La Liga 2011-12 week 31 part 2
Valencia's run of poor form continued as they were held to a 1-1 by Levante in La Liga on Sunday.
Unai Emery's Valencia opened the scoring through Jonas, but Arouna Kone levelled in the second half as both sides missed chances to win the encounter at Estadio Mestalla.
In an otherwise dour first half, Emery's men managed to open the scoring with a rare quality move.
Aduriz started the counter-attack when he played a precise pass to Sofiane Feghouli down the left, and the Algeria international squared for Jonas to tap in on 35 minutes.
Valencia continued to dominate possession without creating clear-cut chances, and they were made to pay in the 54th minute.
A cross-field Jose Barkero pass found Valdo, who nodded across goal to see Kone power a finish past Vicente Guaita.
Elsewhere, Real Sociedad moved eight points clear of the relegation zone with a 4-0 thrashing of Rayo Vallecano.
Imanol Agirretxe put his side ahead after six minutes, finishing off a neat Daniel Estrada cross.
Agirretxe turned provider soon after, nodding a pass across the face of goal for David Zurutuza to head home.
French midfielder Antoine Griezmann added the third on 51 minutes, latching onto Gorka Elustondo's pass before finishing, and former Arsenal forward Carlos Vela struck the fourth.
In the other game, Villarreal played out a 0-0 draw at home to Espanyol to move four points clear of the bottom three.
Three goals in 17 minutes just after the break saw Sevilla earn a vital 3-1 win over Mallorca on Monday at Sanchez Pizjuan in La Liga action.
A scoreless first half had both teams feeling confident of earning a victory, but brilliant finishes by the hosts put things out of reach before the visitors could get on the board.
The opening goal came five minutes after the half-time break.
From a corner and with numerous players at the front post, Alvaro Negredo managed to flick on a cross from Jose Antonio Reyes, finding the far side of the goal.
Just over 10 minutes later, the hosts made it 2-0 thanks to Manuel del Moral. He was sent through into the left side of the box with a smooth pass from Navas, before finishing at the right side with a soft shot that hit the post before entering.
The fans only had to wait five more minutes for the third goal as Sevilla put the match out of reach. Navas started the attack with a pass to the left for Reyes.
The former Arsenal man played a perfect, low ball to the far post to split several defenders and find Navas, and the star midfielder finished with little trouble past the Mallorca custodian.
The visitors managed to get one back after Tomer Hemed put away a cross from Pablo Caceres at the near post 17 minutes from time, but the dramatic comeback did not come to fruition as Sevilla earned the quality victory by containing the Mallorca attack for the rest of the match.
