Can these two play every week?
Jaysus, there’d be little complaining about ticket prices if games threw up 12 goals now and again and, when they come as dramatic as they did between Numancia and Lugo last night, it’s even better.
The two Liga Adelante sides played out a 6-6 cracker that they’ll be talking about in Spain long into the future – but probably not for longer than they do Newcastle-Liverpool across the water.
What’s even better? The hosts were 6-3 down with six minutes remaining. We wonder how many suckers left the stadium before Numancia rallied unbelievably with two equalising goals in stoppage time.
They even got greedy as they bemoaned a last-gasp chance that was cleared off the line with the final play of the match. A chance that would’ve won it for them. As it was, we had to just make do with the 12 goals.
