Thierry Rendall plays again 322 days later
The Valencia CF full-back, recovered from his anterior cruciate ligament tear, returned to competition against FC Barcelona at the Estadi Johan Cruyff
Valencia CF remain unbeaten at Mestalla in 2021, in which they have 3 wins and 2 draws at home. So far this year, the team have played three matchdays at home, in which they have claimed three victories and conceded only one goal: The penalty scored by Gerard Moreno of Villarrea CF.
The solid defensive work is reflected in the statistics, with a lower number of chances from opponents than prior to the turn of the year. When teams do go through on goal, goalkeeper Jasper Cillessen has made some vital stops to keep his side in games.
Against Villarreal he saved from Paco Alcácer in the first half, then Moreno in the second, followed by Pedraza and Bacca efforts.
Valencia CF are now on a run of three consecutive victories at Mestalla, shipping just a single goal in the process.
