UD Las Palmas extended its poor run of results with a draw at home against Sporting de Gijón (1-1), who played outnumbered in the last third of the game due to the expulsion of José Marsà, a circumstance that they were unable to take advantage of once again this season the yellow team.

In the first half, Las Palmas had territorial control, although with little depth, while Sporting lived from their order in defense and from trying to surprise in quick transitions, but without many troops so as not to get disordered or suffer the return to their own half.
However, the Frenchman Jonathan Varane, with a great stride in his conduction, ended one of those counterattacks with a precise cross that Dani Queipo hooked into the net with a great scissor shot.
The goal strengthened the idea of the Asturian team, which managed to reach the break with an unbeaten goal.
García Pimienta made three substitutions at the beginning of the second half that changed the game and, already at minute 50, Moleiro’s goal was disallowed due to Pejiño’s offside in the genesis of the play, at the request of video arbitration.

Eight minutes later Sporting suffered the technology against them with a penalty signaled by a takedown of Marc Cardona by Izquierdoz that the referee had not seen, although it seemed that the Argentine central defender arrived first to clear the ball.
As if the punishment were not enough, before Jonathan Viera converted him, José Marsà was expelled for making offensive gestures towards one of his assistants.
After the tie, Las Palmas once again faced one of its pending tasks of the course: overcoming a rival in numerical inferiority, this time with half an hour of play to go. And he stopped again.
Sporting no longer had a way out and was forced to take refuge in their field, if not in their area, from the unsuccessful yellow monologue.
Despite this, the Asturian team was even able to take the victory from set pieces with two very clear opportunities from Izquierdoz, first with a shot after a long-range free kick that Valles deflected into a corner, and in that corner kick, a header from the Argentine central defender over from the crossbar, all alone.
