Spoting Gijon 1-2 Real Zaragoza

Real Zaragoza continue their recent momentum by beating relegation rivals Sporting Gijon at El Molinon.

Real Zaragoza have moved off the bottom of the La Liga table after leaving it late to claim a 2-1 win over fellow strugglers Sporting Gijon.

Following back-to-back wins over Valencia and Atletico Madrid, Javier Aguirre's side started brightly and took the lead with Helder Postiga's seventh goal of the season 37 minutes in.

The Portuguese international latched on to David Mateos's nod-down an unleashed a ferocious left-footed strike from 15 yards that flew in past Juan Pablo.

Sebastian Eguren deservedly headed Gijon level four minutes into the second half and the home side should have gone ahead 10 minutes from time, but substitute Gaston Sangoy blazed over from 10 yards.

The visitors stole victory in stoppage time, as Angel Lafita tapped home from close range following a goal-mouth scramble.
