Sevilla rescue point against struggling Santander

An injury-time goal earned Sevilla a last-gasp 2-2 draw against Racing Santander at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. Racing had been on course to record their first Primera Division win of the season after Ariel Nahuelpan cancelled out Manu's first-half opener in the 63rd minute and Jairo added a second six minutes later. However, Manu levelled the scores in injury time to earn Sevilla a draw and keep Racing in the relegation zone. Sevilla remain in fourth, two points behind Real Madrid who play Villarreal tomorrow. The home side quickly started to dominate and always looked the more likely to score. Martin Caceres put his header wide of the post before Racing goalkeeper Tono made a fantastic save when Piotr Trochowski fizzed in a strike from 18 yards. Caceres put another header wide before Sevilla midfielder Jose Campana's 20-yard shot missed the right post as the home side started to apply some pressure. Manu finally broke the deadlock before the break when he headed in Campana's cross from close range to beat Tono. Samperio almost levelled the scores before half-time but the Racing midfielder blasted his shot over the bar from six yards. After the break Sevilla picked up where they left off when Manu shot from the left of the area but Tono punched the ball clear. Campana then tested Racing's defence with successive free-kicks but the chances were neutralised as the visitors tried to cling on. Nahuelpan then found the equaliser when he headed in Adrian Gonzalez's cross. The striker leapt highest in the centre of the area to nod the ball into the goal to give Racing hope. Jairo soon put the visitors in the lead after Papakouli Diop crossed in the ball from the left flank and picked out Jairo in the area, who fired the ball into the top left corner to put Racing in front. But Sevilla saved a point thanks to Manu, who headed in his second from close range in injury time to deny Racing at the death.
