive changes in the Lightning at halftime and from 60 in Valladolid, slower pace and the visitors taking the initiative despite the fact that Pucela was closer to fourth. But it was Francisco’s men who pressed against the goal in the last minutes to make up the result and fight the game. In just a few minutes, they went from 3-0 to 3-2 thanks to goals from Lejeuneafter a good cross from Pacha Espino, and lvaro Garcia with time almost up.
