Although much of the transfer talk within La Liga has been concentrated among soccer giants Real Madrid, and Barcelona, there now appears to be movement from the lesser teams of Spain’s top division.

Valencia joined Villarreal at the top of the Primera Liga on Sunday after coming from behind to crush Deportivo La Coruna 4-2 in an entertaining game at the Mestalla.

A nine-man Real Madrid rallied to beat Valencia 4-2 and lift the Spanish Supercup 6-5 on aggregate on Sunday. Ruud van Nistelrooy, Sergio Ramos, Ruben De La Red and Gonzalo Higuain scored for Madrid, which had midfielder Rafael van der Vaart ejected in the 39th minute and striker Ruud van Nistelrooy in the 73rd.
