Athletic Bilbao became provisional leader of the Spanish LaLiga after beating Mallorca 2-0 at home on matchday four.
The goals of Dani Vivian (68) and Iñaki Williams (74) in the second half gave Athletic three points that allow them to get first in the table, with eight points.
The Basque team remains undefeated in the competition, with two games won and two tied.
In a day on Saturday in which only two games were played, with a draw (1-1) in the other, Levante-Rayo Vallecano, Athletic has one more game than its pursuers in the table.
Thus, with seven units are Real Madrid, Seville, Valencia, Barcelona, Atlético Madrid and Mallorca itself, which lost its first game in this championship.
After drawing the first two games against Elche (0-0) and Barcelona (1-1), Athletic beat Celta in Vigo (1-0) on the third match and now Mallorca.
The first goal for the rojiblanco team from Bilbao against Mallorca came with a center from Iker Muniain that Vivian headed into the nets.
Muniain, who gave the two assists of the game, would later steal a ball in the Balearic defense, crossing from the left, for Williams to finish from close range.
In the other match played this Saturday, Levante (12th) let two points escape in the discount when Rayo Vallecano (10th) drew through Sergi Guardiola (90 + 3). AFP (HN)
The Valencian team had gone ahead in the first half, with a penalty transformed by Roger Martí (39).
