SPANISH FOOTBALL - LEAGUE RESULTS | ROUND 7 SATURDAY NIGHT

SPANISH FOOTBALL action tonight with five matches played of Round 7 of the Spanish League - Liga. A high number of todays games ended in draws which is unusual. Said this, here is a brief summary of the all encounters, the results & the scorers.

Roberto ( Real Zaragoza)

VILLAREAL managed to squeeze a  2 - 2 draw from REAL ZARAGOZA in an entertaining Football game. Real Zaragoza got ahead first after dominating play with a goal from LUIS GARCIA in the 34th min. Villareal reacted & equalized via ROSSI converting a penalty in the 41st min, to which Zaragoza cancelled out 4 mins later with a goal from BARRERA.

The second half was intense with a red card to Lazaro (Zaragoza) in the 80th min, & Villareal finally managed the equalizer in the 81st min via HERNAN PEREZ. I say finally because Zaragoza goalie ROBERTO stopped everything kicked / headed at him to keep his team within the points.

Racing - Rayo

RACING DE SANTANDER managed a comeback to draw 1 - 1 with RAYO VALLECANO. Rayo got ahead in the 20th min via RAUL TAMUDO & Racing equalized via ADRIAN in the 59th min.

Raul Garcia scores for Osasuna

OSASUNA drew 2 - 2 with REAL MALLORCA in an intense game between two teams needing to get some classification points. There was a red card to NSUE of Mallorca in the 72th min which highlighted the intensity.

Real Mallorca got ahead via a penalty in the 33rd min converted by HEMED. Osasuna reacted with RAUL GARCIA scoring two goals in the 46th & 58th min to give his team the advantage. However, Mallorca equalized via a penalty ( again) which HEMED scored ( again) in the 79th min.

Canales scores for Valencia CF

VALENCIA CF managed a very important confidence boosting 1 - 0 win over GRANADA. The winning goal came from young SERGIO CANALES ( ex Real Madrid) who scored in the 3rd min from a Piatti pass. The young player is slowly finding his game, securing a place & adding value to the Valencia team.

Deserved victory as Valencia played better & could have scored more.

Malaga-Getafe

Hard fought 6 spectacular victory for  MALAGA 3 - 2 over the visitors GETAFE. The real action all happened in the 2º half with Getafe player PEDRO LEON scoring a "blinder" in the 55th min, that was answered by Malaga in the 64th min with a "crafty" VAN NISTELROOY equalizer.

The intensity grew more & Getafe got themselves ahead again in the 75th min via MIKU in what looked like a hand-ball. The verbal "ruckus" that followed earned Getafe player LACEN a red card for falling into a Demichelis ( Malaga defender) "trap". The good stuff was yet to come.


Getafe down to 10 men, Malaga player MARESCA scored to equalize in the 88th min & then the magic, Malaga Brazilian player BAPTISTA scored a superb overhead goal in the 92th min that blew the roof off the stadium. A true winner!


Malaga find themselves tonight , with 5 games of La Liga left to be played tomorrow, as Spanish Football League classification leaders.
