Outstanding performance
Celta de Vigo•AttackerCelta de Vigo needed just 41% possession to put five goals past Racing Santander, a stark illustration of clinical finishing over territorial control - they had 9 shots on target from just 13 attempts. A first-half penalty from Hugo González and a thumping strike from Ilaix Moriba gave Celta control by the break, before Miguel Román's outside-the-box effort and a second-half Pablo Durán double turned the game into a rout. Durán, introduced at halftime, was the standout with two goals including a breakaway finish in stoppage time. For Racing, who out-passed and out-possessed their hosts, the result is a damaging one that will raise questions about their defensive fragility, while Celta's dominant finishing and 25 tackles to Racing's 15 show a team that pressed high and punished every mistake.
