Earlier, Atletico Madrid had won 1-0 at Valencia following a late own goal from Toni Lato.

Diego Simeone’s men, who beat Barcelona last week, finally got the breakthrough with just 11 minutes left when Yannick Carrasco’s low cross bounced off Lato’s knee and past Valencia keeper Jaume Domenech.

In first-half stoppage-time, Boye collected a second yellow card, and Alvaro headed an equaliser for Cadiz after 55 minutes.

Angelino (29) and Christopher Nkunku (47) were on target for the hosts either side of half-time, before Fabian Klos set up a tense final 15 minutes.

Borussia Dortmund, though, lost ground following an unexpected home defeat by Cologne which leaves them four points off the top in third.

Ellyes Skhiri scored in each half for the visitors, with Thorgan Hazard’s late effort not enough to spark a comeback as a first win of the season moved Cologne out of the bottom three.

Borussia Monchengladbach are seventh after a 4-1 home win over bottom club Schalke.

Florian Neuhaus’ opener was cancelled out by Benito Raman, but Oscar Wendt had the hosts back in front before half-time.

Juventus missed the chance to close up on the Serie A leaders after a 1-1 draw at promoted Benevento – where Alvaro Morata scored and was later sent off.
