Espanyol dominates Oviedo but draw doesn't lift either in La Liga
BARCELONA, Spain (AP) --- Espanyol and Real Oviedo drew 1-1 in a game that
extended Espanyol's winless La Liga run to 10 matches and left Oviedo rooted to
the bottom of the table on Monday.
Oviedo came into the game without a win in five but took the lead after eight
minutes through Alberto Reina.
However, Espanyol was on top and got a deserved equalizer nine minutes before
halftime thanks to Kike Garcia.
Espanyol continued to control the play in the second half and finished with 26
shots to Oviedo's six. But neither side could find the net again.
A point was a meagre outcome for both clubs and left Oviedo four points adrift
at the bottom of La Liga.
Espanyol, meanwhile, has yet to win this year but remains in seventh thanks to
a good start to its campaign.
