Rayo Vallecano stage dramatic comeback against Celta Vigo

Rayo stage dramatic comeback

Rayo Vallecano have come from two goals down to defeat Celta Vigo 3-2 at home in La Liga.

The Galician visitors went ahead in Madrid as early as the 12th minute, when Iago Aspas latched on to Alex Lopez's through ball to shot home from close range.

Celta doubled their advantage in the 34th minute through Aspas as he finished off a well-measured Michael Krohn-Dehli through ball.

However, five minutes later the visitors were reduced to 10 men, as Gustavo Cabral was dismissed for a second bookable offence.

Rayo started their comeback just before the hour mark when Leo Baptistao headed home Jose Casado's cross from close range.

It became 2-2 in the 72nd minute when Tito headed in Alejandro Dominguez's cross from just yards out.

The comeback was complete eight minutes from time when Andres Tunez's challenge on Andrija Delibasic inside the Celta area saw the referee point to the penalty spot, and Piti made no mistake from 12 yards.
