Villarreal missed out on a chance to top the table for the first time in their history after they were held to a 2-2 draw by regional neighbours Hércules on Monday night. Valdes got behind the defensive wall to collect a Drenthe free kick and put the locals ahead midway through the first half, but just two minutes later Capdevila latched on to Angel's cross to equalise from close to goal. Trézéguet restored the lead following another Drenthe cross five minutes before the break, but the French striker got himself sent off three minutes later for protesting.

After the restart Borja Valero picked up a Cazorla pass to level the scores once again, but he too got his marching orders for a second bookable offence with ten minutes to go, and he was followed down the tunnel a couple of minutes later by his team-mate Musacchio, who was shown a straight red card for elbowing an opponent. Not the result that Villarreal wanted, but the point keeps them second in the table behind Valencia.
