MADRID: Unfancied Rayo Vallecano kept up its push for a European place by beating bottom club Real Valladolid 1-0 in La Liga on Friday. The Valladolid defense misjudged a cross from the right and Alvaro Garcia controlled the ball before lashing it between the legs of the goalkeeper in the 71st minute. Rayo’s unbeaten league streak was extended to a club record nine games. It was up to sixth on the table, four points ahead of Girona, which plays at Athletic Bilbao on Saturday.

With the top six teams assured of European football next season, Rayo winger Isi was upbeat about the club’s chances. Agencies
