Outstanding performance
Sporting Gijón•MidfielderA tale of two penalties saw Albacete and Sporting Gijón share the spoils in a 1-1 draw that highlighted both teams' mid-table struggles. Jefté Betancor's spot-kick on the stroke of half-time gave the hosts the advantage, but Jonathan Dubasin's equalizer from twelve yards with twelve minutes remaining ensured the points were shared. Both managers made extensive changes throughout the second half, with five substitutions apiece suggesting neither side could find the cutting edge to break the deadlock through open play. The result leaves both teams languishing in the lower half of La Liga 2, with this draw doing little to ease their respective ambitions for a stronger second half of the season.
