Source: Spanish Soccer /
The Spanish League - Liga - & season 2009 /2010 ended tonight for 10 teams as they played the Saturday Round 38 games, which the rest scheduled for tomorrow. The conclusions tonight are the Sevilla FC pick up "in extremis" the 4ºth Champions League table spot over Mallorca & that Getafe joins the latter for the Europa League table positions.

MALLORCA needed to win & have Sevilla FC lose or draw to grab the 4ºth Champions League table spot. They did the job defeating ESPANYOL 2-0 with goals from VICTOR in the 23rd min & SUAREZ in the 77th min. However, Sevilla FC won their game & snatched their Champions League dreams away as they finish 5th on the table for the Europa League.

SEVILLA FC needed to win to take away the Champions League 4ºth table position from Mallorca & they did this in the very last minute when RODRI scored in the 93rd min to give Sevilla FC a 2-3 victory over ALMERIA . It was an exciting game that went to the wire with KANOUTE scoring in the 15th min & CHICO an own goal for Sevilla. Almeria kept coming back & equalized twice via SORIANO in the 43rd & ORTIZ in the 78th min. Sevilla got nervious & lost Negredo to a red card & just when everything was lost for Sevilla & Champions miles away, Rodri scored the winner in the last moment! Now it is onto the Spanish Cup Final for Sevilla against Atletico de Madrid on Wednesday.

ATLETICO DE MADRID received GETAFE with their heads in next Wednesdays Spanish Cup Final against Sevilla FC & put in a substitute team to "logically" go down 0-3. Getafe with this win make history as they reach the Europa League 6th place on the classification table. SOLDADO scored two goals in the 13th & 53rd min , along with PAREJO in the 86th min. Congratulations to Getafe!

ATHLETIC DE BILBAO won 2-0 DEPORTIVO with goals from young MUNAIN in the 19th min & JAVI MARTINEZ in the 78th min. However, the news was the "hanging of the boots" of goalie ARMANDO & veteran ETXEBERRIA (above) who both said good-bye to their crowd with tears.
REAL ZARAGOZA & VILLAREAL played out a 3-3 draw with the latter staying at the doors of the Euro table positions. A rough & tumble game with hard tactics & hard knocks. Goals for Zaragoza came from ELISEU, COLUNGA & PULOIDO, while for Villareal CAZORLA scored twice along with ROSSI.

Tomorrow the last 5 games of Round 38 will be played with Real Madrid & FC Barcelona in action to decide the Championship, & regretfully, decide the 3 teams that will go down to 2ºDivision. Surf into SFS late tomorrow night for all the details.
