Valencia CF and CA Osasuna drew 0-0 in the LALIGA EA Sports Matchday 7 game played on Tuesday at Mestalla. Our team tried until the end to get a new victory after the win against Girona FC, but despite the attempts and chances from André Almeida and Dani Gómez, the score remained goalless until the final whistle. The team earns a point that should serve to continue growing as a team and will look for a victory this Saturday against Real Sociedad.
The first half was very even, in line with the first half against Girona FC. With both teams taking few risks, trying to steal the ball to set up a quick attack and with two Valencian approaches that put the Navarrese team on alert.
Valencia CF was looking for the way to the opponent's goal and they did it with André Almeida's appearances between the lines.
The clearest chance for Valencia CF came just before halftime. A run by Luis Rioja, who advanced meters ahead of opponents, put the ball to the penalty spot and André Almeida's shot almost went in, but went just wide of the post.
After the break, Valencia CF enjoyed their best minutes of the match. They moved forward, took the initiative, generated more chances and put CA Osasuna on the ropes. André Almeida put in a dangerous cross to the near post, Dani Gómez came in strong from behind and his shot was narrowly saved by the rival goalkeeper.
The team continued to look for Sergio Herrera's goal with insistence and with the support of the more than 40,000 people in attendance at Mestalla, but the winning goal, despite the efforts of our team, was not forthcoming.
