Madrid, June 5 (Ians) Valladolid were relegated from La Liga to the Spanish second division, Liga Smart Bank, in a dramatic finale to the season.
Valladolid ended with a 0-0 draw at home against Getafe. Coupled with other results, this led to their relegation, despite spending parts of the second half out of the relegation zone, as Almeria momentarily trailed away to Espanyol, reports Xinhua.
The games began at 9 pm local time with six teams in danger of relegation, but each held their destiny in their hands.
Despite Valladolid’s inability to penetrate a strong Getafe defense, a defeat for Almeria away to Espanyol, who were relegated last week, would have been enough to save Valladolid from the drop, simultaneously sending Almeria down.
El Bilal Toure put Almeria ahead after 10 minutes, but Javi Puado equalized three minutes later. When Romael Pierre-Gabriel gave Espanyol the lead in the 49th minute, Almeria found...

Manchester City barely had to flex their attacking muscles as they ran out 3-0 winners over Villarreal at Estadio El Madrigal. The injury plagued Spaniards weren’t a match for Roberto Mancini’s men, as a brace from Yaya Toure and a penalty from Mario Balotelli saw the Sky Blues leapfrog Napoli to claim 2nd place in Group A of the Champion’s league.
England’s most talked about team Manchester City were back in action, and it was once again the Yellow Submarine of Villarreal with the unenviable task of keeping David Silva et al quiet at their home ground – Estadio El Madrigal. Saying that though, the Sky Blues have yet to replicate their domestic form in Europe and currently sit 3rd in Group A. With just one point between them and second placed Napoli, it was something of a must-win game for Mancini’s prosperous lot, so they...

‘I don’t think it is as important to play well or not well – it is important we win this game’ – the words of Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini. Indeed, his side didn’t play well in their game against Villarreal, but they did win. They just about sunk the Yellow Submarine at their Etihad Stadium, but their football was about as creative as Ringo Starr’s song writing (a bit harsh actually, he didn’t even write it…) The visitors took the lead early on through Cani, but an own goal from Carlos Marchena and a last gasp tap in for Sergio Aguero secured the victory.
It’s been far from a dream start in the Champion’s League for Roberto Mancini’s Manchester City. They started the day with just one point on the board after two games, with Napoli and Bayern Munich on 4 and 6 respectively. In addition...
