The LaLiga Santander team will end their tour of Australia against Melbourne Victory on Sunday. 

Werder Bremen 0-1 R. Betis

NEC Nijmegen 0-2 Real Sociedad

Lorca FC 1-4 UD Las Palmas

Goals from Angel Montoro, a Marko Livaja spot-kick and further strikes from Alfredo Ortuño and Momo secured the win for the Islanders, who this Saturday take part in a three-team tournament with FC Cartagena and Elche CF.

Racing Club Ferrol 0-2 RC Deportivo

After a clean sweep of victories for the LaLiga Santander outfits in Friday's action, Gaizka Garitano's Deportivo - the last of the teams to kick off - were keen not to let the side down.
