“Alaves” comfortably defeated “Yellow Submarine” 1:0 in the previous round which forced Villarreal to lose suddenly and disappointingly. Even though Villarreal had a silmering opportunity to capitalize on their advantage with a numerical advantage for the last twenty minutes of the match, they were still outperformed by their opponent and never took the lead.
This loss eliminated Villarreal from the championship as this was their sixth undefeated match and as a result left Marcelino Garcia’s squad in fifth position with a significant gap of 5 and a single game left to play in the zone for Champions League.
“Real,” however, was fortunate to overcome “Rayo Vallecano” in their second home match, beating them 2:1. This brought some variety to the flow of the matches with the “Blancos” achieving their second victory in 6 La Liga matches. As was mentioned before, they went through another cycle containing 2 wins, 2 draws and two losses in this timeframe.
Even with the mixed results of their recent games, “Real” is currently in second place, having overtaken “Atletico,” and is now on level points with “Barcelona”. The Catalans still have a superior goal difference and an extra match left to play, so there’s still plenty of drama left in the race for the title. Real won against Atletico Madrid midweek in a Champions League playoff match, winning 5-4 in a penalty shootout.
