A long time has passed since Real Valladolid last enjoyed a victory equal to that achieved against Granada in the First Division. Exactly seven years, maybe a little more. The last time the white and violet set won away from home and scoring three goals It was on October 25, 2013, when they beat Rayo Vallecano 0-3, thanks to goals from Ebert, Javi Guerra and Larsson.
This time, Sergio González's men did fit a goal, the work by Domingos Duarte. However, and despite the arreón of Granada, Valladolid managed to sentence through Jota in the absence of one more minute the aggregate, sniffing a peak that had not been stepped on for a long time and giving pack to victory, deserved after a good overall performance.
At home, since the ascent, they only celebrated three goals on one occasion, although the Pucela ended up drawing. It was in the first days of the 2018-19 season, when Ünal and Leo Suárez neutralized the 3-1 favorable to Celta. By a two goal advantageAs on this occasion, they managed to beat Espanyol last season, by 0-2 on the seventh round, thanks to goals from Míchel and Óscar Plano.
During his journey in the Second DivisionFrom that 0-3 in Vallecas, there were several markers as much or more bulky. For example, Real Valladolid (already) of Sergio thrashed 1-5 at Lorca, on matchday 40 of 2017-18 and, just a few weeks later, in the playoff, he did the same against the Numantia, prevailing by 0-3 in a match that left promotion to First on track.
However, the sensation experienced in the New Los Cármenes It is new … and in duplicate: in that stadium, premiered in 1995, the Pucela I had won in Second, but not in First, another small milestone to celebrate and that should give confidence in the face of next Friday's clash against Levante, in which they will seek to endorse this victory and their good work.
