Underdog Leonesa Upsets Levante in Copa del Rey
LEÓN, Spain (Interstat) — Cultural y Deportiva Leonesa delivered a surprise result in the Copa del Rey on Wednesday, defeating first-division side Atl Levante 1-0 at Estadio Municipal Reino de León. Forward Rafa Tresaco scored the game’s lone goal in the 12th minute, securing the victory for the lower-tier home side. Substitute Adrián de la Fuente and midfielder Bicho provided the assist and each received a yellow card in the tightly contested match. The outcome defied a pregame projection that favored Levante. With the win, Leonesa advances in the Spanish tournament while Levante is eliminated after its first match in the competition this season.
