RC Celta and Leganés managed a goalless draw in Balaídos. The sky blue team was the clear dominator of the clash and had the best chances, although bad luck kept it from scoring a goal.
The match began with a RC Celta in rival field, moving the ball fluidly and approaching the away area. Maxi Gomez had the first chance of the match at the eleven minutes mark and shortly after Boufal claimed a penalty that was not given by the referee.
The second half followed the same dynamic. The sky-blue team took total control of the match and had the best chances. First Maxi Gomez with a header to the post and later Pione Sisto, Fran Beltran and Brais Mendez could have put RC Celta ahead. Finally, the game ended with a goalless draw.
