Defeat Atltico Baleares with a goal from Marcos Andr in the first minute of the match
47 seconds late Valencia to deactivate the bomb prepared by the Balearic Islands, the ‘giant killer’ of this Copa del Rey that ape Getafe and Celta without mercy. Bordals’ team was warned that the draw could have given him a poisoned rival, but he barely lasted alive. the goal of Marcos Andr liquidated the pass to the quarterfinals and sharpened any capacity for surprise.

The Balearic Islands had overcome the merciless shake of the Covid in recent weeks -which team has not-, they have lost their last scorer, Manel Martínez, who followed the game from his home near the field, but they were going to try to advance a step more before a Valencia that faces its own demons. In this case, I chased them away before the first minute was up. A directed header from Racic found Marcos Andr among the central defenders who, dazzled by the midday sun, were unable to contain the Brazilian and found themselves with the score against them.
The Valencianists did not even have to grease Bordals’ system change, with three central defenders among which the youth squad was placed Christian Mosquera to exit the game and with Yunus Y Gay as long lanes and Andr and Huro Duro as point guards. In the center, the only thing he has available: Guillamn, Racic and Koba. Neither Soler has arrived on time nor Wass, confined and angry about his, for the time being, suspended exit to the Atlético.
Although Atltico had a hard time getting into a rhythm after a month without competing in the First RFEF, they were not overwhelmed by a rival who barely had two more chances, a heel from Yunus that Ginard saved and a low cross from the right by the American that hooked Gay on the other suit but took out the defense. A left-handed Diony Villalba It was the only warning from the Balearic Islands. The dreaded trap did not appear.
Inaccuracies and a lot of struggle also marked the beginning of the second half, in which Atltico tried to stretch towards Jaume’s goal, forcing cards from Racic and Guillamn and forcing Bordals to move the bench. Valencia did not suffer, but with that short marker, any mistake would be fatal and lungs and artillery were needed, ingredients that put Foulquier Y Guedes. Both teamed up to leave a shot to Koba that is lost tight to the stick.
The locals were also activated, who had their clearest chance in a center that could not head vinicius after winning the space to Diakhaby. But the party did not change too much. Faith did not even appear to look for a tie that would have put fear in the body of a Valencia that ended with four youth squads in the field and protecting itself against the risk of an improper alignment. But waiting for a rival in the quarterfinals.
