Great way to finish off the home schedule - by throwing a party on the pitch for the fans partying in the stands. Villarreal dominated the proceedings and won comfortably, 2-nil. In the process, although their second-place position is not going to change, they picked up two points on both leaders Madrid and third place Barcelona, making their season that much more impressive. Goals from Javi Venta (I swear I was thinking he was going to score today!) and Pires (two weeks after I thought he would come up big) just before the half secured the win. Excellent match!
