Little old Levante living La Liga loco
He’s a veteran, he’s a leader and his first name even begins with an S. But Spain’s latest sporting hero is Sergio rather than Severiano, and his claim to fame is that he’s the captain of the most unlikely league leaders in the history of Spanish football.
With eight games gone, little Levante sit proudly at the top of the table, a point clear of Real Madrid and unbeaten like Barcelona, who are third.
