The Spanish forward of Valencia, Rodrigo, was very attentive to win the position to Thomas Vermaelen in the minute 60 of party and, on the contrary of what seemed by what had seen until then on the lawn, went Valencia the one who achieved to undo the tables in the marker.
We remember that to Leo Messi had cancelled him half hour before a perfectly legal goal, after the balloon went in a metre in the interior of the goal of Net but, for surprise of all, neither Churches Villanueva neither his assistant were able to see it.
The question is that Valencia took advantage of the first minutes of the second half to win in intensity to the Barça, and in this short period of time the football was very unfair for the FC Barcelona. The ones of Valverde had embroidered it during all the first-half, playing surely the best first act of all the present season 2017-18.
However, it went Valencia the one who advanced thanks to a played in which Gayá broke by the left band and, from the interior of the area, was able to plant a pass of the death measured for Rodrigo, maximum goleador national with 8 goals in LaLiga 2017-18.
The Barça never slept of the everything
Like this then , the FC Barcelona deserved to have gone winning during big part of the party in Mestalla, but went however the 'chés' those who achieved to advance. It did not doubt a lot the joy, in any case, since the stars culés went back to synchronise minutes afterwards so that, in the minute 83, Jordi Alba annotated the goal of the tie. The anaesthesia of the goal of Rodrigo was not able to calm of the all to the Barça.
