| Levante fought off Real Mallorca at home to earn a goalless draw, and Gustavo Munua was the reason why. Emilio Nsue, Pablo Cendros, Victor and Jose Luis Marti all were thwarted by the goalkeeper. |

 Sergio BALLESTEROS Levante TOTW Apps: 3 |

| Sergio Ramos continued to excel in central defence for Real Madrid and also scored the crucial second goal in their 5-1 home victory over Granada. Veteran defender Sergio Ballesteros was back to his best for Levante against Mallorca, while Alvaro Dominguez led Atletico Madrid from the back against Malaga and helped them to a goalless away draw. |

| Real Sociedad failed to get more than a point against Osasuna at home as their game finished 0-0, but Carlos Vela showcased his calibre. He hit the frame of Osasuna’s goal and troubled the visitors’ defence throughout. Mesut Ozil was the star of the show for Madrid as the Germany international was directly involved in three of the goals. His vision, creativity and passes were exquisite. Borja Valero ran the midfield for Villarreal as the Yellow Submarine earned a 2-2 draw with Valencia at home. The midfielder provided the assist for the second goal. Jefferson Montero was an important figure in Real Betis’ 2-0 win against nine-man Sporting Gijon, impressing with his trickery and movement down the flanks. | |||||

 Karim BENZEMA Real Madrid TOTW Apps: 2 |
 Cesc FABREGAS Barcelona TOTW Apps: 5 |
 Alvaro VAZQUEZ Espanyol TOTW Apps: 1 |
||||
| Karim Benzema’s movement in attack for Madrid against Granada was superb and he was justifiably rewarded for his effort with two goals. Cesc Fabregas played upfront down the middle for Barcelona against Espanyol, grabbed a goal, hit the post and was the best player on the pitch. However, Alvaro Vazquez stole the headlines in the end as he came off the bench to score the equaliser for Espanyol as the Catalan derby ended in a 1-1 draw. | ||||||
