MATCH REPORT: Valencia CF lose 0-3 to Real Madrid CF

Valencia CF’s LaLiga Matchday 12 game against Real Madrid ended in a 0-3 defeat at Mestalla.

After a slow start, Valencia CF came close to scoring the opening goal on 20 minutes, following a brilliant move by Mayol. He won the ball just outside the Real Madrid penalty area and released a shot, forcing opposition goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois to stretch to save.

Real Madrid players protested every move made to halt their advances toward goal. Referee Hernández Maeso awarded a free kick to the visitors for a foul on Kylian Mbappé, just outside the penalty area, and whilst the initial effort was blocked, Fede Valverde scored from the rebound.

Eight minutes later, Arda Güler added a second goal for Real Madrid.

Three minutes before the end of the half, Stole Dimitrievski made an excellent save to keep a shot from Güler from outside the box at bay.

SECOND HALF

Valencia CF switched things up for the restart, bringing on Luís Rioja in place of Justin De Haas.

Real Madrid made an increasing amount of advances towards Dimitrievski’s goal. When Valencia CF went on the attack, they found themselves pulled back on several occasions.

Dimitrievski managed to keep out a Jude Bellingham shot from inside the box, in another chance for the opposition.

Valencia CF responded with a pass by Javi Guerra to Arnaut Danjuma, whose finish was blocked by Courtois.

.

In the 75th minute, Mbappé scored the third goal for Real Madrid CF on a counterattack.

The referee rounded things off by harshly sending off José Luis Gayà following a foul on Mbappé, and the game ended 0-3 to Real Madrid.

Valencia CF’s next game comes in the Copa del Rey against UE Tavernes, on Tuesday night at Mestalla.
