Valencia collected a first win in LaLiga Santander since November with a 1-0 victory over Real Valladolid.

Valencia went closest to opening the scoring in the first half when Jose Luis Gaya's speculative effort came back off the woodwork, with Jordi Masip saving Carlos Soler's follow-up shot.

Los Che's captain did eventually find the net, though, beating Masip for power with a strike from distance with 15 minutes remaining.

Manu Vallejo thought he'd added a second goal for Gracia's side, only to be denied when VAR spotted an offside in the build-up.

Valencia held on for a vital three points, though, moving as many points clear of the relegation zone and soaring as high as 13th in the table. Valladolid drop to 16th.
