Neither of the teams have had a positive start to the domestic campaign, but it was the home side who snatched the opportunity pick up nail-biting three points, and climb out of the drop zone. The home side paved their way to better chances in a rough first half with seasoned midfielder Sergio Guardiola heading against the crossbar before the break.
Even after facing a flurry of misses after the restart, Juan José Rojo Martín’s side continued to struggle against the opponent and be the winner in the closing stages, as Israeli international Shon Weissman took a shot on a long ball into the box to poke home the clincher in additional time.
