Just how is Levante doing it? The record-breaking run of the side with the smallest budget in La Liga continued apace on Wednesday night as Juan Ignacio Martínez's men recovered from a goal conceded after three minutes to win a rollercoaster affair 3-2 courtesy of a 40-yard thunderbolt by Rubén Suárez in the 93rd minute. It was breathless stuff, and Levante is holding on for the ride. (...)
Never before has Levante won so many games on the trot, and only Barcelona and Real Madrid have matched its point-plucking verve in the first nine games of a season in the past decade. Precisely those two behemoths of the Spanish game now find themselves chasing Levante, for the time being at least. Osasuna, a traditionally tough prospect at its Reina de Navarra home, will be the next side to try and halt Levante's extraordinary trajectory.
