Atletico Madrid were held to a last-minute draw at home to Rayo Vallecano in La Liga.

Sevilla’s Papu Gomez received a red card in the 12th minute of additional time only for it to be rescinded by the video assistant referee,

with Kike Salas then sent off for a foul on Thierry Correia and Valencia handed a penalty.

But Jose Gaya squandered his chance to secure all three points with his tame penalty easily met by Sevilla goalkeeper Bono.

Valencia are now five games unbeaten and sit eighth in the table,

while Sevilla are 11th.

Points also shared as Getafe drew 2-2 at home to Athletic Bilbao.

Inaki Williams found the net within the first two minutes of the game but Carles Alena levelled the scoring for Getafe.

The second half was a similar affair with Raul Garcia

putting Bilbao ahead but Munir El Haddadi responding for the hosts.

Athletic Club have now failed to win their last three games in La Liga but remain in sixth place. Getafe are winless in four and lie 15th.
