Levante UD secured a point at A Malata, where only one team has managed to take all three points so far. Javi Calleja's team had numerous opportunities to take the lead, especially in the first half. Racing Club de Ferrol was reduced to ten men, defended deeply to preserve their clean sheet, and Levante struggled to penetrate the opponent's area more effectively.

In the first half, the Granota team had more chances but lacked accuracy in the final third to convert their threat into goals. A few minutes into the game, Capa delivered a cross from the right, and Pablo Martínez's shot at the far post went wide. Shortly afterward, Dani Gómez tried his luck from outside the box, but the ball sailed over the crossbar. Levante UD persisted, attempting various ways to breach the opposing goal. Bouldini provided the ball for Dani Gómez's attempt in front of the goal, but the striker failed to make good contact with the ball.

Levante managed to take the lead after 20 minutes, but the goal was disallowed for offside. Carlos Álvarez played the ball wide to Pablo, who crossed it, and Dani Gómez's shot found the back of the net. However, the goal was disallowed due to the offside position of the No. 9.

Around the half-hour mark, Racing Club de Ferrol was reduced to ten men following Álex López's red card for a foul on Sergio Lozano. Despite being a man down, the Valencia-based team continued to search for the goal, with a good combination between Pablo Martínez and Dani Gómez. However, Dani Gómez's shot went over the bar. In the final minutes of the first half, the hosts created clearer chances. First, a Pinchi cross was met by Álvaro G., and Postigo cleared the ball. Shortly after, Álvaro G. tested Andrés Fernández's reflexes, and the goalkeeper sent the shot out for a corner.

After the break, both teams struggled to generate danger. However, Levante UD was the first to try again, with a shot from Dani Gómez that the goalkeeper caught. Racing Club de Ferrol responded with a shot from Iker that went wide. Later, Levante had a chance from a corner that ended with Fabrício's header being caught by the goalkeeper. Without luck in front of goal and Levante UD pressing for a breakthrough, coach Javi Calleja introduced youth player Carlos Esp, who had the opportunity to make his first-team debut.
