Journalists were wrong stating that Denys Harmash and Sofiane Feghouli would be key performers of their teams as they weren’t among first eleven.
In the second half of the game Valencia created seven chances and scored twice.
It should be mentioned that Olexandr Rybka, who took the field after two-year suspension, featured very impressively.
Anyway Vargas headed the ball in 79 minutes into the game. Vida's own goal doubled the score in a stoppage time.
