A penalty changes the first half

Racing Santander had more possession early, but Celta Vigo took the lead after a handball review resulted in a penalty. Hugo González converted in the 32nd minute to begin a five-goal win for Celta on September 19.

Racing responded soon after the opener when Vicente took a quick free kick won by Iker Luque, trying to catch Celta goalkeeper Radu by surprise. Near halftime, Salinas and Pablo García narrowly missed deliveries into Celta’s penalty area. Moriba scored in the 43rd minute, giving Celta a two-goal lead at the break.

Racing’s changes precede a third Celta goal

Pablo Durán replaced González at halftime. Racing made its own changes just after the hour, bringing on Aarón Martín, Canales and Villalibre and shifting to three central defenders with two wingbacks.

Villalibre put a pass from Iker Luque into the net around the 66th minute, but the goal was ruled out for offside. Celta then extended its lead through Miguel Román in the 68th minute.

Durán scores twice to finish the win

Durán made it 4–0 in the 78th minute. Racing still created chances: Radu saved a Salinas header and an Iván Martín shot, while Guliashvili sent a late overhead attempt over the goal.

Durán scored again in stoppage time, completing his two-goal second half and Celta’s 5–0 victory. Racing’s disallowed effort had come before Celta’s third; the later chances brought no goal for the visitors.
