Zaragoza and Deportivo drew 0-0 in a low scoring opening weekend to the new year, the point keeping the Galicians in the top six but not helping the locals move off next to bottom spot. At least new manager José Aurelio Gay was able to stop the flow of goals against his side, his changed defence only threatened briefly by central defender Lopo.
