Leganes claim historic first La Liga win
Victor Diaz scored the only goal as Leganes defeated Celta Vigo 1-0 on Monday in the club's first ever game in the Spanish top flight. Diaz steered in from a corner on 75 minutes to hand Leganes victory on their La Liga debut, having won promotion to the top tier by finishing runners-up in Spain's second division last season. Leganes, who were founded in 1928, will host Atletico Madrid at their modest 8,000-seater stadium on the outskirts of the Spanish capital in their first home game next weekend before champions Barcelona visit next month. Meanwhile, Las Palmas stunned Valencia 4-2 at the Mestalla with Croatian striker Marko Livaja netting a brace in the final game of the opening round of matches in Spain. Santi Mina headed Valencia into a sixth-minute lead, but Livaja equalised before Jonathan Viera converted a penalty and Kevin-Prince Boateng stretched the visitors' advantage on his Las Palmas debut. Mina struck again to make it 3-2 after just 34 minutes but Livaja rounded out a famous victory late on.
