0-2! The Chinese team in La Liga played: 4 consecutive losses were on the verge of relegation zone, a life-and-death battle over the weekend

In the early morning of May 19, the 10 major battles in the 37th round of La Liga started at the same time. In a key battle related to relegation, Espanyol lost 0-2 to Osasuna away. Espanyol, with 39 points in 37 rounds, was only 2 points higher than Leganes! In the last round of La Liga, Espanyol will face a life-and-death battle: you can relegate if you win, and if you fail, you may be relegated.

As the only Chinese-funded club in La Liga, Espanyol has been ups and downs like a lift in recent years. If Espanyol wins, he will be able to relegate in advance. However, the Spaniard continued to have a downturn. In the 17th minute, Budimir broke the deadlock; in the second half, Raul Garcia won another goal, and Osasuna defeated the Westerners 2-0!

No one expected that the Spaniards would fall to this point.

After the 33rd round of La Liga, Espanyol ranked 13th with 39 points, followed by Valencia (39 points), Sevilla (37 points), Girona (35 points), Alaves (34 points), Las Palmas (32 points), Leganes (30 points), and Valladolid (16 points). It seems that there is no suspense about the Spanish relegation.

However, in the last four rounds of La Liga, Espanyol has slid to the abyss step by step:

Losed 1-2 at home in the 34th round, lost 2-3 to relegation opponent Leganes in the 35th round, lost 0-2 to Barcelona in the 36th round, and lost 0-2 to Osasuna in this round. This four-game losing streak caused Espanyol's ranking to continue to decline, falling from 13th to 17th, only 2 points higher than Leganes in the relegation zone!

Looking back, Espanyol forced himself into a desperate situation under the excellent situation of "scoring 2 points in the last 6 rounds (one of which tied Leganes) and being able to relegate". In the last round of La Liga, Espanyol faces Las Palmas at home, Leganes vs Valladolid. If Espanyol fails to win and Leganes wins, Espanyol will be relegated (in the same score, Leganes has the advantage in each other's mutual record).

The Spaniards have been hovering in La Liga and Spanish Second Division in recent years. In La Liga in 2019-20, Espanyol was relegated to the bottom; in La Liga in 2022-23, Espanyol was relegated to the bottom; in the team of Chinese boss Chen Yansheng has first-class "rebound ability", and can immediately return to La Liga in every relegation. Can Espanyol succeed in relegation this season in La Liga? The answer will be revealed in the last round of life-and-death battle this Saturday night.
