Uche Agbo’s Granada CF have been relegated from La Liga after they suffered a 2-1 defeat to Real Sociedad at the Estadio Municipal de Anoeta on Saturday.
Granada hired former Arsenal defender, Tony Adams following the sacking of Luis Lucas Alcaraz González, but little or nothing changed about their fortunes.

Adams have now lost four matches on a bounce scoring conceding nine goals in the process and scoring one ( against Sociedad).
The team have also failed to win in nine mathces and picked only one point from that run of games.
Granada needed a win to keep their hopes of staying in La Liga alive, but were already trailing at half-time after Carlos Vela scored for the home side.
Adrián Ramos restored parity 2o minutes into the second half and it looked like they were on their way to picking a point; the first since a goalless draw away to Deportivo La Coruña in early April.
However, that dream dashed by Juanmi’s 85th minute strike, to restore the home team’s lead which also snuffed out any chance of El Graná closing up the ten-point gap they needed to confirm safety, with only three games before the curtains drop this season.
