Youssef El Arabi's hat-trick snatched a La Liga lifeline as Granada hammered Levante 5-1 to climb out of the drop zone and consign their relegation rivals to the foot of the table.
Isaac Success, El Arabi and Ruben Rochina all found the net in a first-half blitz that stunned the visitors and all-but sealed victory by the break.
Ruben Garcia hit back for Levante with less than 10 minutes to play, only for El Arabi to convert his second spot-kick three minutes later.
And in the third minute of added time El Arabi struck again, to rub salt into the open wound for the lacklustre and dejected visitors.
Granada climbed out of the bottom three moved them one point ahead of Sporting Gijon with just four games of the season to play.
