Kevin Gameiro goal Vs Barcelona: Watch Valencia star upset Barcelona with 1-0 lead in Copa Del Rey final

Kevin Gameiro goal Vs Barcelona: Watch Valencia star upsetting Barcelona by scoring he opening goal to gain a 1-0 lead over Barcelona.

Barcelona are on the verge of facing an upset as Kevin Gameiro have scored the opening goal against the Catalan giants in the Copa Del Rey final.

Valencia are now one step closer to end Barcelona’s Copa Del Rey dominance and can secure a silverware this season, if they maintain the score.

The Blaugranas were stunned by the Bats as Kevin Gameiro found the net in the 22nd minute of the game. Barcelona seemed off-track and were not pressing Valencia’s midfield , which led to Gamiero finding space for himself.

It was an excellent game-play by Francis Coquelin, who gave a lofted pass to Gaya, who managed to stay onside and passed the ball inside the 18-yard box.

Further, unmarked Kevin Gameiro took the advantage and placed the ball at the top corner, giving no chance to Jasper Cillissen to thwart that goal.

Valencia are nearing towards the Copa Del Rey Victory, and for Barcelona it will be the first finale loss in this tournament after five years.

The Bats have been unexpectedly brilliant tonight. Although, they need to be on their toes for the rest of the game as Barcelona is capable of pulling a comeback, and Lionel Messi on his last match of the season tonight can pull out magic anytime.
