Vicente Rodríguez reunites with UD Logroñes

Valencia CF will begin its journey in the Copa del Rey 2023-24 this coming Thursday, November 2, at 8:00pm at the Estadio Las Gaunas. It will be a special match, as Valencia CF legend and Club ambassador, Vicente Rodríguez, played in the 2010 Copa del Rey tie against UD Logroñés.
Fixtures against UD Logroñés
Valencia CF has played 3 matches against the team from La Rioja: two knockout stages of the round of 32. The first tie was played in 2010, at that time, the knockout stages were played over two legs. The Valencian team won both matches by 0-3 (Las Gaunas Stadium) and 4-1 (Camp de Mestalla). In this phase, the 'dagger of Benicalap' scored 2 goals (one in each match).
In 2020, Valencia CF and UD Logroñés crossed paths again, also in the round of 32. In this match, the Valencian team won at Las Gaunas, with a goal by Maxi Gómez.
Vicente Rodríguez
Vicente is remembered as one of the best left midfielders in the history of Valencia CF, not only of Valencia CF, but of LaLiga and the world. Vicente had a profile that is very difficult to see in today's soccer. That inside/outside player who faced and hurt the opponent's defense with his verticality. Hence, the nickname 'El puñal de Benicalap' (The dagger of Benicalap).
Vicente Rodríguez played for Valencia CF for 11 seasons (340 official matches and 52 goals) in which he won 5 titles (La Liga 2001-2002, La Liga 2003-2004, UEFA 2003-2004, European Super Cup 2004 and Copa del Rey 2008).
