Lealtad beat Cultural to extend dream start

Lealtad had one win, one draw, and one defeat going into the game, meaning that this win was vital.

They started the better, putting the pressure on Cultural, and had the first shot when they made their way into the opposition area early on.

It was 0-0 at half time in Asturia. Cultural came forward and applied the pressure after the break, getting some of the biggest chances of the game, but failed to take advantage and the scores stayed level.

After several changes, Dani Sandoval converted an indisputable penalty to give Lealtad the lead.

They are unbeaten in 69 games at this level. That isn't the kind of record you get by luck and they showed it again today, sitting back and shutting down the game once they took the lead.

Cultural tried to create chances and turn up the pressure but it wasn't to be and Lealtad held on to take the win and top the group.
