What a beautiful pass-and-move goal by Villarreal. Really miss this type of play at Barça, pretty much died with the beginning of the Neymar years, and almost extinct under Valverde.

About 7:50 into video.

(also check out the nice piece of skill in the previous attack by Sansone)

Rubi leads SD Huesca to promotion, the first time in their history playing in La Liga as well.

I read though Rubi will be Espanyol's new manager for next season though.

Congrats to Huesca and Rubi.

We'll have a newcomer in La Liga for the third straight season after Leganes and Girona were promoted in previous two years. The last time this happened was in mid 90s when Compostela (1994), Merida (1995) and Extremadura (1996) were promoted in consecutive seasons.

This are also interesting facts:

Huesca is only 139th most populated city in Spain while relegated teams were all coming from the 20 most populated municipalities.

From the 32 most populated cities only 7 are confirmed to have a team in Primera next season (though Zaragoza, Valladolid or Gijon could also be promoted).

Leo Franco will be Huesca coach in their first season in La Liga. He knows the club where he finished his playing career in 2016 and was part of the club's board over the last two years but this will be his first coaching experience so it will be really interesting to see how he'll do.

Another Huesca news. Cucho Hernandez will stay on loan with them next season. Really interested to see how he'll do in La Liga.

Morocco's first choice keeper is a backup at Numancia. Read that yesterday. Why isn't Bono from Girona in goal?
