Papu Gomez scores a beauty in Sevilla's comeback draw
Papu Gomez scores the pick of the goals as Sevilla earns a draw from 2-0 down vs. Celta Vigo.
Second-placed Sevilla fought back from two goals down but failed to close the gap on LaLiga leaders Real Madrid as they were held 2-2 at home by Celta Vigo on Saturday, their second consecutive draw.
