Levante UD 1:0 Al-Qadisiyah — Result, Match Report & Stats

Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Paco Cortés' 58th-minute goal was enough to give Levante UD a narrow 1-0 victory over Al-Qadisiyah in a Club Friendly that offered little in the way of flowing football. Both sides looked understandably rusty in this low-key pre-season affair, with the game's only moment of quality arriving midway through the second half.

The match had drifted without clear chances until the hour mark, when Levante's Cortés pounced on a loose ball inside the box to fire past the Al-Qadisiyah goalkeeper. Before that, the first half had been a scrappy battle of attrition, punctuated only by yellow cards for Levante in the 22nd minute and Al-Qadisiyah in the 38th minute, neither side able to establish any rhythm.

On the numbers, the game was a statistical stalemate: both teams shared exactly 50% possession, while Al-Qadisiyah edged the corner count 5-4, suggesting neither side truly controlled the contest. The standout was Levante's Jon Ander Olasagasti, who earned the highest rating of 8.73 from deep in midfield, orchestrating what little composure his side could muster. With no next fixture scheduled, Levante will simply take the win and look to build sharper patterns in their next outing.
