Print Edition
COACHLESS Valencia earned its first win and points of the season as Daniel Parejo’s late penalty gave it a 2-1 success at home to Alaves on Thursday.
Valencia came into the match bottom of La Liga having sacked coach Pako Ayestaran following four straight defeats to start the season.
But an own goal from Victor Laguardia on 28 minutes gave it the lead before Gaizka Toquero equalized for Alaves on the stroke of half-time.
But when substitute Zakaria Bakkali drove into the box four minutes from time, he was tripped by Marcos Llorente and Parejo sent goalkeeper Fernando Pacheco the wrong way from the spot.
The three points moved Valencia up two places but it remains in the drop zone.
Osasuna, which lost 1-2 at home to Espanyol, dropped to the bottom.
That win moved Espanyol up to 15th.
Alaves remains in mid-table after losing for the first time this season.
Also, Leganes won 2-1 at Deportivo La Coruna, leaving both in mid-table.
