Espanyol draws again as winless run grows to 16 games
MADRID (AP) --- Espanyol's winless run extended to 16 games after drawing at
home with Levante 0-0 in La Liga on Monday.
Manolo Gonzalez's side was poor in a match against the league's
second-from-bottom club.
Visiting Levante had the better of the exchanges and Espanyol's Marko Dmitrovic
was by far the busier of the two goalkeepers, and he was lucky that a fierce
late strike from Tyrhys Dolan came back off the bar after it slipped through
his hands.
Espanyol was not helped by the late dismissal of Pol Lozano, who received two
yellow cards in two minutes. The midfielder replaced Urko Gonzalez in the 85th
minute but was back in the changing rooms three minutes later after committing
two silly fouls.
The draw means Espanyol has not picked up three points since Dec. 28 when it
beat Athletic Bilbao.
Levante was two points from safety.
Only six points separate the nine teams from 11th to 19th place.
