The Galician team once again had another poor game. In the second half he gave the ball away to the Granadaand that caused a loud whistle from his fansespecially after Vicente Guaita avoided the tie in the 63rd minute withn a great stop at Lucas Boyéwith whom Bryan Zaragoza had connected after a loss of Bamba in the center of the field.

With his genius, Larsen avoided a match condemned to no combat. Both showed why they occupy relegation positions. Celestes and rojiblancos have a monumental problem generating chances with a combinative game, despite the fact that the young Bryan Zaragozasigned by Bayer Munich, once again left details of his verticality in Balaídos.

He was the one who put the Celta with his speed on the left wing, where created numerous problems for full-back Kevin Vázquez at the start of the second half. In the 59th minute, he almost equalized with a cross shot that went wide by centimeters.
