Deportivo la Coruna sack coach Parallo

Xinhua,February 04, 2018 Adjust font size:

MADRID, Feb. 4 (Xinhua) -- Deportivo la Coruna confirmed on Sunday that they have sacked coach Cristobal Parallo following a poor run of results.

Parallo, who replaced Pepe Mel for the 10th game of campaign, has been in charge for 13 games in the Liga Santander, but has overseen just two wins along with three draws and eight defeats and Deportivo are currently the third from bottom of the league table.
