Sporting loosens up in the fight for the lead after falling at El Molinón

MADRID, 23 Oct. (EUROPA PRESS) –

Sporting de Gijón will not be immersed this week in the fight for the leadership of the SmartBank League after losing, in El Molinón, at the hands of Real Valladolid, whose streak has put them in playoff positions, while Tenerife achieved a valuable triumph at the expense of a Leganés who is still in trouble in matches on Matchday 12.

David Gallego’s team did not have their best afternoon at home and soon started down on the scoreboard due to an action by Aguado in the 37th minute. The goal knocked out the Asturians, who conceded the second through Silver with 20 minutes to go. The scorer Djurdjevic put emotion at the end with the 1-2, but the scoreboard did not move again. Pacheta’s men are already sixth after their second consecutive win away from home.

For its part, Tenerife forgot their recent ‘mini-crisis’ – Canarian derby included – at the expense of a Leganés who does not know where they come from. The Canaries went ahead with a goal from Eladi, the Madrid people equalized with a good header from Sergio González, who needed four minutes of VAR to be validated, but again Eladi left Asier Garitano’s team in the relegation places to First RFEF to few minutes to 90.

In addition, Malaga won again in the heat of the Rosaleda (1-0) with a goal from Genaro Rodríguez and is already ninth in the table, just two points behind the promotion, and Fuenlabrada lost steam in that same fight by yielding by 3-1 in his visit to the newly promoted Ibiza. Carcedor’s men won with goals from Javi Lara, Goldar and Nono.
