On Sunday evening, Celta Vigo secured their first win in La Liga this season with a hard-fought victory over Almeria at the Estadio Benito Villamarín. The match was closely contested throughout, but it was Celta who emerged victorious with a solitary goal from midfielder Iago Aspas in the 45th minute.
The win was a much-needed boost for Celta, who had struggled to find form in the league so far this season. The Galicians have now moved away from the relegation zone and sit in 18th place, three points above the drop zone. However, they will need to continue their good form if they want to avoid being relegated at the end of the season.
Aspas' goal was the result of a well-worked attacking move that saw him pick out his team-mate on the edge of the box. He took advantage of a mistake by the Almerian goalkeeper to fire home from close range, giving Celta a deserved lead.
The win was also a morale-booster for Celta's fans, who had been frustrated by their side's lack of progress in the league. They were given something to cheer about as the game progressed, and the players showed great determination to come back from behind and secure all three points.
Overall, it was a solid performance from Celta, who played well against a tough opponent. With just five games remaining in the season, there is still plenty of football left for them to fight for survival in La Liga.
