The arrival of Valencia CF to Gijón has already created a great expectation among the hundreds of supporters who have come to the airport searching for one person alone, David Villa. The one from Tuilla has been welcomed like happened last year in the visit of the Valencian players to the Molinón, where he was welcomed as a local hero.

The amazing love that the Guaje feels for his homeland and its people has always been recognized publicly y have made him a true asturian ambassador in the world, a fact that has not been overseen by the exemplifying supporters from Gijón, that as proof of a great fair play, have opened their arms to welcome their idol, now in enemy lines.

David Villa has lived very special moments and has never lost the chance to greet the collection of friends, family and supporters that have accumulated at the doors of the concentration hotel to show him their affection. Among them, Enrique Castro “Quini” has not missed the chance to greet the Guaje, in a united image of a “striker” of two different times.

In sport terms, however, the admiration and love of the “7” towards the red and white colors aren’t translated into “pity” for them exactly. The guaje has scored four goals in the last three times they have played. Collectively however it is not so good, because the valencians have only won one of the matches against the Gijón team of the last three, it was in the same stadium, but last year with a result of 2-3.

David Villa will fight again to break the two consecutive matches that have passed without him reaching victory away from home, to keep the third position in the league comfortably. The international striker will try to continue with his good individual results and the spectacular battle facing Leo Messi to become the top striker of the league.
