The match of the day was the top of the table clash between Levante and Salamanca, which finished 2-3. The Valencia side opened the scoring through league top scorer Salillas, but two penalties, one scored by Munteanu and the other by Quique Martín, and another goal in between by Munteanu, gave Salamanca an unbeatable lead, despite a late goal by Vicente. Jarni made his debut for Las Palmas, and the Canary Island side moved second, four points behind Salamanca, with a 0-2 victory at struggling Recreativo. Segueiros got both goals. The two teams behind the three leaders failed to take advantage of the slip up of Levante, with Extremadura only drawing 0-0 at Leganés, and Sporting falling spectacularly at home by 1-4 to bankrupt Logroñes. Villarreal moved back into contention with a 2-0 win against Albacete, taking them level with Sporting on points. Eibar also moved up with a one goal victory against Getafe, and two goals from Pier helped Tenerife to a 2-1 win versus Lleida. Atlético B's run of six victories ended, but they still shared the points with a 1-1 draw at home to Osasuna, and Compostela beat Mérida 0-1. Elche's new manager D'Alessandro (Solari finally turned down the job) saw his side pick up a point in a goal-less draw against Badajoz, but they stay in second to bottom place six and eight points respectively ahead of Recreativo and Toledo, who were beaten 0-2 by Córdoba.
