Ghanaian defender Joseph Aidoo enjoyed his first full 90 minutes in La Liga since returning from injury, helping Celta Vigo to a resounding 4-1 victory over Valencia at the Balaidos on Saturday.
Aidoo, sidelined for nearly a year with an anterior cruciate ligament injury, anchored Celta’s three-man defence, flanked by Javi Rodriguez and ex-Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso. The 27-year-old’s composed performance was key to the Sky Blues’ defensive solidity.
Borja Iglesias opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 33rd minute before doubling the lead on the hour mark. Valencia briefly halved the deficit through Pepelu in the 70th minute, but Hugo Alvarez sealed the emphatic win deep into stoppage time.
The full game marks Aidoo’s second La Liga appearance this season, adding to his two outings in the Copa del Rey, signaling a promising return to top-flight action for the Ghanaian international.
