SPANISH LEAGUE - FOOTBALL | ROUND 29 SUNDAY GAMES RESULTS

SPANISH FOOTBALL LEAGUE action tonight with all seven games left of Round 29 scheduled. Here is a brief summary of match events, the results & the scorers.

La Liga
Racing - Real Sociedad

Great match between RACING DE SANTANDER & REAL SOCIEDAD with the home team taking the three points with a 2 - 1 result. A hard days work by both teams that saw individual actions sway things to one side or the other during the game. It was Racing that got ahead in the 42nd min via KENNEDY that "forced" Real Sociedad to risk more & look to equalize. Their efforts came to fruit with the equalizer for Sociedad coming via GRIEZMANN in the 72nd min, but young GIOVANI got the winner for Racing in the 77th min. 


Spanish Soccer
De Las Cuevas scores for Sporting

Important win & three points for REAL SPORTING DE GIJON winning ALMERIA 1 - 0 thanks to the only goal from DE LAS CUEVAS early in the 13th min. Sporting breathe some relief as they  are fiercely fighting  to stay out of the relegation zone of the Spanish League ladder.

Soccer
Xavi Torres for Levante

DEPORTIVO A CORUÑA lost at home to the much improved & positively transformed LEVANTE 0 - 1 with a last moment winner by RUBEN SUAREZ in the 90th min. A result that morally breaks your spirit as in the case of Deportivo who saw all their hard work slip in the end.

Futbol Español
Hercules - Osasuna

Big goal scoring match with HERCULES receiving a "Football beating" by OSASUNA 0 - 4. The goals for the visitors came via CAMUÑAS in the 10th min, NELSON in the 35th min, VADOCZ in the 59th min & SOLA in the 67th min. No much to add, the score line says it all. So much so, that Hercules Coach Esteban Vigo was sacked after the match!

Rondon scores for Malaga FC

MALAGA FC finally got their act together & gave some joy to their fans after defeating 2 - 0 RCD ESPANYOL as they desperately fight to get out of the relegation zone of the Liga Ladder. Today they took a small step forward with Malaga player RONDON putting in a grand performance with two goals ( 7th min & 25th min) to help give Malaga three precious points.

Javi Martinez battles with Rossi of Villareal


ATLETICO DE BILBAO
lost 0 -1 to VILLAREAL thanks to the visitors great goalkeeper Diego Lopez & their two Central Defenders Gonzalo & Musacchio, that stopped every Bilbao attack & neutralized the dangerous Bilbao forward Fernando Llorente.

Villareal left their attacking nature aside to brilliantly place a tactically defensive set up that frustrated & halted Bilbao the whole match. The winner came in the 58th min via M.RUBEN & it was enough to secure the victory.


La Liga
Valencia Cf - Sevilla FC


VALENCIA CF lost 0 - 1 against SEVILLA FC & in doing so the 3rd place of the Spanish League table to Villareal. The home team played well & were very unlucky to not have at least finished with a draw. The game was action packed with three posts, Sevilla player Negredo in the 23rd min & then Valencia with Jonas in the 51st min & Mata in the 57th min hitting the "wood works".

The winner came for Sevilla via RAKITIC in the 70th min , while Tino Costa could have equalized for Valencia in the 93rd had he not missed a clear chance.  

The Spanish Football League takes a week break as the Spanish National Football Team has mid week & weekend Euro 2012 qualifying duties.

SPANISH LEAGUE - LA LIGA | ROUND 29 SATURDAY GAMES RESULTS

Three games of Round 29 scheduled down tonight  of the Spanish Football League that included the big Madrid derby. Here are "bullets" of events at the three grounds, the final results & the scorers.

Spanish League
Real Mallorca scores goal

REAL MALLORCA
defeated REAL ZARAGOZA 1 - 0 from a brilliantly taken free-kick in the 67th min by DE GUZMAN from the semi circle. Before this, Zaragoza goalkeeper Doblas cuased the foul on Mallorca forward Webo which lead to a red card to Doblas & left his team down to ten men. Mallorca scored & punished Zaragoza & took the match. 


Spanish Football
Dani Alves FC Barcelona

FC BARCELONA had pressure before their game to make secure of a victory with Real Madrid close behind on the Spanish League ladder & to put a smile on team-mate Abidal face who I´m sure was watching from hospital. The end result was a well worked 2 - 1 victory at home against GETAFE with a brief scare towards the end of the match for the home side.

DANI ALVES delivered a "missile" in the 16th min to set Barça on course. Barça controlled & created chances that were´nt fully taken.


Spanish Soccer
Bojan scores for FC Barcelona

Then young BOJAN put back on a comfortable course his team with his 50th min goal. Things looked comfortable until the last part of the match when Getafe pulled one back via MANU DE MORAL in the 86th min that lifted the hopes of the visitors, but nothing came from their efforts. Finally, just a mention, good match by the Barça defenders Pique & Milito who worked very well together.

Barça maintain their 5 point advantage over Real Madrid on the classification table.


Benzema once again for Real Madrid

The 11 year "curse" continues with ATLETICO DE MADRID losing the big local derby 1 - 2 to REAL MADRID with now 21 straight derby games without a victory for Atletico. Although Real Madrid overall deserved to win the "man of the match" was Real Madrid goalkeeper IKER CASILLAS who made - if I have not lost count - 9 crucial game saving stops that kept out Atletico & assured his teams victory.


REAL MADRID got ahead first via in form & reborn Frenchmen KARIM BENZEMA who scored in the 11th min. From this point & for the next 20 mins Atletico de Madrid dominated totally & was stopped by Casillas on 5 occasions.



Then German OZIL returned the calmness to his team with a majestic 32nd min goal that knocked the wind out of Atletico.

spanish league
Sergio Aguero  scorer for At. Madrid

The second half was mostly dominated by Real Madrid which created chances but did not convert. Then in a radical change of events & after Real Madrid had substituted Benzema, Roanldo & Lass Diarra, Argentine forward & Atletico de Madrid player SERGIO AGUERO was finally rewarded for all his hard work with a 86th min goal. The next 8 mins was Atletico attempting the equalizer with Madrid against the ropes, but the visitors held out to take another derby.

Real Madrid stay in touch - 5 points - with FC Barcelona. Atletico, well, maybe next season.

SPANISH FOOTBALL SATURDAY ROUND 28 GAMES RESULTS | LA LIGA

SPANISH FOOTBALL action today with three games of LA LIGA that belong to Round 28 with the following briefs, results & scorers. 

Football
Almeria - Atletico de Madrid 

ALMERIA are in a risky situation hoovering in the relegation zone of the Spanish League ladder, while ATLETICO DE MADRID need wins to get into the upper zone & attempt their planned objective of a Champions League position. Todays result was a 2 - 2 draw which was better for Almeria & disappointing for Atletico.

Atletico started on fire & scored first via SERGIO AGUERO in the 38th min to give great signs in the first half. However, once again defensive mistakes & concentration lapses  made Atletico pay & Almeria equalized in the 48th min via CRUSAT. Atletico de Madrid reacted & put themselves ahead again in the 60th min with another goal from SERGIO AGUERO which put the Madrid team back on course. But, another defensive mistake allowed GOITOM to equalize for ALMERIA again in the 76th min & it stay this way until the end of the match.


Real Madrid 2011
Karim Benzema again protagonist for Real Madrid 

REAL MADRID CF with Carvalho, Pepe, Xabi & Roanldo resting for the mid week Champions League match defeated HERCULES  2 - 0 in a very comfortable fashion. The visitors looked better during the first half with flashes but faded out during the second half to turn it into a monologue for Madrid.

The highlight was KARIM BENZEMA who continues his personal metamorphosis with two goals tonight with more signals that his time may be finally arriving at last. He put in his first in the 24th min & then his second in the 55th min. His "partner in crime" Adebayor missed some clear chances that could have added to the score line but was unlucky & could not join the Benzema party.

A solid team performance that now awaits to see how FC Barcelona does tomorrow against Sevilla Fc & if they can cut back the gap with Barça on the League table,  & now with their collective team mind firmly focused on the mid week clash with Lyon in Champions League



Jarosik for Real Zaragoza


REAL ZARAGOZA are deep in their own particular battle to get away from the relegation zone & made an important advance tonight defeating VALENCIA CF 4 - 0. Real Zaragoza played a superb match & were far the better team, while Valencia looked "lost" & "out of place" suggesting that their elimination from Champions League by Schalke 04 mid week had left its effects on the minds & body of the Valencia players.

Zaragoza got ahead very early with a header from JAROSIK in the 4th min & just kept getting better & better. ANDER HERRERA scored the second in the 39th min from a Uche pass when the former broke apart the Valencia defence & scored under the goalies legs.

Things got worst in the second half for Valencia when a penalty was called in the 63rd min that lead to a red card to Valencia CF defender Stankevicius to which GABI converted for the Zaragoza third goal 2 mins later. With Valencia down to 10 men & Zaragoza on a rampage the fourth goal came via another penalty to which GABI again converted in the 74th min.
