Real Valladolid fight back to earn unlikely point

Real Valladolid have staged a valiant second-half fightback to earn a point from their home match against Sevilla.

Unai Emery's men made a blistering start through Carlos Bacca, who fired into Diego Marino's net in just the second minute of the game.

It was 2-0 just after the half-hour mark when Alberto Moreno pounced on a loose ball to rifle into the bottom corner.

Moreno nearly gave the visitors a 3-0 cushion at the break but Marino just about managed to keep his side in the game.

Diogo Figueiras and Bacca both went close to adding a third in the second half before Manucho powered a header past Beto from Carlos Pena's inviting cross.

Three minutes later the hosts had their equaliser, as German midfielder Patrick Ebert found the top corner with a brilliant free kick.

A point sees Juan Ignacio Martinez's men climb out of the relegation zone in La Liga, while Sevilla are 10th and still without a win on the road in 21 games.
