Oviedo moves off the bottom of La Liga after home draw against Mallorca
OVIEDO, Spain (AP) --- Real Oviedo moved off the bottom of La Liga after
drawing at home with Mallorca 0-0 even though it finished with nine men on
Friday.
Oviedo captain Santi Cazorla was shown a straight red in the 89th minute when
he lunged into the ankle of Mallorca striker Vedat Muriqui.
Teammate Federico Vias followed him down the tunnel six minutes later after
another bad challenge.
However, it was too late for Mallorca to make its numerical superiority count
and both sides had to be content with a point.
Oviedo will be the happier of the two sides but it was still winless in nine
straight games, a run that stretched back to September and included Copa del
Rey elimination by third-tier Ourense.
Oviedo has failed to find the net in its last five matches.
Mallorca was 15th, two spots above the relegation zone.
"If you can't win, it's important not to lose," Muriqi said. "I really value
the point away from home."
