Real Madrid suffered their first defeat following Zinedine Zidane's return as coach as they were beaten 2-1 away to Valencia on Wednesday night.

Zidane brought Luka Modric, Casemiro, Lucas Vazquez and Keylor Navas back into his side, but despite seeing a lot of the ball Madrid were second best to a rival that is now unbeaten in 17 games.

Goncalo Guedes put Valencia ahead in the first half and could have had a second but for a good save from Navas.

Madrid looked for a way through after the break, but failed to break down a well-drilled home side, who doubled their lead thanks to Ezequiel Garay's powerful header from a corner seven minutes from the end.

Karim Benzema put come makeup on the score with a header in the 93rd minute, but there was no time left for Madrid and Valencia are looking solid in fifth, just a point behind Getafe.

There was drama in San Mames where Iker Muniain scored an injury time penalty to give Athletic Club Bilbao their third consecutive win with a 3-2 triumph over Levante.

Athletic dominated the first half and led 2-0 through goals from Yuri and Inaki Williams, but Roger Marti netted a 51st minute penalty to get Levante back into the game and Erick Cabaco netted an 89th minute header which looked as if it would assure a share of the points.

There was more tension ahead however, as Muniain was brought down at the other end and kept his nerve to give Athletic a vital win as they look to qualify for Europe next season.

There were thrills in Huesca as well as the home side fought back from 2-0 down to go 3-2 up with 15 minutes remaining before Celta claimed an 81st minute equalizer in a 3-3 draw which keeps Huesca bottom of the table, and Celta third from bottom.

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Brais Mendez and Iago Aspas had put Celta 2 goals up, but Enrich Gallego, Chimy Avila and Jorge Pulido looked as if they were going to spring a shock until Ryad Boudebouz levelled the score, although Gallego missed an incredible chance to win it for Huesca in the 93rd minute.

Things look bleak for Rayo Vallecano as they slipped to a 2-1 defeat away to Eibar: Charles and Pedro Leon scored the goal which cancelled out Jose Pozo's opener for he visitors and mean Rayo have taken just one point from a possible 27.

The round of games kicked off on Tuesday with league leaders FC Barcelona surrendering a 2-0 lead, before then scoring 2 late goals to claim a 4-4 win in a chaotic and highly entertaining game away to Villarreal.

Atletico Madrid closed Barca's lead at the top of the table to eight points as goals from Diego Godin and Antoine Griezmann gave them a 2-0 win at home to Girona, while Espanyol and Getafe drew 1-1 in Barcelona.

Thursday sees games between Real Sociedad and Betis, Sevilla and Alaves and Leganes and Valladolid.

Escape Route: Sierra de Guadarrama

To quote Bjork, “It’s all so quiet.” Craning my neck to better view the clutch of griffon vultures circling overhead, my shoulder relax and a deep sigh escapes my throat. Just a two-hour flight from London and a short hop from Madrid and the world of work and every day stress feels so far behind. We’ve a whole mountain to ourselves and it’s heavenly.

The Sierra de Guadarrama, just 50km to the north of Spain’s bustling capital, is a 24,000 hectare playground filled with jagged peaks, juniper groves, Scots pine and Pyrenean oak forests. Recently designated a National Park, it’s home to an extraordinary array of wildlife including wildcats, boar, ibex, eagles and even wolves, in fact it’s so densely populated with creatures that its animal inhabitants represent 45% of the overall fauna of Spain. But even more exciting than its ecological diversity, the remarkable tranche of land is absolutely filled to bursting with scarcely ridden singletrack, and of course that’s why we’re here.

Our aim is to pack as much riding as we can into a weekend; a whistle-stop tour made possible thanks to cheap flights and Madrid’s transport links. To get the most out of our short trip, we’ve enlisted the help of local guide Emilio from Black Town Trails, as well as Santa Cruz rider Iago Garay who grew up riding the area with his dad and still lives nearby.

Fresh from the airport, we waste no time in getting in the saddle, beginning with a short but technical climb out of Hoyo de Manzanares, a small town in the Regional Park of the Manzanares River Upper Basin. We pedal our way past low trees overshadowed by the huge granite boulders that are a symbol of the town, trying to persuade our sleeping quadriceps to fire up. Soon, heavy breathing and the odd wheeze punctuate the silence; the Sierra de Hoyo is not an especially easy first ascent and these are not manicured trails.

Invigorated by the climb, I follow Iago up and over the grippy and abrasive rocks and through sandy canyons filled with loose boulders to one of the highest points in the area, the Mirador de Hoyo. The views are spectacular. The landscape somehow reminds me of a spaghetti western, but actually forms part of a network of trails in use since medieval times by shepherds and their nimble footed herds moving between Segovia and Madrid. With so many different tracks and no clear lines, it’s a short but intensely fun Freeride paradise, which we make the most of in the sun. Never once seeing another rider or even anyone on foot, when we reach the bottom we run short laps till we tire and grow hungry. Hastily assembled sandwiches in the back of the van see us through to our next destination, San Lorenzo de El Escorial.

Lying at the southwestern end of the Sierra, El Escorial is a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 16thcentury, the site at the bottom of Mount Abantos ishome to a royal palace, a vast monastery, and one of the best-stocked libraries in the world. Everything is on an immense scale and as impressive as it was obviously intended to be when commissioned by the King of Spain.

We walk through a vast square in front of the monastery, an icy chill sweeping through the town – it’s still early in the year and this part of Spain doesn’t warm up as quickly as the Costas. Thoughts turn to food and drink, as they often do on riding trips. Iago has foreseen this happening and whisks us off to experience a regional favourite, churros and chocolate. We happily dunk strips of hot fried dough into thick, silky hot chocolate then pile back into the van for our short journey home to the Black Town Trails lodge.

The next day dawns and we make short work of our porridge and eggs, keen to explore another part of the National Park. From our base in Collado Mediano we’re in the perfect position to explore the vast networks of trails that begin right outside the door and extend for many miles in every direction. Over coffee, I quiz Iago on how many kilometres of trails there are to ride in the vicinity. He looks confused. “The trails are unlimited. You can ride everywhere,” he chuckles. “The climbs and descents are as long or as short as you want them to be,” adds Felix.

To get a good overview of what’s on offer we jump in the van and drive to one of Emilio’s favourite spots, Moralzarzal which is also home to Iago’s ultra laid back Enduro Fun Festival which takes place the next day. We’ve been told that the terrain in the area varies wildly from one place to the next and when we emerge from the van we’re duly greeted with a vastly different landscape to that of yesterday. True, the rocks are still present, but rather than a sparse, somewhat desert like expanse of canyons and boulders, Moralzarzal is densely wooded with loam, mud, sand and smooth rocks to navigate.

The whole area is liberally sprinkled with singletrack, all of it accessed by an easy climb up a fire road. At the front of the mountain directly above the town, several clearly defined tracks twist their way through the pine trees. The ground underfoot keeps us on our toes, switching between slop, loam, grit, rocks and mud every hundred metres or so. By the bottom we’re grinning from ear to ear.

Yesterday’s chill has persisted and it’s snowing slightly – something I hadn’t bargained for when I came to Spain – but though seriously underdressed, we’re unperturbed by a few solitary flakes dancing around our heads. We pedal around the mountain and up to the top, a 30-minute easy ascent up to around 1300 metres, which has the dual benefit of warming us through and allowing glimpses of the vertical peaks rising in the distance. I’m told the Spanish word ‘sierra’ actually means ‘saw’ which makes sense when I see the jagged teeth of the range.

Nearing the summit, we drop over the back of the mountain to enjoy a long trail with about 1500m of descent that plows straight over slab rock, between tight trees and across open meadows to finish up weaving between the blackberry bushes from which Moralzarzal derives its name. We can’t resist adding in a trail nicknamed Trail to Hell,’ which winds up being nothing of the sort, unless your idea of hell its blasting down some flowing singletrack through abandoned quarries.

Limbs loudly complaining about the thrashing we’ve given them over the last couple of days, we call time on riding and roll down into the town of Moralzarzal, immediately below where we’ve been riding. It’s a fairly traditional town complete with a bullring, in fact the town is fairly well known for its town’s weeklong fiesta and encierros, or bull runs each summer – something I vehemently object to. Thankfully, our destination is not the bullring but a Tapas restaurant just behind, where we enjoy a fantastic meal washed down with some good Rioja.

A restorative sleep later, we’re sufficiently recharged to give Iago’s Enduro race a bash before flying home. Unfortunately, the weather has taken a turn for the worse and the snow has meant one stage has been cancelled. Felix personally apologises for the weather, telling me “it’s very unusual; that the weather it generally so good that I don’t ride if the sun is not shining.” Unperturbed, we slither down a couple of extremely fun, smiles emblazoned on our faces. We’re happy to be riding rather than stuck in the office, so snow or not, no apologies are needed.

The local – Iago Garay:

“I’m, not here that much anymore but I love to ride here with my Dad when I’m back. Although he steals my bikes when I’m away!”

Local rider, Iago Garay grew up around an hour away from the Sierra de Guadarrama, heading away from the plains and into the hills with his Father as a young boy. Now travelling the world racing Enduro for Santa Cruz, when he’s home he bases himself twenty minutes from both the mountains and the city to enjoy the best of both worlds. For Iago, there’s no place like home, not least because he often has the whole place to himself – the Sierra de Guadarrama has yet to attract riders from the rest of Spain.

“No one except locals ride here,” says Iago. “People think of Madrid as a flat place, and yes, it’s flat, but half an hour away you have magic mountains. People do come to ride La Pinilla, the bike park that my father used to manage, but they don’t really come here; it’s just us, the hikers and runners and the horse riders.”

One event that does see crowds flock to the area is Enduro Fun Festival, organised by Iago and his father. Now in its third year, the three event series provides a positive and friendly initiation into the world of racing, with tracks that are designed to be manageable for all levels of rider and a strong emphasis on fun.

FACTS:

Though home to hundreds of miles of singletrack, the Sierra de Guadarrama is little known outside of Spain where it’s a much-loved destination for the inhabitants of Madrid. The terrain is hugely varied, with ample scope for long days in the saddle exploring far flung corners of the range. The locals have shaped the odd trail, but the vast majority of routes are entirely natural and untouched.

Just over the other side of the Sierra de Guadarrama, La Pinilla Bikepark has a chairlift and a wide selection of trails and jumps. Open throughout the summer, it also opens at the weekend in Winter, weather dependent.

Travel: Many low cost airlines fly to Madrid, with flights costing from £30 and taking around two hours. It takes 40 minutes from the airport to the Sierra de Guadarrama, mainly on fast moving highways.

Accommodation: I stayed with BlackTown Trails, who offer holidays all year round from their base in Collado Mediano. Five nights accommodation in the four star BlackTown Chalet costs 795 Euros. The price includes four days guiding, all meals and airport transfers. All levels of riding can be accommodated.

60cm:Santa Cruz Megatower first ride review

Santa Cruz's Megatower is an aggressive-sounding name for an aggressive-riding bike. It’s clearly a reference to the brand’s Hightower platform, which also sports 29-inch wheels and has thus far been the race bike of choice for Santa Cruz’s EWS racers, Iago Garay and Mark Scott. But really, the new bike is better thought of as a 29er version of the Nomad.

Best mountain bike: how to choose the right one for you

Santa Cruz Bronson CC X01+ Reserve review

When Santa Cruz launched the Nomad version 4 back in 2017, many of us were wondering why, with the Santa Cruz Syndicate already racing 29er downhill bikes, the Nomad wasn’t available as a 29er.

EWS racers underlined our point by largely choosing to race on an over-shocked version of the Hightower. These bikes then evolved into the Hightower LT, which uses a longer stroke shock and a different swing arm to deliver more travel, and which Garay and Scott have favoured at the EWS ever since.

That looks set to change with the Megatower. It sports 160mm of travel at both ends, with a lower-link-driven suspension layout that closely mirrors that of the Nomad.

The Megatower’s geometry appears to have copied the Nomad’s homework too, with similar head angle and reach numbers, which are significantly more modern than the Hightower LT.

Prediksi bola Espanyol vs Valencia betting skor bola 26 Agustus 2018

New Post has been published on http://gogoworld.org/prediksi-bola-espanyol-vs-valencia-betting-skor-bola-26-agustus-2018/

Prediksi bola Espanyol vs Valencia betting skor bola 26 Agustus 2018

Prediksi bola Espanyol vs Valencia betting skor bola 26 Agustus 2018 – Prediksi Espanyol vs Valencia untuk pertandingan Minggu ini di La Liga saat Los Che mencari kemenangan pertama mereka di Barcelona. Baca terus untuk tips dan prediksi taruhan gratis kami.

Pertandingan awal Minggu ini di La Liga berasal dari Barcelona di mana Espanyol mengambil alih Valencia. Kedua belah pihak membuka musim dengan hasil yang dapat dikreditkan akhir pekan lalu dan akan mencari untuk membangun hasil tersebut di sini. Para bandar judi membuat Valencia sedikit favorit untuk mendapatkan kemenangan karena mereka menargetkan finish empat besar lainnya.

Tingkat ekspektasi tentu lebih tinggi musim ini di Mestalla tetapi ada alasan bagus untuk itu dan ada banyak hal positif untuk diambil saat mereka memulai musim dengan hasil imbang 1-1 melawan Atletico Madrid. Rodrigo menjaringkan leveler Babak Kedua untuk Los Che dalam pertandingan itu dan mereka sekarang menghadapi pertandingan tandang secara back-to-back sebelum jeda internasional berakhir pekan depan dengan derby di Levante.

Prediksi bola Espanyol vs Valencia betting skor bola 26 Agustus 2018

Espanyol berada di bawah manajemen baru musim ini dengan Rubi di pucuk pimpinan. Dia membimbing Huesca untuk promosi musim lalu tetapi mengambil alih dari David Gallego, yang melakukan pekerjaan luar biasa sebagai bos penjaga Espanyol pada akhir kampanye sebelumnya. Itu adalah awal yang solid bagi orang-orang Rubi saat mereka bermain imbang 1-1 untuk Celta Vigo pada akhir pekan pembukaan.

Mereka mungkin melakukannya dengan baik untuk mendukungnya di sini. Celta adalah tim lain yang membangun kembali di bawah manajemen baru tetapi Valencia adalah tim yang cukup mapan sekarang dan mereka harus mampu mencocokkan apa yang mereka lakukan musim lalu. Oleh karena itu, ini adalah pertandingan yang jauh lebih ketat untuk Espanyol, yang mencoba mencari cara untuk mengatasi tanpa Gerard Moreno, satu-satunya ancaman gol yang dapat diandalkan musim lalu dengan 16 gol.

Espanyol adalah pencetak gol terbanyak keempat La Liga bahkan dengan striker yang mengesankan di barisan mereka dan Anda harus mengkhawatirkan mereka sedikit di musim ini. Valencia seharusnya tidak memiliki kekhawatiran seperti itu dalam hal itu. Simone Zaza telah meninggalkan pinjaman tetapi mereka masih memiliki Rodrigo dan Santi Mina di bagian atas ditambah dua tambahan menyerang yang sangat baik dalam bentuk Kevin Gameiro dan Michy Batshuayi.

Mereka memiliki daya tembak yang cukup di sini untuk menimbulkan masalah besar bagi pertahanan Espanyol ini dan mereka masih berharap untuk mendorong melalui kesepakatan untuk Gonçalo Guedes, yang unggul dipinjamkan ke Mestalla pada musim lalu. Dengan kualitas yang mereka miliki, sulit untuk melihat Valencia menjadi musim keajaiban dan mereka umumnya menikmati hidup melawan oposisi ini dan mereka sebenarnya menargetkan kemenangan beruntun keenam melawan Espanyol di sini.

Dukungan keseluruhan Valencia Draw No Bet terlihat bagus dengan kebijakan asuransi ide cerdas yang diberikan Espanyol telah menarik 5 dari 10 pertandingan liga kandang terakhir mereka.

HEAD TO HEAD

Valencia telah memenangkan 5 pertemuan terakhir. Semua dari 3 pertemuan terakhir telah melihat mereka menang hingga nol.

ESPANYOL VS VALENCIA STATS

Valencia telah mengalahkan Espanyol di 78 pertandingan secara keseluruhan dan 23 di kandang, keduanya paling untuk Che melawan lawan di La Liga.

Valencia hanya kalah dalam dua dari delapan pertandingan terakhir mereka jauh dari rumah di Liga Spanyol (W4 D2), tetapi mereka menang hanya dalam satu dari empat pertandingan terakhir (D1 L2): 1-0 di Girona pada bulan Mei.

Sergio García telah memainkan 19 pertandingan liga vs Valencia dan telah terlibat dalam sepuluh gol (lima gol & lima assist) melawan mereka, yang paling melawan setiap sisi dalam karirnya di La Liga.

Iago Aspas (22 gol) adalah satu-satunya pemain Spanyol yang mencetak lebih dari Rodrigo Moreno (17, sebagai Gerard Moreno) di La Liga sejak musim lalu.

Manajer Espanyol saat ini, Rubi, telah mengawasi 50 pertandingan di La Liga (W11 D13 L26), memenangkan hanya 22% dari permainan ini (11 dari 50).

Marcelino García Toral, manajer Valencia, telah kehilangan dua dari 14 pertemuannya vs Espanyol di La Liga (W8 D4), keduanya di rumah: 0-3 untuk Villarreal pada April 2015 dan 0-1 untuk Recreativo pada Mei 2007.

BERITA TIM ESPANYOL

Espanyol kemungkinan tidak akan berubah. Borja Iglesias harus memimpin garis lagi saat ia menargetkan gol pertamanya untuk klub barunya.

BERITA TIM VALENCIA

Bek tengah Ezequiel Garay adalah keraguan cedera. Kevin Gameiro dan Michy Batshuayi berharap untuk mengambil tempat Santi Mina di depan.

El Valencia busca reencontrarse con el triunfo ante un Celta motivado

El Valencia y el Celta se miden en Mestalla en un encuentro marcado por la necesidad del equipo valenciano de reencontrarse con el triunfo y por la motivación del conjunto gallego tras su empate a domicilio en el campo del líder Barcelona.

Ambos equipos han conseguido protagonizar las dos últimas pérdidas de puntos del conjunto catalán, ya que antes del 2-2 del Celta en el Camp Nou, el Valencia había igualado a uno en Mestalla ante el conjunto de Ernesto Valverde.

Sin embargo, la derrota valencianista en su último partido, en Getafe, donde perdió por primera vez en esta temporada, hace que el conjunto del Marcelino García Toral necesite reengancharse a la dinámica de victorias ante un rival que tiene una oportunidad de dar un importante paso adelante si gana o suma en Mestalla.

El técnico no ha podido recuperar al central argentino Ezequiel Garay y su ausencia se une a las del portugués Gonçalo Guedes y el colombiano Jeison Murillo, aunque sí estará en condiciones de jugar el centrocampista Carlos Soler a pesar de los problemas físicos sufridos como consecuencia de un golpe en Getafe.

La gran novedad es la presencia del centrocampista Ferrán Torres, que tras debutar con el primer equipo en el último partido de Copa, ha sido convocado, a sus 17 años, por primera vez para una citación de partido de Liga. El único descarte técnico es el de Robert Ibáñez.

Con estos condicionantes, no parece previsible que Marcelino revolucione la alineación respecto a los últimos choques en el encuentro en el que volverá al banquillo tras haber cumplido una sanción de dos encuentros, ante el Barcelona y el Getafe, como consecuencia de su expulsión hace tres jornadas ante el Espanyol.

La principal preocupación la tiene el técnico asturiano en el eje de la zaga, donde no tiene alternativas a la pareja formada por Gabriel Paulista y Rubén Vezo.

En el resto de las posiciones parece seguro que con Neto en la portería los laterales volverán a ser para Montoya y Gayà, con Parejo y Kondogbia en el centro de la medular.

Si es así, Soler, que en la segunda mitad ante el Getafe jugó en el centro al ser sustituido Kondogbia, pasará a la banda derecha y Andreas Pereira estará en la izquierda, con Zaza y Rodrigo como pareja en ataque.

El Celta tratará de refrendar su buen momento de juego y resultados para continuar con su escalada en la clasificación, y terminar, de paso, de engancharse a la pelea por los puestos europeos.

El empate frente al Barça ha supuesto una inyección de moral para el equipo dirigido por Juan Carlos Unzué, que recupera para este partido al lateral izquierdo Jonny pero pierde a dos titulares en el Camp Nou, el central Sergi Gómez y el centrocampista Jozabed Sánchez.

El primero estará de baja alrededor de tres semanas debido a una luxación en su hombro derecho, mientras que el segundo cumplirá en Mestalla su primer ciclo de tarjetas amarillas cuando se había hecho con un hueco en el equipo titular.

Unzué tendrá que elegir entre dar continuidad en el once a Brais Méndez, quien destacó en Barcelona, o situar en la medular al chileno Tucu Hernández, que ha pasado de ser indiscutible con Berizzo a verse últimamente en el banquillo.

El regreso de Jonny al lateral izquierdo devolverá al capitán Hugo Mallo al costado derecho y al danés Daniel Wass al centro del campo, que completarán Lobotka por dentro y Pione Sisto en el extremo izquierdo, con Iago Aspas actuando por detrás del uruguayo Maxi Gómez, que sigue disfrutando de minutos pese a que su futuro parece estar en la Superliga de China a partir de enero.

Sin el lesionado Sergi Gómez, en el centro de la zaga actuarán Cabral y Fontás, pues el argentino Roncaglia todavía está lejos de su mejor nivel al superar recientemente la lesión muscular que le mantuvo inactivo cerca de dos meses.

Alineaciones probables

Valencia: Neto, Montoya, Vezo, Paulista, Gayá, Carlos Soler, Parejo, Kondogbia, Andreas Pereira, Rodrigo y Zaza.

Celta: Rubén Blanco, Hugo Mallo, Cabral, Fontás, Jonny, Wass, Lobotka, Hernández o Brais, Pione Sisto, Iago Aspas y Maxi Gómez.

Árbitro: Munuera Montero (Comité Andaluz).

Estadio: Mestalla.

Hora: 20:45.

El Valencia busca recuperar sensaciones ante el Celta

Mestalla se volverá a vestir de gala para el partido de la décimoquinta jornada de la Liga Santander (sábado, 20:45 horas) que enfrentará al Valencia frente al siempre complicado Celta, que llega henchido de moral tras su empate en el Camp Nou.

El equipo che, tras su primer tropiezo de la temporada en Getafe, busca redimirse ante su afición que confía en que su equipo recupere el pulso de la cabeza del campeonato. Para ello, Marcelino García Toral volverá a alinear a toda la artillería disponible, teniendo en cuenta sus problemas en el centro de la defensa, en la que Murillo sigue de baja y Garay no llega a tiempo para su recuperación. El equipo valencianista está también notando la baja del que seguramente ha sido la sensación del campeonato liguero en el primer cuarto de campeonato, el portugués Gonçalo Guedes. Lo normal es que el técnico asturiano vuelva a apostar por el mismo once que alineó en el sur de Madrid, con Gabriel Paulista y Rubén Vezo, sus dos centrales disponibles y la inclusión de Andreas Pereira, por delante de Gayá.

El Celta, por su parte, llega fuerte tras su empate en Barcelona, donde dejó muy buena imagen y obtuvo un punto de prestigio. Juan Carlos Unzúe no podrá contar con Jozabed, por acumulación de amonestaciones y lo normal sería que apostase para la sala de máquinas por Lobotka, ya asentado en el punto, y el Tucu Hernández. El técnico del equipo celeste recupera a Jonny, por lo que podrá recomponer su defensa habitual.

Duelo de goleadores

Se espera un partido abierto, vistoso y probablemente con goles al encontrarse dos de los mejores artilleros del campeonato, el italiano Simone Zaza y el uruguayo Maxi Gómez, perfectamente flanqueados por dos de las alternativas de Julen Lopetegui para la lista del Mundial, como son Rodrigo Moreno y Iago Aspas, que llega en un momento dulce de forma.

Onces probables:

Valencia: Neto; Montoya, Gabriel, Vezo, Gayá; Kondogbia, Parejo, Andreas Pereira, Carlos Soler; Rodrigo y Zaza.

Celta: Rubén; Hugo Mallo, Cabral, Fontás, Jonny; Lobotka, Tucu Hernández, Wass, Pione Sisto; Aspas y Maxi Gómez.
