http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-CF-c40864 have failed to get back-to-back wins as they could only manage to come away with a point after their 1-1 draw with Real Valladolid on Sunday
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Aly-Cissokho-c5313 headed in a set-piece by Andres Guardado.
The hosts, Valladolid could not come up with a sudden response to the score line. It remained that way until the second half as Valencia did not let up their pressure.
However, everything changed when Los Che were reduced to ten men after their goal scorer, Cissokho was sent off for fouling http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Omar-Ramos-c28587 inside the box.
It was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Victor-Perez-c36084 who stepped up for the penalty kick and made things equal. However, the hosts were not able to take advantage of their superiority in numbers as the match finished 1-1.
Meanwhile Valencia boss, Pellegrino believes the sending off of his player is what changed the outcome of the game.
Pellegrino stated that he was not happy with the result since their intention was to get all three points.
The Argentine has also spoken on the referee’s decision for sending off Cissokho and awarding the penalty kick to Valladolid. He believes Omar intentionally went down.
“We are not happy with the result because we wanted to win. It was not a penalty, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863 were going to regain the ball.”
“The match totally changed with Cissokho’s red card, but for the final eight minutes we still regained control of it. Overall the game was even and they had not had many chances.”
On the other hand, Real Valladolid coach, Miroslav Dukic, believes his team deserved more than the one point they got from the match.
Dukic stated that his team went for the win and played a very good match.
“Valladolid were very good, we dominated, took the ball and were not going to settle for the draw,”
The Serbian coach does not agree with his counterpart regarding the penalty awarded by the referee.
“The penalty seemed clear to me, whilst both Omar and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alberto-Bueno-c4317 did well, moving between the lines.”
Valencia are currently sitting on the 9th position on the table with just 15 points.
