Valencia are unbeaten in their last five matches at home in La Liga having recorded four draws and one win at Estadio de Mestalla.
"We are very satisfied, I am very happy with the behaviour of the team. We came here with players missing, with players like [Cristiano] Piccini who has not played for a long time, with Hugo Guillamón who returned to central defence," Valencia manager Jose Bordalas said after the win over Celta.
"Today the team were able to suffer and put in a good showing, and this is the image we want to give off. We started in an adverse way with a goal that we practically gave away: Koba wanted to play a nutmeg on the wing, Alderete got overconfident and we were pickpocketed.
"The team knew how to react. We suffered a little more than necessary, but I prefer to focus on the behaviour of the players and I want to congratulate them, as this is the way forward."
