La Liga Roundup, Matchday 11
Matchday 11 of the 2025/26 La Liga season has concluded, featuring exciting matches, remarkable player displays, and surprising outcomes. Here is the La Liga roundup for this round of games.
Getafe 2-1 Girona
Getafe broke their streak of three home games without a win (two draws and one loss) by securing a hard-earned 2-1 victory against a struggling Girona team at the Coliseum. Girona continues to sit at the bottom of the league standings, facing a tough battle to stay in the top division.
Villarreal 4-0 Rayo Vallecano
Villarreal secured a convincing 4-0 win against Rayo Vallecano at the Estadio de la Cerámica, keeping their perfect home record in the league this season intact. Rayo’s coach, Iñigo Pérez, would be puzzled by his team’s sharp decline in performance after halftime, particularly since they had been unbeaten in their previous six matches across all competitions before this game.
Atletico Madrid 3-0 Sevilla
Atlético Madrid extended their unbeaten streak in La Liga to 10 matches with an easy 3-0 win against Sevilla at the Estadio Riyadh Air Metropolitano. After this win, Diego Simeone’s team stays in fourth place in the league and has yet to lose a home game this season. Sevilla suffered their third consecutive La Liga loss, putting them in 13th position.
Sociedad 3-2 Athletic Bilbao
Real Sociedad’s 3-2 win against local rivals Athletic Bilbao in La Liga marked their first back-to-back victories since April. This triumph propelled La Real to 14th place in the La Liga standings, while Athletic recorded their lowest points tally after 11 matches since the 2020/21 season.
Real Madrid 4-0 Valencia
Real Madrid comfortably beat Valencia 4-0, achieving their 10th straight La Liga victory at the Santiago Bernabéu. This marks their sixth consecutive win across all competitions, further boosting Xabi Alonso’s squad and maintaining their lead at the top of La Liga at 5 points. For Valencia, while the loss was anticipated, it remains painful, as they drop into the relegation zone.
Levante 1-2 Celta Vigo
Miguel Román scored a volley in the 91st minute to secure a 2-1 victory for Celta Vigo against Levante UD in La Liga at the Estadio Ciudad de Valencia, marking their fourth consecutive win in all competitions. This last-minute goal propelled Celta up to 12th place in the La Liga table. They will aim to continue their seven-match unbeaten streak (4 wins, 3 draws) across all competitions when they face GNK Dinamo Zagreb in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday.
Alaves 2-1 Espanyol
Denis Suárez and Lucas Boyé scored in the first half to help Deportivo Alavés maintain their unbeaten streak at home, now standing at three games (2 wins, 1 draw), as they defeated RCD Espanyol 2-1 in La Liga. This win extends the strong home form for Eduardo Coudet’s team at Mendizorrotza Stadium, where they have suffered only one loss since mid-April (5 wins, 4 draws).
Barcelona 3-1 Elche
Barcelona have reduced the deficit to only five points behind La Liga leaders Real Madrid following a 3-1 win over Elche, securing their ninth straight victory against the Franjiverdes. This result leaves Elche winless in their last four league games (1 draw, 3 losses), while Barcelona have maintained an unbeaten run of 22 matches against the Costa Blanca side (18 wins, 4 draws).
Betis 3-0 Mallorca
Real Betis have now won seven of their last eight encounters with RCD Mallorca, cruising to a 3-0 win at the Estadio Benito Villamarín, highlighted by Antony’s two goals in the first half. This victory lifts them to fifth place in the standings, just 3 points shy of Atlético Madrid, who currently hold the final UEFA Champions League qualification spot. On the other hand, Mallorca are struggling near the bottom of the table, with only goal difference keeping them out of the relegation zone.
Oviedo 0-0 Osasuna
Real Oviedo’s streak without a home win in La Liga reached four games following a scoreless draw against fellow relegation contenders Osasuna at Estadio Carlos Tartiere. This outcome doesn’t significantly alter the situation at the lower end of the standings, with Real Oviedo staying in 19th place, only one point and one position above bottom team Girona. Meanwhile, Osasuna missed the opportunity to increase their lead over the relegation zone, remaining 15th, just three points clear of Oviedo.
