Deportivo are close to a place in the UEFA cup after beating Olympique Marseille 2-0 in their Intertoto Cup final. Joaquín Caparrós's side had most of the first half but couldn't find a way through a packed defence. Only Rubén caused any problems for Carrasso, and Mendoza was a menace on the counter-attack at the other end.

The Galicians finally took the lead though midway through the second half when Rubén collected Luque's long cross and drilled a low shot across the keeper. Niang came close to equalising soon afterwards, but with three minutes to go young substitute Iván Carril ran through on to Sergio's pass and shot wide of the keeper. It could be an important strike, and with no away goals the French side will now have to score three in a fortnight's time.
