Salamanca held on to the top spot, but only just after losing again, this time by 2-1 to Atlético B. The leaders took the lead through Morales early in the second half, but Cubilla and Luque scored for the Madrid B team, thereby ending their run of seven games without a win. Salamanca have now only got one point from the last five matches, and their lead has been cut to two points. Las Palmas moved back into second place after beating Compostela 0-2, both goals for Kresic's team coming from Eloy. They are a point ahead of Levante, who drew 0-0 at home to Villarreal, and Extremadura, who fell 2-1 at Córdoba. The Andalucians, who are now seventh, have gone eight games without defeat. Tenerife and Osasuna took advantage of bad results elsewhere to move to within a point of the promotion spots. Tenerife beat Elche by 1-0 with a penalty from Morales, and Osasuna left Logroñes in a desperate position with a 2-0 victory, with goals by Ziganda and Iván Rosado. Sporting lost their opportunity to catch up on the leaders, only drawing 1-1 at home to Eibar, as did Leida, who lost 1-0 at Leganés. Bottom club Toledo won again, this time by 2-0 against Badajoz, but their revival has probably come too late. They are now three points behind Recreativo, who dropped back down after losing at home 2-4 to fellow strugglers Getafe, who played the last hour with ten men. Mérida and Albacete moved a little closer to the drop zone after a dull 1-1 draw.
