Unbeatable start of the year for our team. In the first game of 2015, the red and whites were victorious against a feisty Levante at the Vicente Calderon (3-1).
The match began with our team scoring at Mariño’s goal. Griezmann was in charge of opening the scoreboard of 2015 with an accurate header.
Finalmente Godín cerró el marcador tras peinar un centro de Tiago a la salida de un córner.
The second half continued with the same script as the first. The initial thrust was rewarded with the second goal of the game, again, from Griezmann. The French scored a header from a clerarance. Two minutes over the hour played, a shot from Iván López was deflected by El Zhar to tighten the scoreboard. Lastly, Godin closed the game after heading a cross by Tiago from a corner kick.
