Looks like the match is on fuboTV and beIN Sports USA. Espanyol up 1-0 in the 30'. Tied 2-2 on aggregate.
Shaq is caught upfield and Espanyol were able to attack down the left side, requiring a nice save by the keeper.
Espanyol strikes first, beating offside trap. *Perhaps* Shaq could have been more alert here. pic.twitter.com/xWl0uptIY0— scuffed (@scuffedpod) January 11, 2018
Another missed tackle by Shaq almost leads to a goal. He tried to make amends by taking a rising shot from 30 meters.
Levante's change at the half was like for like, putting striker Emmanuel Boateng on. No, not that Emmanuel Boateng...
Shaq has stepped up his defending this half, and is more involved in the attack. Another sub coming in for Levante, not Coke
Levante defenders have been pushed up to the attacking half for the past 10 minutes. This is a good test for Shaq.
Game over. Levante is out of the cup. You would have to say that the decisive goal resulted from a mistimed tackle by Shaq, while his teammates offered little help. Still, he improved with time and had some killer tackles and hardly missed a header.
I'm going to catch some flack - I rarely watch Spanish football, and never the middling teams. Neither team earned a fan today either. The football was messy, slow, and predictable. You can see the talent there, but it just isn't my bag.
Thanks to our new friend "Scuffed" here is the decisive goal: Here's Espanyol's second. Now up 3-2 on aggregate with a 2-1 away goals advantage. Moore's tackle not decisive enough. Ugly all around from Levante. pic.twitter.com/1LZSFJtPlg— scuffed (@scuffedpod) January 11, 2018
Every Levante game I have watched to see Shaq play has been a real test of my patience. It's not that players aren't technical, the games can just put you to sleep at times.
I’m trying my best to recruit “Scuffed” (aka Adam Belz) to join BigSoccer. I think he would be a great asset to our community. No luck yet but I’ll keep working on him.
