Events

Match Events

  • 11' Ruben Duarte, a Spain , has 4 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
  • 16' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Valencia CF that had 434 games and scored 407 goals.
  • 21' Ander Guevara has been one of the livelier players on the pitch with 0 goals to his name this season.
  • 26' Sergi Canos has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 10 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 31' The midfield battle is intense right now. Both Deportivo Alavés and Valencia CF are fighting for every inch of the pitch.
  • 36' Valencia CF come into this ranked in Array. They desperately need points to push themselves up the standings.
  • 38' Poor challenge from Jon Guridi. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
  • 43' It’s high time Luís García made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 45' Deportivo Alaves receives a Yellow card for a hard tackle on 45.
  • 46' The supporters are chanting for Cristhian Mosquera. He replaces Cenk Ozkacar on 46 minute.
  • 51' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
  • 56' Both keepers have barely been tested. Deportivo Alavés and Valencia CF are cancelling each other out in the centre of the park.

  • 80' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Rafa Marin suffering a number of foals already.
