Málaga beat regional rivals Betis 3-2 in the last match on Sunday to move four points clear of Pepe Mel's side, who find themselves down in the bottom three having only picked up one point from their last five games. Santa Cruz headed the locals in to the lead at the second attempt with just under a quarter of an hour gone, but Verdú equalized with a well struck free quick some twenty minutes later. There was a scare when Perquis had to be taken away in an ambulance after a clash of heads with Fabrice left him unconscious (later diagnosed as a fractured jaw), but a few minutes after play resumed Portillo put Eliseu through for him to restore the lead. Two minutes later Jordi Figueras made it all square again with a glancing header from a long Juan Carlos free kick, and either side could have scored after that, Vadillo going close a couple of times and Andersen having to save from Juanmi. However with the game in the third minute of time added on Portillo's shot ballooned off Jordi Figueras on to the bar, and Samuel was on hand to volley home the rebound.
