Gameiro takes momentum

Kevin Gameiro He opened the can last Saturday with a great goal that led the victory against Betis. The Frenchman scored his fifth goal this season (one assist), very poor figures with respect to which he signed last season: he finished with 12 goals and eight assists. However, the precedent of the past year makes hope that last Saturday's goal is the first of many.

Last year Gameiro arrived in February with an even worse return than in this course. He had only three goals and four assists before stepping on February. Of course, the last assistance, in the last days of January was the one that gave Rodrigo to score 3-1 against Getafe, in the Copa del Rey and unleashed the jubilation in Mestalla.

From there, from February to May he scored nine goals and gave four assists. The last of those goals was worth a title, the Copa del Rey against Barcelona, ​​at Benito Villamarín. This time, the goal has arrived on the last day of February. But If you repeat the end of last season, Valencia could achieve its objectives.

From February to the end of the season, Gameiro scored four goals in the League (Barcelona, ​​Athletic, Atlético and Alavés), three in Europa League (Celtic and Arsenal, two), and two more in the Copa del Rey (Betis and Barcelona). And also in these last four months of the championship he gave four assists: two in Europa League (Krasnodar) and two in Copa del Rey (Betis) that were worth the pass to the final. This year, once the injuries have been overcome and with Maxi Gómez, his competition in the lead, he intervened wants to repeat the end of last year to achieve the objectives.
