Leganes, Spain: Levante defeated a somewhat ragged Leganes side 3-0 here to extend their winning streak to four matches and climb to 16th place in the La Liga football championship.

José Luis Morales, Coke and Enis Bardhi all scored in the second half on Monday for Levante, who now have 43 points from 36 games. Leganes are in the 17th spot with 40 points, having already secured their position in the Spanish top-flight next league campaign. The opening whistle signalled not only the start of the match but the onset of a deluge that left the players soaked and sent the fans in the uncovered seats running to the tunnels for cover. (IANS)
