Rayo Vallecano vs Deportivo Alavés

Rayo Vallecano and Alaves shared the points in a tense 1-1 draw played at Butarque, with the hosts still unable to use Vallecas. The standout moment came just after the break when Sergio Camello weaved past three defenders and finished beyond goalkeeper Sivera, capping a night that also saw an early Rayo goal chalked off by VAR for offside and a possible handball by Pelayo. Camello's 47th-minute strike, set up by Jorge De Frutos, looked set to hold up until Mariano Diaz pounced on a defensive slip from Ratiu to equalize in the 84th minute. Alaves had chances to snatch all three points too, with Toni Martinez striking the post before the break and spurning another close-range effort in the 88th minute, while Diaz's late follow-up attempt was saved by Cardenas. Both Camello and Tenaglia picked up yellow cards. A point apiece leaves both sides mid-table after two rounds, with Rayo again frustrated by their stadium situation as supporters protested against president Martin Presa during the game.
