Leganes are relegated from La Liga as Espanyol secures their survival

As Espanyol hosted Las Palmas and Leganes welcomed Real Valladolid to the city, the lowest four teams squared off in a massive double header. Espanyol was just one point ahead of Leganes entering the match. With the victories, both teams fulfilled their end of the agreement; nonetheless, Espanyol's remarkable escape from relegation was made possible by a contentious victory in Catalonia.

As they fought to the very last to ensure their survival, Borja Jimenez's Leganes have been among the best sides in La Liga in recent weeks. They more than lived up to expectations on the last day, as goals from Juan Cruz, Yan Diomande, and Javi Hernandez put them ahead 3-0 at the break. Espanyol's struggles against Las Palmas made things more difficult. A contentious penalty ruling allowed Javi Puado to slide home from the penalty spot. Later substitute Pere Milla scored a second late on, giving the hosts something to cling to. If other outcomes go their way, Espanyol might finish in 14th place.
