🤝Alavés and Valencia share the spoils: points split at Mendizorroza | OneFootball

Alavés and Valencia CF sealed a goalless draw (0-0) at Mendizorroza, closing Matchday 9 of LaLiga EA Sports with a distribution of points that left both teams with mixed feelings. The match was an intense and physical duel, with more vigor than clarity in the final meters from both contenders.

The Vitorian team, spurred on by their fans, managed possession in the first half, but clear chances were scarce against the solid ché defense and the standout performance of Giorgi Mamardashvili. Rubén Baraja's men were solid, organized, and focused on preventing the opponent from creating danger.

After the break, the script barely changed. The game was mainly played in the midfield, with much contest and few strong offensive ideas. Although Alavés insisted on searching for a goal with lateral crosses and some long-range shots, Valencia controlled the game without much trouble.

The result, the third consecutive home match without defeat for Alavés, allows them to add a valuable point to stay in the middle of the table. Meanwhile, Valencia manages to add away from home but continues flirting with the lower part of the standings, accumulating another matchday without achieving a victory that would give them some relief.
