Real Valladolid and Espanyol relegated on the final day of the La Liga season

Both teams still had a chance to survive against their relegation opponents since Elche, who had already reached rock bottom, had already fallen through the trap door. Despite still controlling their own destiny, neither club was able to escape as Valladolid was kept to a miserable 0-0 draw at home against Getafe. As Espanyol and Almeria drew 3-3 at home, the Andalucians barely managed to secure their survival, putting supporters through an emotional conclusion.

Before former player Adri Embarba struck a late penalty to draw the game and send his previous team to the Segunda Division, the hosts had a 3-2 advantage in the dying minutes. In the upcoming weeks, the battle for second-tier promotion will be settled, with Granada and Las Palmas earning automatic slots and Levante, Albacete, Alaves, and Eibar moving on to the play-off round.
