Real Oviedo faced a true final at the Ciutat de València against Levante UD, a clash marked in red in the fight for survival. However, the final result (4-2) leaves Guillermo Almada's team in a very precarious situation and with an increasingly difficult outlook.

The match began in the worst possible way for the blues' interests. Levante came out determined to impose their rhythm from the first minute, dominating the game and creating constant dangerous chances, especially through Carlos Espí. The Levante striker was the main protagonist of the start, scoring the first two goals of the match in just a few minutes and putting up a 2-0 scoreline that reflected what was happening on the pitch.

Oviedo, overwhelmed, could not find a way to settle on the field or approach Ryan's goal with clarity. In fact, Carlos Espí himself came close to scoring a third with a very clear chance, but his shot missed the target, giving the Carbayones a brief respite.

When things looked their worst, the Oviedo team showed pride before halftime. First, it was Ilyas Chaira who reduced the deficit with a precise header, and then in added time, Fede Viñas appeared. The striker won a penalty and converted it himself to make it 2-2 and restore hope to his team.

After the break, the match restarted, but the blow came again for Oviedo. A long-range shot from Iker Losada, which deflected off Sibo, changed the ball's trajectory and made it impossible for Aarón Escandell to save, resulting in a 3-2 scoreline.

Once again, Oviedo had to fight from behind. Almada made substitutions in search of solutions, but this time Levante managed their lead intelligently. The pace of the match slowed, and chances were scarce, with both teams unable to create real danger in the final stretch.

In stoppage time, the home team sealed the match with a fourth goal, definitively closing the game and securing three vital points in their fight for survival, while Real Oviedo finds itself in a very difficult situation.
