Valencia have a mountain to climb against Atalanta in the return leg of the Round of 16 tie of the UEFA Champions League.
They were profligate in front of goal in the first leg at San Siro and now Albert Celades' troops have to make amends for their poor finishing at the Mestalla and that too without the vocal presence of their 12th man. And at such a critical juncture, they have more often than not fallen back on Dani Parejo, their skipper and midfield general.
If Los Che have to progress to the quarter-finals then It would require some amount of individual inspiration from this 30-year old playmaker.
