Cádiz’s goals against Valladolid
In the 33rd minute of the first half, Theo Bongonda was brought down inside the area, and the referee signaled a penalty for Cádiz. Rubén Alcaraz went for the kick, but ended up hitting the crossbar and wasting a great chance for the home team to open the scoring.
On the way back from the break, the hosts managed to open the scoring in the 25th minute. Theo Bongonda received a pass from Choco Lozano on the edge of the area and tapped it. The ball hit the crossbar before going in and scoring 1-0.
Six minutes later, Cádiz were awarded another penalty and, this time, Theo Bongonda was on target. The Belgian striker kicked in Jordi Masip’s right-hand corner and extended the home team’s lead. Finally, already in the final stretch, at 35 minutes, Martin Hongla received a direct red card and left Valladolid with ten on the field.
