Valencia drastically reduces its projection of conceded goals

It is a reality that Valencia has closed the tap at the time of conceding goals. Bordalás’ team was just five days ago the third club that had received the most goals of the entire competition this season and the 1-4 win against Fútbol Club Barcelona meant that at a defensive level hit rock bottom. Really, Valencia did not look like a José Bordalás team well, styles aside, that fragility to receive so many was something that had never been seen in a team from Alicante.

But at a stroke everything has taken a turn. the set that he has only conceded one goal in the last five league games -and it was his own-, he has barely conceded chances to his rivals and his projection of conceded goalss, while far from being that of a high-tier team, has shrunk. So much so, that the black and whites have passed from averaging 64 goals conceded throughout the season to a figure of ten fewer, 54, And all this in five days.

the numbers follow far from what a Bordalás team should be and an entity that wants to look at Europe. Without going any further, the coach said in his presentation that “a team that has fitted 53 goals per season The last two years can not aspire to ambitious things” . Well, after having reduced the average number of goals conceded by ten goals, the coach from Alicante is in a average of 54 goals at the end of the course, he has eight days to turn it around.

Mamardashvili inexpugnable

Son many factors that have come together for the defensive improvement of the team: The three central defenders, the return of Paulista, the fact that the team has taken a step back with the ‘toll’ on attack that this entails… But without a doubt the great level of Mamardashvili has been decisive. the georgian wall has not conceded a goal since February 20 and has stopped everyone and each of the last 15 shots on goal he has received.
