Zaragoza too good for Sevilla
After beating Valencia in round 20 of La Liga, Sevilla lost 2-1 to relegation threatened Real Zaragoza in round 21.
With Real Mallorca winning against Villareal the loss meant that Sevilla slipped back to fifth on the ladder in what was the most surprising result of the weekend.
Valencia had a 2-nil over Valladolid and therefore cemented their third place on the ladder where they trail Real Madrid in second place by 8 points and Barcelona in first by 13 points.
Real Madrid scored its half-century of goals in this round as well in the 3-nil against Espanyol to maintain the the 5 point gap behind Barcelona.
Xerex were leading at half-time against Athletic Bilbao but conceded two goals in the second half to lose 3-2 and so the team still anchors the table.
Zaragoza's win meant they went out of the relegation zone to be replaced by Valladolid.
