體壇英語(yǔ)資訊：Alcacer at the double as Barca win again

MADRID, Nov. 4 -- Paco Alcacer went from being the forgotten man at FC Barcelona to the hero of the night as he scored two goals that gave his side a 2-1 win over Sevilla in the Camp Nou Stadium.

Alcacer was a surprise inclusion in Ernesto Valverde's starting 11, but repaid the faith his coach showed in him with a goal in each half. The striker showed the goal-poaching ability he produced at Valencia to get in ahead of the Sevilla defense and produce two first time finishes.

Guido Pizarro's header had brought Sevilla onto level terms, but Barca deserved the triumph which means they have won 10 of their first 11 matches of the season and temporarily open up an 11 point gap over Real Madrid.

Valencia remain four points behind Barca after they claimed their seventh consecutive win in the Liga Santander as they defeated Leganes 3-0 in the Mestalla Stadium.

Dani Parejo's intelligent free kick under the defensive wall, put Valencia ahead in the 14th minute, but it was not until the second half that they made the game safe with a headed goal from Rodrigo Moreno and a late penalty from Santi Mina.

Valencia have now scored 30 goals this season with an average of almost three goals a game.

Atletico Madrid again failed to convince with another stuttering display away from home in which their strikers were once again disappointing and Antoine Griezmann was replaced by defender Jose Gimenez with 10 minutes to play.

However, a Thomas Partey free kick in injury time gave Atletico a 1-0 win away to Deportivo la Coruna and three points they barely deserved.

Finally Christian Santos needed less than a minute to score the goal which gave Deportivo Alaves their first home win of the season as they beat Espanyol, who have yet to win away from home, 1-0 in Vitoria.
