Castellón lost the top spot after a 1-1 draw with Ceuta, and the point turned on two early and late moments. Suero put Castellón ahead in the 2nd minute after an assist from Álvaro García, then Kuki Zalazar levelled in the 53rd.
Castellón's lead slips at Castalia
That draw was enough to cost Castellón the lead, and it came in a game they had already opened quickly. Ceuta did not need a full comeback to change the table, just one equaliser after the break.
The home side still had the better start, but the gap disappeared after half-time and the round no longer belonged to a single front-runner.
Granada and Sporting keep the pressure on
Granada CF produced the night’s biggest comeback, with Jorge Pascual scoring in the 93rd minute to complete the turnaround against Real Sociedad B. Granada were two goals down at half-time before recovering after the break, and the late winner gave the result real weight.
Sporting CP also had to work for its points, beating Celta Vigo 3-2 after Antonio Casas scored twice and Guille Rosas added the other goal. Sporting's recent league form now reads three wins in five, while Celta Vigo have only one win in their last five, so the comeback fit the momentum around both sides.
The round did not produce a routine set of home wins. It produced late equaliser, late winner and late resistance, with Castellón, Granada and Sporting all part of the same shake-up.
