Lleida CF suffered a 2-1 defeat away at L'Hospitalet this Sunday, a result that leaves the team from Lleida at the bottom of the league table with 20 points.

The match was decided in a chaotic first half. After Pau Russo had two penalty appeals turned down, Flavio opened the scoring for the hosts in the 17th minute. Just 40 seconds later, Serra doubled the lead following a defensive lapse by the visitors.
Although Escobedo managed to pull one back with a header in the 84th minute from a Toni Vicente corner, Lleida could not find the equalizer. The team will now have a break before their next match against Vic on March 4th.
