One match on Friday evening, Celta climbing to within four points of the European spots after a 1-0 victory over Leganés in a rainy Balaidos stadium. Iago Aspas got the only goal from the penalty spot midway through the first half after Jonny was brought down by Erik Morán, and only a string of saves by Cuéllar, in particular from Aspas, Jonny and Guidetti, prevented the locals from winning by a bigger margin. The result takes the Galicians level with their opponents in the table.
