Barral would score the first of his three goals two minutes later to even the score.
On the half hour mark, Uche nearly gave Levante the lead with a thumping header from close range but kameni made a big save before Barral scored from the spot to put Les Granotes in front for the first time with eight minutes to the break.
Uche came close to making it 3-1 to Levante but could only head off target from close range as his team took a 2-1 lead into the break.
In the 62nd minute, Barral converted another spot kick to give Levante a two-goal lead.
With a quarter of an hour left to play, Uche put the icing on the cake with a close range finish that gave Levante a 4-1 win.
The goal is the 32-year-old Nigerian's first for Levante after two league appearances.
