Real Madrid lost, but that didn’t mean Barcelona took advantage: in fact, the leader of the Spanish championship did the same and lost in the trip to Rayo Vallecano’s ground, by 2-1.

Álvaro García opened the scoring for the team from Vallecas in the 19th minute and at the start of the second half, taking advantage of a Catalan inattention, Fran García extended the advantage of the men of the house.

After four games without a goal, Lewandowski returned to goals to reduce it to 2-1, in the 83rd minute, but that was it: the goal of honor for the Blaugrana.

Played 31 days in La Liga, Barcelona continues to lead comfortably, with 11 points ahead of Real Madrid. Rayo is ninth.

A happier night had Celta de Vigo, by Carlos Carvalhal. In the reception to the red lantern Elche, the formation of Balaídos triumphed by 1-0.

Gonçalo Paciência was in the starting line-up, but it was without the striker on the field that the home team won: it was in the 90th minute, through a goal by Aidoo, assisted by Franco Cervi, formerly of Benfica.

With this result, Celta is in 12th position, with 39 points. Elche follows in last.
