Spain’s La Liga kicked off at the week-end with games over three days, marked by certain controversy as some games were played at 11.00 pm, to suit TV schedules.
 
 This move was not popular with players or fans and will only be repeated once more next week-end, thereafter returning to normal playing times ( at least, for Spain!)
 
 Málaga played the first game of the season, winning 0-1 away, the goal scored by the youngest player ever to do so in the league and also on his debut for Málaga, the Cameroon player, 16-year-old Fabrice Olinga.
 
 Barcelona got off to a great start with their new coach, winning 5-1 against Real Sociedad. On the other hand, Real Madrid let slip a victory at home, only being able to draw 1-1 with Valencia.
 
 There was a cracker of an opening game in Bilbao where the home side went down 3-5 to Betis.
