Spain: Luis Castro’s Levante let victory slip away in the 90+4 mi….

A bucket of cold water for Luís Castro’s Levante, who were winning at Rayo Vallecano’s ground until the 90+4 minute, but saw their opponent, reduced to ten men, equalize 1-1 in the final moments of the game that concluded the 28th round of the Spanish league.

Luís Castro’s team started the game setting the pace, imposing a much higher intensity than the home team until they scored in the 41st minute. A wide cross from Losada on the right found Espi, who burst in near the far post to head the ball into the net.

Right at the start of the second half, Nobel Mendy received a second yellow card, leaving Rayo with ten men, but it was from then on that Luís Castro’s team faced more difficulties in the game.

Even reduced to ten men, Rayo never gave up; on the contrary, they forced their opponents to retreat completely. When it seemed that Levante would return home with three precious points, the home team equalized, with full-back Pathe Ciss receiving the ball on his chest and firing past Ryan.

With this result, Rayo remains in 13th place with 32 points, while Levante continues below the relegation zone with only 23.
