Thousands of fans gathered outside Mestalla Stadium before the match, demanding change, while many others returned after the game to vent their disappointment as the loss placed Valencia at the bottom of La Liga with only one win from ten matches. The match itself saw a bright start for Valencia when Pepelu scored from the penalty spot in the 14th minute, but Las Palmas responded with a goal from Alex Muñoz just before halftime. In the second half, Fábio Silva, on loan from Wolverhampton Wanderers, gave Las Palmas a 2-1 lead, and the defeat left Valencia in a precarious position.

Lim’s tenure has been marred by fan dissatisfaction, and this recent protest only highlights the growing rift between the club's supporters and its ownership.
