Playing at Vallecas is special because of the dimensions, how the stadium is, and now the context

Celta manager Giráldez says his side is determined to end a 30-year winless streak at Vallecas, where Rayo Vallecano play.

Celta manager Claudio Giráldez acknowledged on Friday that his team is eager to break the curse of Vallecas, where the Galician side has not won in La Liga for over 30 years.

Giráldez described Rayo Vallecano as a difficult opponent, praising their intensity and vertical play. He highlighted the importance of concentration and avoiding errors, noting that "at Vallecas you have to be very sharp, 90 minutes practically without making mistakes because everything happens very fast there."

The Celta manager emphasized his team's defensive solidity as a key strength that will earn them points throughout the season. He concluded by stressing the importance of converting chances into goals, saying that without goals it becomes harder to accumulate three points.
