    A dramatic finish, but Valencia held on to the lead and takes three points in the standings. (20:51:15)
     
    90+2
    Game over.
     
    90
    Two minutes to be added on.
     
    89
    Now the ball is in front of Asenjo, right where Valencia wants it.
     
    88
    Valencia does what is the best for them now and every ball that gets to them is immediately cleared away.
     
    87
    Villarreal keeps possession and is doing everything to tie the score.
     
    86
    Another great chance for dos Santos, but he was offside this time around.
     
    85
    La Mestalla is in shock.
     
    84
    Now the momentum is on the Villarreal side, look out for a top-class finish.
     
    83
    Goal for Villarreal!

    Now there's a twist to this story and we will see a much more dramatic last couple of minutes! GIOVANNI DOS SANTOS was left uncovered in the penalty area and his shot went right where Guaita couldn't get in time to stop it.
     
    82
    Valencia has possession again.
     
    81
    Good cross by Barragán, but Asenjo goes up to collect it.
     
    80
    Not much hope left for Villarreal and the visiting team has started trying long-range shots. Not much of a problem for Guaita.
     
    79
    Cani leaves the field, Gómez goes in for him.
     
    78
    Villarreal went on to a counter-attack immediately, but Cartabia stops it. It was a foul though and maybe worth a booking, too.
     
    77
    Good-looking pass by Paco Alcácer snagged away at the last second by Pina.
     
    75
    It looks like Valencia has the game under control.
     
    74
    Good individual effort by Fuego whose first half was much better than this second half. He fired the ball too high after getting to the good position.
     
    73
    Villarreal is trying hard, but it's not easy for them.
     
    72
    Keita almost scored the third goal of his team. However, he fired the ball over the crossbar from a point-blank range.
