Deportivo La Coruna defeated Eibar 2-0 thanks to its two defensive errors in the Spanish La Liga.
Lucas Perez scored his third goal of the season Friday after Eibar goalkeeper Xabi Irureta raced forward to the edge of the penalty area and parried Oriol Riera's shot straight to him in the 52nd minute, reports Xinhua.
Ivan Neves sprinted forward to follow Borja Ekiza's lazy backpass and stole the ball off Irureta for his third league goal in the 80th.
Deportivo lifted to provisional 11th-place with 24 points while Eibar remain in eighth on 27.
Real Madrid are the league leaders with 54 points after 22 rounds ahead of their derby clash with Atletico Madrid Saturday night, followed by Barcelona on 50, who travel to Athletic Bilbao Sunday.
