Oviedo’s short step, with a tie that can be worth it

Oviedo, the result of nerves, wasted an opportunity to catch their breath in fifth place but saved a tie that could be decisive. Now that the calculators take center stage, now that each point adds up, the one achieved yesterday by Oviedo against a lively Zaragoza could fit in with their plans to assault the promotion play-off.

The party went crazy from the beginning. Oviedo went ahead from a penalty. Bastón did not miss the opportunity that the VAR gave him for a hand in the visiting area. The Tartiere exploded, aware of the solidity of his people. With this Oviedo one goal may be enough.

But the party was crazy, any previous prediction was useless. Zaragoza turned it around in just 4 minutes. First it was Bermejo who headed in a clearance by Femenías. Then Jay. This one, with a header, in an action from the corner.

It was already clear then that the situation was weighing on Oviedo: playing aware of the results of the rivals, the impossibility of failing and the fear of disappointing.

Obeng reacted to the second. After Cristian frustrated the tie, he did come with a header at 26′. But Zaragoza continued to happily arrive in the Carbayona area. Bermejo and Francho touched the goal, the third, which was the work of Bermejo himself in a rejection after another corner. Although Isaac had a new draw before the break, the feeling in the break was that Oviedo’s legs had shaken, but that he was still alive.

And he held on to the board in the middle of the wreck with force. It was thanks to Brugman, who returned from the break with fresh ideas in mind. 3 minutes after returning, he tried from a distance and nailed a great goal against which Cristian could do nothing.

Oviedo tried, they kept fighting. Azón kissed the post but the clearest was blue. Another penalty. Again by hand. But this time Cristian beat Bastón from eleven meters. The blues looked exhausted, content with the point. Femenías saved a point in a one-on-one that could be worth in carbayones calculations.
