MADRID, 27 Abr. (EUROPA PRESS) –
CD Leganés, solid leader of LaLiga Hypermotion, has tied (1-1) this Saturday at home against Real Zaragoza, in the course of a 37th matchday where Elche CF and RCD Espanyol have wasted another opportunity to get closer to said leadership after having tied with each other (2-2).
At the Municipal Stadium of Butarque, the locals took the lead in the 57th minute with a goal from Miguel de la Fuente, who headed a Dani Raba cross from the right wing to the near post. However, the skilled team established the final 1-1 thanks to a penalty converted by Maikel Mesa in the ninth minute of the very long added time.
The pepineros now have 64 points, at the top of the Second Division, while two of their pursuers canceled each other out. At the Manuel Martínez Valero Stadium, Javier Puado put Espanyol ahead very early, but Mourad El Ghezouani scored 1-1 in the 12th minute with a powerful left footed shot from the edge of the rival area.
Martin Braithwaite put the Parakeets ahead again in the 71st minute, heading in a cross from Omar El Hilali, and John Donald sealed the 2-2 in the 81st minute. This result left the Elche natives with 58 points, in the fifth position and just behind Espanyol, which now has 60 points.
Furthermore, SD Amorebieta tied (2-2) on their visit to Burgos CF and could not escape relegation, based on their current 38 points. The Burgos team, with 54, is still eagerly looking up, since sixth place is occupied by Racing de Santander with 55 points.
