Despite the goal of Nicolas Pepe, the former striker of Angers, Losc and Arsenal, Villarreal could not be a full card during the 3rd day of Liga. Marcelino’s players were hung (1-1) on the Celta Vigo lawn. If Pepe had opened the scoring at the start of the second period (53rd), Borja Iglesias torn the equalization in additional time (90th+4).

Suddenly, the Athletic Bilbao does the very good operation of the day thanks to its victory (1-2) on the lawn of Bétis Seville. A goal against his camp by Marc Bartra (60th) and a production of PARDES (85th) allowed the Basques to win, even if Cédric Bakambu reduced the gap (90th+7).

Pending the match between Barça and Rayo Vallecano, Athletic Bilbao is a co-leader of Liga with Real Madrid.
