Villarreal wins 4-1, as Ekambi scores 2 against Alavés (Video)

On Friday Night, Villarreal cruised as they beat Alavés 4-1 to move closer to the top of the Spanish league.

This is now the fifth win in their last seven games, closing edge with 17 points "Third place", one less than second-place Real Madrid and two behind leader Barcelona.

Real Madrid and Barcelona won’t play this weekend after their "clásico" match was postponed until December because of a separatist rally planned in the Catalan capital.

Ekambi opened the scoring with a shot from inside the area after a fast counterattack in the 13th minute. He added his second with a touch from close range in the 65th after Lucas Pérez had equalized for the visitors with a neat bicycle kick in the 50th.
