Late winner gives Valencia three points

Valencia came back from a goal down to beat Granada 2-1 in this evening's La Liga clash.

Granada suffered a huge setback on 34 minutes when Mikel Rico was given his second yellow card to leave the side with ten men.

Valencia began to push forward and Pablo Piatti came close with an effort before Adil Rami missed another chance before half time.

After 50 minutes, Brayan Angulo gave the home side a surprise lead against the run of play to stun Valencia.

Valencia found an equaliser ten minutes later through Jonas, who headed in Piatti's cross to make it 1-1.

The away side continued to push for a winner and got in front after 82 minutes through Piatti, who finished well after some great work by Robert Soldado.

Soldado almost made it three in injury time, but was denied by the woodwork.
