The 2021-22 campaign was a season of agonising cup final heartbreak for Valencia CF, as Los Che reached the Copa del Rey Final but were narrowly defeated by Real Betis on penalties. Spearheading the charge was the prolific partnership of Gonçalo Guedes and Carlos Soler, who both netted 11 vital goals in the league as the team finished 9th in La Liga. It was a year that showcased the club's enduring cup passion and remains a memorable, though painful, chapter in Los Che's modern history.
