From the evening of January 9 to the early morning of January 10, Beijing time, the 20th round of La Liga played a number of matches. Vallecano drew 1-1 at home with Real Betis, with Baliu and Canales scoring one goal each. Title-winning favourites Sevilla narrowly beat Getafe 1-0 thanks to Rafa Mir's goal. Alaves and Athletic Bilbao played in a 0-0 draw. Osasuna scored 2-0 against Cadiz, Budimir and Balha. Atletico drew 2-2 away to Villarreal, with Angel Correa and Condombia scoring for Atletico.
In Sevilla's match against Getafe, Rafa Mir scored shortly after the opening goal for Sevilla, but the goal was invalid due to offside. However, Rafa-Mir then seized the opportunity to wrap it up in front of goal and send the ball into the near corner of the goal with his heels. It was a magical goal. Getafe had few chances in the first half, with Hunar's header too high and being held firmly in the arms of the goalkeeper. Sevilla led 1-0 at half-time. In the second half, Sevilla still had the advantage, but they never scored again. The final score was set at 1-0, and Sevilla scored all three points. Sevilla scored 1 goal on goal with 1 shot on target and was lucky. Getafe, on the other hand, scored 4 shots on goal and 2 on target.
Atletico's match against Athletic Bilbao was very intense. Correa's earth-shattering shot in the 10th minute broke through Villarreal's goal. Alberto Moreno's shot hit the upright. Lemar sent a handball to the point, but Moreno's penalty was saved by Oblak. Although Parejo scored a shot, he was ruled invalid for a handball foul. However, Paul Torres then equalised for Villarreal. In the second half Alberto Moreno single-handedly pushed the ball and Condobia scored to save Atletico. In stoppage time, Condobia was sent off in two yellows and one red. The two sides ended up in a 2-2 draw. Atletico drew and conceded 2 points. Atletico's situation is becoming increasingly awkward. Simone, who has a sky-high annual salary, has been questioned a lot.
In the standings, Real Madrid still occupy the top position, with a total score of 49 points. After winning the match, Sevilla reached a total of 44 points, making them Real Madrid's strongest title contenders. Although Sevilla has 5 points less than Real Madrid, they play 1 game less than Real Madrid, which is not a big gap. Real Betis is ranked 3rd with 34 points. Atletico, on the other hand, scored only 1 point and the total number of points was 33, ranking 4th. Real Sociedad was ranked 5th with 33 points. As for Barca, it ranks 6th.
