Dani Gómez rescues a point with a stroke of fortune

In full failures I received the Levante al Spanish in the City of Valencia, sin Jose Luis Morales and with George Fruits as a flag, in a key meeting to keep the fireworks of hope burning. The dominion and occasions of those of Alessio Lisci were not translated into tangible facts and Puado, shortly after the start of the second half, in two touches, he punished the back of the granota defense and the aspirations of permanence. A setback that for a time gripped Levante. However, a stroke of luck in the form of an injury to Diego López completely changed the script of the match. His replacement, the young John Garcia, he ate a warm ball from the left for Dani Gómez to set the Ciutat de València on fire. Precisely the striker from Madrid claimed a penalty in the last minutes, but Diaz DeMera, what despaired everyone with their decisionsdid not indicate a maximum penalty that would have made the Orriols feud explode.

After a few minutes of trial and error, without a clear dominator, Levante, led by Pepelu, began to take the pulse of the game. Granota football, despite his 23 years, revolves around the figure of the Denia midfielder, who dresses better in midfield with two companions as Melero and Bardhi. Between the three they dominated the ball and deactivated the midfield of an Espanyol in which only Darder shed some light when proposing. Even RDT, that disturbed when he took the ball, he was far from his zone of influence and extremely watched by the three central defenders, especially Róber Pier.

Levante, meanwhile, had a hard time connecting with De Frutosmore focused than usual due to the absence of Morales, who despaired at each unchecking unread by his own. Levante’s plays, which were cooked from the center, became dangerous when the ball got closer to the lime. Marc Pubill and Son did not stop percussing on their sides, even the clearest of the first half was signed by the youth side, rejected from the parakeet quarry for being short (now he measures about 1.90). The balls, yes, crashed into the parakeet wall, well planted in two lines in front of Diego López’s goal.

Two touches were enough for Espanyol, yes, to change the trend. After leaving the locker room, Darde looked up, read Puado’s uncheck, which he defined crossed against Cárdenas. In this way, the game became a continuous street runner, despite the fact that Espanyol did not stray one iota from the established plan: defend together to bite the counterattack.

Alessio Lisci, forced to offer something else, put three changes in one go to recover the sensations of the first half. Campaign, Vezo and Franquesa, to the field. In those, with Levante more overturned, Vilhena appeared out of nowhere to crash a ball into the wood of Cardenas. Those of Vicente Moreno began to play with time and with the desperation of a Levante come to lessalso betting on the speed of Vidal and Embarba to exploit the spaces that, over time, would appear due to the needs of Granotas. The setback, however, came with the injury of Diego López, already afflicted from the first half, by the young Joan García.

Precisely the homegrown goalkeeper brought Levante to life. After handling the ball from side to side, the ball fell to Franquesa in the left sector and His center was eaten by Diego López’s substitute so that Dani Gómez could score at will. A gift that completely changed the script of the meeting.

The party went crazy. Everything happened in one of the halves of the field, that of Espanyol. Even Dani Gómez vehemently demanded a penalty before discount. In the end, there was no reward for Levante’s insistence that locked the Blue and Whites in their area during the six long minutes of added time.
