You also learn to climb with authority. Valencia started horrible against Cartagena and ended up winning with superiority. Without a doubt, it was the worst first part of the preseason and the improvement after the Murcian punch was evident. Goals from Cheryshev, Alderete and Jason closed the third victory of the preseason with nine goals for, three per game.
If the best of the first half is the goalkeeper, that Mamardashvili earns integers as July progresses, is that things have not turned out too well. Bordalás sends messages from the grass. He does not verbalize it publicly, but Going out to play with the four center-backs of the squad as starters, two of them (Diakhaby and Guillamón) placed as midfielders, is not a good sign. Cartagena was dominant in Puchades against Valencia with high pressure (so characteristic of the Valencian coach) that was greatly exceeded.
All the bad feelings that were reflected in the first half, materialized in the first minutes of the second. A coverage error in the band ended with a good center to the Cartagena area that, how could it be otherwise, Rubén Castro pushed the network.
Rowing. And this was Valencia with Cheryshev, Guedes and Jason, which entered the second half. A center from the Galician finished with a divided ball in the Cartagena area. The center-back cleared Guedes’ face (hands covering his face) and the rebound left the goal made to Cheryshev. Rocambolesco, but goal. And with the Russian’s goal the can was opened. It premiered Head altar, another of the qualities of the new Paraguayan central defender of Valencia, to sign the comeback. Jason, who has changed radically, closed the scoring with a penalty goal, the second of his preseason. With the closed comeback came the last goal of Cartagena that Bordalás felt bad. Very bad. Fit like that no.
