A two-tiered roofless bowl, green-and-white striped, empty at the top and less than half full below. Elche were big and determinedly ponderous, Eibar had more skill but nowhere near enough ambition to make for an entertaining game. Their winner was the classic sucker punch: a cut-back from the touchline scuffed into the far corner past the goalkeeper's outstretched finger nails. The net barely rippled; there was more movement on the bench than in the stands. Thirty seconds later the full-time whistle blew.
