On Saturday, only two matches of the 12th round were played in Spain. One of them ended unexpectedly in a draw - the ambitious Madrid "Atletico" played a draw with the outsiders "Real Sociedad", while in the second match, "Barcelona" unexpectedly easily beat "Villarreal" 4-0.
In the Spanish championship matches of the second Catalonia super club, Icelandic player Eidur Gudjohnsen shone. In the middle of the first half, he provoked a penalty in the penalty area, successfully converted by the most effective player of "La Liga", Brazilian Ronaldinho.
In the second half, Gudjohnsen scored himself by heading in a cross from his teammate. In the middle of the second half, Spain's national team goalkeeper Andres Iniesta scored an impressive third goal.
However, the most impressive was the fourth goal, which Ronaldinho scored with a fantastic shot.
Even more unexpected was the result in Madrid, where one of the richest and most ambitious clubs in Spain, "Atletico", only managed to get a point in a match against the outsiders San Sebastiano "Real Sociedad".
The visitors took the lead when, in the middle of the first half, forward Gari Uranga broke through between two defenders and headed the ball into Leo Franco's goal.
But the first victory this season was taken away by the Basques themselves - less than fifteen minutes after Luciano Galletti's pass, defender Ion Ansotegis sent the ball into his own net.
