Valencia was also quite happy because they were able to win at home against Athletic Bilbao even though before the match started Athletic Bilbao was superior. However, Athletic Bilbao had to suffer defeat in that match and it is quite possible that Athletic Bilbao will be overtaken by Barcelona again if Barcelona can win tomorrow at home to Real Betis. Now Valencia is in seventh place, but if tomorrow Real Betis is able to win at home in the match against Barcelona, of course Valencia's position will also change again.
Valencia scored a single goal and won, their 4th victory in a row. Hugo Duro jumped very well and scored another header. Duro is playing very well this season, already scoring 9 goals. We may see him in big teams in the coming years. Valencia is also a big team, but he can go to one of the bigger teams with this performance.
With this result, Valencia rose to 7th place. These are the times we are used to seeing them. Valencia should always be around there. Success comes with a young and good squad.
If you look at the game in this match, they really deserved Velencia's win. The reason is that in that match they had several opportunities that could be said to be good in that match, where Velencia showed extraordinary defense and effectiveness. It's true, Athletic appeared more solid in the first half, they had several clear opportunities which they couldn't finish.
However, entering the second half, Valencia took control of the game, and managed to show success by scoring a goal in the 61st minute through H. Duro was also the only shot at Athletic's goal in this match which ended in a goal. . With this victory, Velencia created a positive trend because it managed to achieve its fourth win in a row. I think they will continue to improve the standings in the remaining games this season.
