No excessive problems for Valladolid
Valladolid had no excessive problems winning their second preseason match (they drew 1-1 against Athletic Bilbao last week). Valladolid defeated Celta de Vigo B from Segunda B 0-3. Garitano's team started dominating thanks to the strength in the midfield of Timor and Leao, who clearly outperformed the Celta midfield. Mario Hermoso closed his side well and had good actions, and Arroyo fulfilled his duties without excessive pressure. The goal that opened the scoring came in the 10th minute of the first half after a good combination involving Óscar, who played a wall pass with Caye Quintana and the latter scored.
Galicians stretched, but Valladolid had the game under control
The Galicians stretched, but Valladolid had the game quite under control. Juanpe and Silva showed themselves to be secure and forceful, always supported by the broom that André Leao represents. It had to wait until the final moments of the first half to see some more dangerous opportunities through Iglesias. In this first half, Garitano's team dominated, with Guzmán's great mobility, Álfaro's good attitude, Óscar's tremendous quality (a headache for opponents), and good sensations from Mario Hermoso.
The second half
Regarding the second half, we must talk about the first 30 minutes and the last 15. While the scheme was maintained, Valladolid deployed much better in attack and, once again, thanks to Óscar, who made the difference, they scored after a ball theft by Álfaro, who took advantage to assist Guzmán for the second goal. Pacense took care of sending the cross to the head of Álfaro in the 60th minute to close the scoring. In the 70th minute, Garitano changed the entire team and the match started dying off without any more chances. A positive trial, nothing more.
