Just when it looked like Saturday's fixture between Malaga and Villarreal would be scoreless at the interval, Jonathan dos Santos stepped up to give Marcelino Garcia Toral's side a first-half lead.
After Malaga's backline failed to properly deal with a cross into their 18-yard box, dos Santos proceeded to run onto the ball and blast a right-footed volley past 'keeper Carlos Kameni, who probably should have done a better job of protecting the near post.
The goal marked dos Santos's second of the season.
