From tie to tie, Espanyol moves away from Primera. runs with too slow the blue and white team and is condemning itself to fighting for promotion, which will require an additional effort and an uncertain prognosis due to the image it is giving. He had a great opportunity in Valladolid to grab the option of direct promotion and he missed it. Espanyol did nothing, absolutely nothing, to close the gap with the second, momentary leader while Leganés does not play.
He took a point, as usual -oeighth draw in the last ten games, 17 in the entire League-, and bordered the border of defeat due to the chances wasted by Valladolid. He shot on goal for the first time in the 93rd minute in a direct free kick taken by Pere Milla. Jordi Masip, who had already broken Pucelano’s unbeaten record, and was bored and idle, deflected for a corner. Braithwaite, in the 98th minute, shot directly wide.

Penalty disallowed, penalty simulated
The footballers went to the corner where the fans were, and together they celebrated that Espanyol remained undefeated for another week, in the lead, with that draw that acquired the category of good after Nico Melamed saw the second yellow card for simulating a penalty. A few seconds had passed after a long stoppage due to the review of a penalty called by the terrible Cordero Vega which, after being reviewed, was denied to Valladolid.
The second half couldn’t have been worse than the initial episode, bad in solemnity, riddled with fouls, probably due to the tension of the moment of the competition. It would not be because of Cornellà’s quarrels because five months later only five parrots and two pucelanos repeated in the starting eleven. The crashes left two injured, including Jofre. The first half was extended for seven more minutes, and until added time there were no shots on goal, both from Valladolid; Only one deserved the easy intervention of Joan Garcia.
But yeah, the second part was just as horrible.with skirmishes, with simulations, with injuries (Gragera fell), although the ball got closer to the areas with crosses. Salazar was unable to resolve an action against Joan García and then Negredo sent a ball into the clouds with everything in his favor, meaning that Valladolid also saw its winning streak deservedly interrupted.
