Celta Vigo 2:2 Académico Viseu FC — Match Report

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

A cagey 2-2 draw saw Celta Vigo and Académico Viseu FC share the spoils in this Club Friendly, with a late flurry of goals denying either side a win and no next fixture to set up. The match lacked competitive edge in the first half, but exploded into life in the final ten minutes after a largely uneventful run of play.

Hugo González opened the scoring for Celta in the 9th minute, but the game drifted until Soufiane Messeguem levelled for Académico Viseu in the 88th minute. Ferran Jutglà then restored Celta's lead in the 90th minute, only for Académico Viseu to snatch an equaliser with virtually the last kick of the game, also in the 90th minute, in a dramatic turnaround.

The statistics told a tale of parity in possession at 50% each, though Celta dominated territory with three corners to none, suggesting they pushed forward more without reward. Nils Mortimer was the standout performer for Académico Viseu, earning an 8.28 rating from midfield despite not scoring, his influence on the ball key to his side's late fightback.
