Villarreal draws late to claim 4th in Spain
Published in Ahram Online on 22 - 11 - 2015

Villarreal scored late to salvage a 1-1 draw at home with Eibar that lifted it into fourth place in the Spanish league on Sunday.
At the other end of the standings, Deyverson scored twice in Levante's 3-0 win at Sporting Gijon to move the team off the bottom of table.
In a match that both Villarreal and Eibar finished with 10 men, left back Jaume Costa received Denis Suarez's through-ball and poked home Villarreal's equalizer off the post with five minutes left.
Sergi Enrich gave Eibar the lead in the 27th minute, following a tribute before kickoff to the victims of the Paris terrorist attacks. The French anthem was played, while a large monitor displayed the message ''We Are All France'' in Spanish at El Madrigal Stadium.
Eibar had a great chance to double its advantage in the 43rd, but goalkeeper Alphonse Areola saved Dani Garcia's penalty kick following a foul by Costa in the area.
Villarreal was hit by two injuries in defense. Eric Bailly was carried off with his neck in a brace in the 33rd. His replacement, Daniele Bonera, had to be substituted in the 63rd, leaving the hosts with 10 men as their three changes had already been made.
Eibar, which remained in sixth place, was left a man down in the 77th when Sergio ''Keko'' Gontan earned a second booking for a handball.
Villarreal moved above Celta Vigo and into Spain's last Champions League spot, but its players lamented not getting the win.
''It's a pity because we were convinced of the importance of taking all three points,'' Costa said.
Deyverson opened the scoring for Levante in the 18th and added another just before halftime after Zouhair Feddal had doubled the lead in the 27th. Goalkeeper Ruben Martinez also saved a penalty to keep a clean sheet.
It was Levante's first win in three matches under new coach Joan Ferrer.
Later Sunday, Atletico Madrid seeks a win at Real Betis to move ahead of crosstown rival Real Madrid and take over second place after leader Barcelona routed Madrid 4-0 on Saturday.
Athletic Bilbao also visits Granada.
