Valencia’s season finale was pure emotion. At Mestalla, against champions Barcelona, Carlos Corberán’s team turned the game around in just 5 minutes and ended up winning 3-1 thanks to a true screamer from Guido Rodríguez, who struck in stoppage time on the final matchday of the 2025/26 LaLiga season.
With the match already winding down and Barcelona pushing to pull one back, the World Cup-winning midfielder won the ball back in the opposition half and didn’t hesitate. From outside the box, he unleashed a powerful low right-footed strike that nestled inside Wojciech Szczęsny’s left post, leaving the goalkeeper with no chance to prevent the final 3-1. It was the 97th minute, putting the finishing touch on an unforgettable victory for Valencia, who came from behind against the LaLiga champions in a devastating burst.
A record half-season for Guido
Beyond the importance of the goal against Barcelona, the end of the campaign left a very positive stat for Guido Rodríguez. The Argentine midfielder reached four goals in just 16 appearances, making it his highest-scoring season since arriving in European football in January 2020.
The Argentine had already scored a brace against Celta on matchday 30 and then found the net again against Real Sociedad on matchday 37. Now, he wrapped up the season with another brilliant goal against the Spanish champions and hit a personal best in Europe, as he had never scored four goals in a single season before.
Meanwhile, Poland’s Robert Lewandowski signed off from Barça with a goal in the final round of LaLiga. The champions lost 3-1 at Mestalla to Valencia, who finished 9th, outside the European qualification spots.
