MADRID, 3 Feb. (EUROPA PRESS) –
Real Oviedo beat Málaga (0-1) this Friday on their visit to La Rosaleda on matchday 26 of LaLiga Smartbank, after scoring Manu Vallejo’s goal in the second half, to sink a player even further down the table. Andalusian team that finished the game with one less.
Although the locals came out with more impetus and desire than Álvaro Cervera’s, the lack of success ended up closing a goalless first half, although with clear chances for the visitors. Thus, after the break, the Asturians took a step forward to begin to dominate and approach the goal defended by Yáñez with more danger.
Precisely in one of those approaches, Manu Vallejo’s goal ended up arriving. The recent signing of the carbayones in this winter transfer window made his debut as a scorer with his new shirt after taking advantage of an assist from Enrich in the small area and diving with his head to put the first.
As a result of impotence, Esteban Burgos was sent off immediately after saying something to De la Fuente Ramos’s assistant about the action of the goal. From there, the locals threatened to react, but the numerical inferiority ended up being too much of a burden for a team that has accumulated seven straight games without winning and that will continue one more day in relegation places. Oviedo, with 34 points, is beginning to forget about that low zone.
