Getafe came from behind to beat Real Sociedad and Levante have dropped to the foot of the table after being thrashed 5-1 at Granada

Granada moved out of the La Liga relegation zone after thrashing fellow strugglers Levante 5-1 on Thursday.

Yousef El Arabi's hat-trick - including two penalties - not only ensured Granada hammered their relegation rivals at home, but also sent Levante to the foot of the table.

Isaac Success and Ruben Rochina also hit the target for rampant Granada, who moved into 17th place, one point ahead of Sporting Gijon with four games to play.

Ruben Garcia's late goal handed Levante hope as the visitors cut the deficit to 3-1, only for El Arabi to strike twice more and end any argument about the result.
