Valencia Club de Fútbol drew 0-0 with Celta in its La Liga debut, leaving fans with the feeling that this season will be similar to the previous ones. The team of Claudio Giráldez demonstrated to be more rodado than the one of Corberán, where the reinforcements passed unnoticed. A Valencia very green, with reinforcements that barely emerged or changed anything, was unable to create danger for a Celta that gave the impression of being more rodado and with clearer ideas. The draw (0-0) annoyed the white and green fans, who have not taken long to understand that this season will not be very different from the previous ones, filled with suffering. The fans seem condemned to see the same movie once again. Carlos Corberán left clear that his priority is to maintain his goal intact and trusts that the rest will come with time. That objective, perhaps smaller, was achieved. The two teams were debuting in the second round of the League. The first match of the farewell of Mestalla, which starts its countdown before moving to the other end of the city, was disappointing. Two very timid teams faced each other. From the start, a soporific phase of probing that lasted more than 20 minutes in which Valencia had more of the ball, but without a clear center-forward, with Danjuma moving around the front, did not know what to do with it. Sato, the 19-year-old Japanese who has appeared this summer in Valencia's squad, spent the whole afternoon throwing passes without the midfielders making him any case. Danjuma, on the other hand, was searched for and not found. The Nigerian, inactive throughout last season, appeared as a starter by magic. The trick went wrong again for Corberán, who perhaps put him in the showcase to see if the PSV offer comes off and that translates into some income that strengthens his attack in the final stretch of the transfer market. Celta gave more of a sense of danger when it stole the ball and launched it quickly in depth, in the vicinity of Jutglà, converted into a boy on the edge of the Valencia area, who when trying to weave the game moving the ball horizontally. Then he found a Valencia retracted with everything it had. Corberán, who placed three center-backs, continues to have the obsession of defending his goal before everything else. Dimitrievski did not debut his gloves until mid-first half, forced by an uncomfortable shot from Febas. A little later he had to come out onto the balcony of the area to force a foul from El-Abdellaoui, who was already heading towards the goal alone. Although his best intervention was to deflect a dry shot from Javi Rodríguez. Valencia fired much less powder in the Celta area. Only two explosive shots, one annulled for offside, from Danjuma. When Miguel Román seemed to have made himself the owner of the center of the field, Javi Guerra ran one of his gallops and gave a gold ball to Ugrinic, who shot in a advantageous situation, but found a good response from Radu. The minutes were giving Celta confidence, with Febas and Román managing the dominance and with Carreira making perilous incursions to break the horizontal game of his team. Corberán changed several pieces to counteract this trend in the match, but the same tune continued, except for a Danjuma escape, straight towards Radu's goal, that Marcos Alonso knew how to slide to the left until the striker shot off-target. The clock was ticking and hardly any occasions were arriving to get excited. The public whistled in protest because they see another season that presents itself as mediocre.
