3 Monument for Iago Aspas?

If Celta Vigo avoid relegation this season, someone should consider building a statue of striker Iago Aspas.

Several seasons ago Aspas scored the goal which saved the club from dropping into the third tier of the Spanish game and in 2013, he again netted a goal to save them from relegation.

Injury has ruined the past 3 months for Aspas and Saturday was only his second appearances of 2019. During his absence Celta dropped nine places in the table to third from bottom and trailing 2-0 to Villarreal (a direct rival) they looked likely to end up seven points from safety.

However, Aspas scored twice to help turn the game around and a 2-0 deficit became morale boosting 3-2 win.

The forward ended up exhausted and in tears of emotion on the bench with the Celta fans chanting his name. If ever a player symbolized the club, it's Iago Aspas.

4 Battle for Europe gets tighter

The battle for fourth, fifth, sixth and even seventh place got closer over the weekend as fourth and fifth placed Alaves and Getafe both lost, while Valencia claimed a vital win against Sevilla and Betis were held to a draw by Rayo Vallecano.

Just six points now separate fourth place Getafe from ninth placed Betis, while Athletic Club Bilbao climbed up to eighth as their incredible turnaround continued under Gaizka Garitano with a 2-1 win away to Girona on Friday night.
