David Villa returned to the Valencia line-up following his European
suspension to help down his former club Real Zaragoza 3-1 and continue
Los Che's fine start to the season.
Villa was banned for Thursday's Europa League trip to Slavia Prague
and without their star striker Valencia were left with egg on their
faces after being held to a 2-2 draw despite leading 2-0 and seeing
their struggling Czech opponents reduced to 10 men just after half-time.
There was no such repeat as captain Villa scored one and set up
another for Pablo Hernandez as fourth-placed Valencia kept on the
coat-tails of big two Barcelona and Real Madrid.
