Racing dispense with coach Mandiá

Real Racing Club Santander have dismissed coach Juan Carlos Mandiá following a disappointing start to the season, with Juanjo González placed in temporary charge. The Spanish strugglers are 17th in the 20-team Liga having won just once in their first ten league games. "The results we were hoping for haven't come and we are taking this decision while we still have time [to rescue the season]," said Racing president Francisco Pernía.
