The team that took the most advantage of this situation was Villarreal, which defeated Alav\u00e9s and moved up to third place.

Meanwhile, Espanyol and Real Betis were unable to close in on the Champions League places as they had hoped, after drawing away at Levante and Real Oviedo, respectively, while Celta moved very close to the \u2018Verdiblancos\u2019.

In the relegation battle, Valencia drew and failed to take advantage of Mallorca\u2019s defeat to move out of the danger zone, while Girona defeated Osasuna and managed to get some breathing room.

A last-gasp goal gave Real Sociedad a 1\u20132 away victory over Getafe when it looked like the win was slipping away.

The Basque side were the favorites and tried to take control from the start, and in the 36th minute, they opened the scoring with a fine strike from the edge of the box by Brais M\u00e9ndez.

There were a few situations in each penalty area without much danger until the 90th minute, when Juanmi made it 1\u20131 with a shot from inside the box.

It seemed the match would end level, but in the final minute of stoppage time, at 90+6, Venezuelan Jon Aramburu won a header from a corner kick and, after a poor clearance by David Soria, made it 1\u20132.

With this victory, Real Sociedad moved up to 11th place with 21 points, overtaking Getafe, who are now 12th with the same number of points but trailing on head-to-head results.<\/strong>

Result: Getafe 1-2 Real Sociedad <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Real Oviedo picked up a valuable point in the relegation battle after drawing 1\u20131 at home against Real Betis, a result that complicated the visitors\u2019 situation.

The \u2018Verdiblancos\u2019 were clearly the better side and hit the post twice through Cucho Hern\u00e1ndez, while Pablo Fornals also had a great chance that was saved by goalkeeper Aar\u00f3n Escandell. Despite this, it was the home side that took the lead in the 64th minute with a superb low, long-range cross-shot from Ilyas Chaira.

Time kept passing, and the Sevilla side could not find the equalizer until Giovanni Lo Celso appeared in the 83rd minute with a slight header that redirected Antony\u2019s cross to make it 1\u20131, which proved to be the final score.

This result benefits neither team, as Oviedo remain bottom with 13 points, five away from safety, while Betis sit sixth with 29 points, now level with Celta and ahead only on goal difference. <\/strong>

Result: Oviedo 1-1 Real Betis<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The big winner of the weekend was Villarreal, who defeated Alav\u00e9s 3\u20131 and climbed to third place in the standings.

There were four goals, all in the second half. Early after the break, in the 49th minute, Alberto Moleiro picked up a loose ball and from the edge of the box curled a stunning shot into the far top corner for a spectacular goal.

Six minutes later, it was Gerard Moreno\u2019s turn, firing a first-time effort, also from the edge of the area, after a clearance by the goalkeeper.

In the 75th minute, Georges Mikautadze got on the scoresheet, delicately chipping the goalkeeper after a brilliant move and an assist from Moleiro.

Alav\u00e9s pulled one back in the 85th minute through Toni Mart\u00ednez with a fine finish following a mistake in the \u2018Submarino Amarillo\u2019 buildup, but it was not enough, and they dropped to 16th place with 19 points, two above the relegation zone.

Villarreal, meanwhile, are now third with 41 points, two clear of Atl\u00e9tico Madrid and four behind second-placed Real Madrid, while also having a game in hand against 19th-placed Levante. <\/strong>

Result: Villarreal 3-1 Alav\u00e9s <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the match that closed Matchday 19 of LaLiga on Monday, Celta earned a very important 0\u20131 away victory over Sevilla.

The Vigo side was the better team and created the most chances, turning Odysseas Vlachodimos into the standout performer, as he produced several excellent saves, including a low stop on Ilaix Moriba.

The only way to break the Greek goalkeeper\u2019s resistance was from the penalty spot. Marcos Alonso stepped up in the 88th minute to convert and secure the win for his side, who sit seventh, level on points with sixth-placed Betis but with one fewer goal in goal difference. Sevilla, meanwhile, dropped to 14th place with 20 points. <\/strong>

Result: Sevilla 0-1 Celta<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
