With one round of fixtures left to play in LaLiga, the battle for safety is fully decided with Sporting Gijon joining Granada and Osasuna in relegation despite their victory over Eibar.

Eibar have enjoyed a wonderful season in the Spanish top flight with the club currently sat in 8th place and with little to play for on Sunday evening, Sporting Gijon were handed an opportunity to save themselves.

After just 32 minutes of play Burgui opened the scoring following a smart pass from Moi Gomez but it had been far from plain sailing up to that point with the hosts controlling the game.

Jose Luis Mendilibar will be left rueing his team's profligacy in front of goal as they missed several opportunities prior to Burgui's strike.

Adrian Gonzalez was at fault twice, as he missed the target from inside the penalty area after just four minutes before hitting the post shortly after.

Sporting's opening goal was to be the only strike of the match with the second-half far less exciting than the first.

The visitors managed to hold onto their lead which handed them three points but which ultimately came too late.

Leganes and Deportivo La Coruna both drew away from home to secure their top flight status with Sporting now forced to contemplate a summer of preparations for life in LaLiga 1|2|3.
