Defensive solidity at the Mestalla makes up for attacking deficiencies

Date:

The two clean sheets harvested last week at the Mestalla has covered in recent days the shortcomings in attack of a Valencia that has almost accumulated five goals in its first seven games and just one win in the Liga and this is due to two rebound goals from out of place

Valencia is not there yet escaped from danger. Although in the absence of the end of the day those from Mestalla emerged from relegation with four out of six at home in the last two games, the fact is that the Valencian team still has a lot of room for improvement.

Their poor scoring numbers, With five goals in seven games, they have the fourth worst scoring start in their history and these are numbers that do not reflect the effectiveness of their forwards, but rather the number of attempts on goal by a team that got just 18 shots on goal in seven games.

However, the return after the damage of Hugo Duro, who accumulates nine of those eighteen shots between three sticks, can help build a better attack for the Valencian team, or at least to have a clear reference at the top , after the last two games with Dani Gómez up front, who started the League behind Duro and Rafa Mir in the rotation.

Although their next opponent may not seem the most favorable given the defensive consistency of recent seasons, the fact is that the Royal Society They have lost the three games they have played at home this season and their start has been as negative as that of the Mestalla team.

Although Rubén Baraja said at the end of the match against Osasuna that Rojillo’s team was looking for “play the long game” and Valencia has become “desperate”, that seems to be the plan of a Valencia that must take advantage of Real’s doubts, with five points in the first seven games and losing at home against Rayo Vallecano (0-2 ), Alavés ( 1 -2) and Real Madrid (0-2).

However, this is what the team is for Ruben Baraja it is necessary to pay attention to Luis Rioja who already warned about what happened to Valencia against Osasuna: “We are looking for the goal more persistence “That was because of the quality in the last pass and our effort was enough,” underlined a thoughtful and veteran Rioja, who in recent games has been one of the great assets of this beardless Valencia.
