The best games remembered from childhood are in the rain. It is when the game, whether on a field with manicured grass or in the mud of an open field, takes on an epic patina, stepping in every puddle, soaked and smiling. If there is something left over from this Valencia full of needs, it is its contagious youthful joy, with which they overwhelmed Cádiz in a match that was predicted to be soulless, on the first Monday that announced winter, a “blue Monday” of blankets and Netflix. Happiness awaited in the Mestalla irrigation canal, where rainy dates are so rare that they always leave eye-catching matches. Last night with 41,647 irreducibles. And with bites, rabonas, walls, dribbles and stomps in 25 minutes, Rubén Baraja’s team blew the game away on the sides, with goals from gay y Hugo Duro. Allied with the early expulsion of Robert Navarro, this group, forcibly matured from the suffering of a dismantled project, was able to allow itself the luxury of enjoying the game, its perfect storm. Rediscovering the victory after four games has the added prize of a qualifying jump ideal to temper the pulse in a season that has a long stretch left.

It was the second entry from the left when after 4 minutes gay combined with Amallah, who in a dance step, stepped to anchor the entire Cadiz defense and sense the captain’s unfolding. Only before Ledesma, gay He stung smoothly to beat the Argentine goalkeeper. A silken goal to open the scoring and accelerate Valencia in a game full of risk, with the grass very fast and a high probability of slips and unforced errors. It is true that Cádiz, with tall people (Maxi Gómez, Chris Ramos, Fali) tried some set pieces, but their reaction was nipped in the bud with the direct red card to Robert Navarro. The Catalan took a long control and stepped on Pepelu’s leg with his heels. It was the 22nd minute and Valencia immediately took advantage of the confusion to score the second. Another boarding in which Escalante, with his clearance, enabled Thierry Rendall. The Amadora side, and it is not the first time in that same goal, went off the mark. Ledesma slightly stopped the shot and Hugo Durointuitive and always in the right place, hit the net with his head.
It stopped raining and Valencia wanted to lose their hair completely, with Pepelu as an undisputed leader, with Diego López feeling like he was on the streets of Turón, with Javi Guerra looking for his English 8 goal from the front, with Fran Pérez mischievous, but with one last cut left over. Cádiz tried to stretch after passing through the locker room, with Maxi Gómez opening to the wing to protect the ball, creating counterattacks with Javi Guerra running wild with long drives, in total freedom. The last pass failed. The game needed a break and with the score under control, Baraja moved the bench so that Hugo Guillamón could continue adding minutes and mental confidence. He was followed by Yaremchuk, still filming, and Foulquier, to remove the applause Hugo Duro y Thierry. In the 77th minute, the Ukrainian striker finished with a goal to make it 3-0, but slightly ahead. It must be a resource to exploit in a player who can once again be the one who makes his appearance in the Euro Cup showcase.

Mestalla was festive and asked for the third, in a Valencia with Pablo Gozálbez and Hugo González refreshing the extremes. He encountered the resistance of a proud Cádiz to seek the goal of honor, in the middle of the drop in tension and with Foulquier out of position. Mamardashvili avoided it on three occasions, standing out even on quiet nights.
