Levante and Albacete met in a Club Friendlies fixture on Friday, with the home side taking a 2-1 victory. The match unfolded at their stadium with goals from both camps before a late intervention decided matters. Three goals were scored across the ninety minutes, each arriving at different stages of the contest.
Lorenzo Aguado Herrera opened the scoring at the twenty-sixth minute, giving Levante an early advantage. Albacete responded before the break, with Roger Brugué finding the net just before half-time at forty-four. By then, the game had settled into a rhythm where both sides could see opportunities.
The turning point came in the second half when Karl Etta Eyong struck at fifty-six minutes. He picked up where his teammates left off, stretching the back line and capitalising on space. The away side could not respond, and the result held until the final whistle.
Levante controlled 57 per cent of possession but Albacete registered slightly more attacks — 80 to 78. The hosts earned eight corners compared to three for the visitors, while both teams received one yellow card each. Possession figures tell part of the story, but the goals came from moments rather than sustained pressure.
The victory adds to Levante's recent form, which includes a win against Leganes and a narrow defeat to Sheffield United. Albacete's record shows more inconsistency, with results alternating between draws and losses. Friendlies offer little in terms of table positions, but they reveal patterns that coaches will note.
