de Celta en el 33'
  • 33'
    GOAL! CELTA! WASS! Celta have looked dangerous on the counter and that is how they take the lead. Aspas plays in Wass who is in acres of space down the right and he dinks a delightful effort over Navas and into the back of the net from the edge of the box.
  • 26'
    Casemiro takes aim from range and forces Ruben into a save. The resulting corner comes to nothing.
