Valencia cruise past Steau
Uefa Cup holders Valencia cruised past Steaua Bucharest 2-0.
Uefa Cup holders Valencia look in pole position to progress to the competition's last 16 after a comfortable 2-0 win over Steaua Bucharest.Those inside the Mestalla had to wait until 38 minutes before Marco Di Vaio broke the deadlock, when he struck in typically predatory fashion.
Claudio Ranieri's outfit were always in control against their Romanian counterparts and took a two goal advantage seven minutes after the restart courtesy of Pablo Aimar's strike.
The diminutive Argentine looks to have booked Valencia a place in the next round, as Steaua's second half exertions failed to yield any type of consolation.
The Spanish title holders travel to Bucharest next week, where if successful they will face either Dynamo Kiev or Villarreal.
