Racing cling to UEFA Cup place, Zaragoza relegated

Ivan Bolado scored an 86th minute winner to fire Racing Santander into the UEFA Cup with a 1-0 win over Osasuna on Sunday.

Racing had looked set to miss out after Real Mallorca beat Real Zaragoza 3-2 - a result that sees Zaragoza relegated from the flight - but Bolado struck late on to seal sixth.

Racing will now hope to hold onto their highly-regarded coach Marcelino with Sevilla and Valencia interested in his services.

Mallorca did what they could winning their final six games with goals from Pichichi winner Daniel Guiza, his 10th goal in seven games, and strikes from Pierre Webo and Gonzalo Castro sealing a 3-2 win.

Zaragoza were sixth last season to qualify for the UEFA Cup but must now prepare for life in the second division after a turbulent campaign in which they have had four coaches.

Recreativo Huelva shared a 1-1 draw with Valladolid that keeps both teams in the first division.

At one stage Recre were set to be relegated - after Ricardo Oliveria levelled at 1-1 for Zaragoza - but Mallorca won to ease their fears.

Earlier Spanish international David Villa scored twice, taking his season's tally to 18, in what could be his final appearance for Valencia as they defeated Atletico Madrid 3-1 on Sunday.

Villa, 26, is expected to make a big summer move after watching Valencia fight relegation rather than for a place in the Champions League but he gave the club a leaving present with two goals to help his team triumph on the last day of the season.

Valencia's veteran goalkeeper Santiago Canizares is also set to say goodbye after more than a decade at the club saying he is ready for retirement at the age of 38.

Elsewhere Michael Laudrup said 'adios' to Getafe on Sunday after just one season at the club as his team drew 1-1 with Real Betis.

Laudrup guided Getafe to the Kings Cup final and the UEFA Cup quarter-final - where they were seconds from defeating Bayern Munich - but the Dane recently confirmed that he would be leaving.

Benfica and Sevilla have been mentioned as possible destinations but Laudrup refused to specify where he would be going.

After watching Bernd Schuster leave for Real Madrid last season Getafe must now search for their third coach in as many seasons.

Later on Sunday champions Real Madrid will be presented with the league trophy in a glitzy celebration party at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Real host relegated Levante who have decided to call off their strike in protest of unpaid wages and bonuses.
