Not saying I'm a curse but apparently just going "Ah good for Zaragoza" at the time page was retroactively a curse weeks ago.

Indeed, they sort of . . . just faded away from the top rankings

Can Sporting beat #21 Sporting finally breaks through at 61'--Gaspar scores and it's 1-0. But at 67', Josep Gayá ties it for Amorebieta--1-1.

But Ferrol can't hold on at 95' or so, Fer Niño scores to tie it for Burgos, and the game ends 1-1. Ferrol is in sixth place with this result, and they'll drop to seventh if Levante wins against Racing Santander on Monday.

Mon. 20 Nov. 2100 Levante 2, Racing Santander 4 #7 hosts #12. Can Levante get back into the fight for promotion A win today would lift Levante into sixth place, ahead of Ferrol on GD. At 11', Oscar Clemente scores for Levante--1-0. At 22', Carlos Arana ties it on a breakaway--1-1. At 45'+3', Iván Romero gives Levante the lead--2-1 at the half. Great first half 12,691 reported on hand. At 51', penalty awarded to Racing; Peque converts at 54', and it's 2-2. At 60', Carlos Arana scores his second of the game to give Racing the lead--2-3. At 71', Peque scores his second of the night--2-4 and Racing looks like a winner . . . If the game ends as it is, Racing will pass Levante on GD and will sleep in seventh place.
