Scotland striker Robbie Ure delivered a standout display by scoring his first La Liga goal - and setting up another - as Sevilla drew a six-goal thriller at Levante.
The former Rangers forward, signed from Swedish side Sirius in the summer for £5.5m, pounced on a defensive error from the struggling hosts before rounding the goalkeeper and opening his account for his new club.
After the break, the 22-year-old, who won his first caps for his country during head coach Sebastien Pocognoli's maiden Scotland camp, rose to win a header that set up Portuguese winger Felix Correia to double the visitors' lead.
Levante quickly responded through a goal from Ivan Romero, with Ure being substituted nine minutes later.
In a chaotic finale, the home side netted the first of three stoppage-time goals with a stunning equaliser from Adrian de la Fuente.
A thumping strike from Isaac Romero, who was then sent off with a second yellow card for excessive celebration, put Sevilla back ahead just three minutes later.
However, there was time for more drama in the 100th minute as Ifeanyi Ndukwe struck from close range to level an enthralling encounter.
