Breaking News: Alavés Breaks Five-Game Losing Streak with Narrow Win Over Mallorca
Alavés Triumphs in Closely Contested Match
Spanish football club Alavés has finally broken their five-game losing streak by securing a narrow 1-0 victory over Mallorca in La Liga.
The hard-fought match, held at the Mendizorrotza Stadium, saw Alavés dominate possession and create several scoring opportunities. However, it was Mallorca who came closest to scoring in the first half when Salva Sevilla's shot struck the crossbar.
Late Goal Secures Victory
The decisive moment came in the 75th minute when Alavés midfielder Manu García found the back of the net. García's goal proved to be the winner, giving Alavés their first league victory since mid-February.
Despite Mallorca's late efforts to equalize, Alavés held on to secure the three points. The win marks a significant improvement for the Basque Country club, who had been struggling in recent weeks.
A Return to Form for Alavés
Alavés manager Julio Velázquez expressed his delight at the team's performance, saying: "We played with great intensity and determination today. We created many chances and deserved to win."
The victory is a much-needed boost for Alavés, who are now 16th in the La Liga standings. With eight games remaining, the club will be hoping to continue their positive form and secure their place in the top flight next season.
