World Cup winner Shkodran Mustafi missed the chance of getting a decent result against Barcelona’s stars Messi and Neymar, as Valencia lost 1-0 in the Spanish La Liga. Playing in Gameweek 13, Valencia held out until the fourth minute of injury time when Sergio Busquets struck for Barcelona.
The result keeps Barcelona’s deficit to leaders Real Madrid at two points while Valencia lie fifth in the table, a further nine points back. Defender Mustafi completed the entire 90 minutes for his side and picked up a yellow card in a fiery first half while Barcelona’s German goalkeeper Marc-André ter Stegen did not play a part in the match.
Mario Gomez scores as Fiorentina win
With the captain’s armband, an assist and above all a first goal after 259 days, Mario Gomez really is on his way back. Having not played for the Germany national team in recent times, the striker celebrated not only a 4-0 away win with Fiorentina against Cagliari Calcio but also some personal achievements of his own.
Playing as captain, the former Bayern München player started by setting up Mati Fernández, who had already scored the first goal of the game in the 17th minute, for the team’s second goal in the 55th minute and Gomez himself then finished off a counterattack to make it 3-0 in the 69th minute. It was the injury plagued DFB-Team player’s first league goal for more than eight months. Fiorentina’s star Juan Cuadrado then ensured the victory with a goal in the 74th minute.
