The Primera División (First Division) of the Liga de Fútbol Profesional (Professional Football League), commonly known as La Liga (The League) or, for sponsorship reasons, Liga BBVA (BBVA League) since 2008, is the top professional association football league in Spain. It is contested by 20 teams, with the three lowest placed teams relegated to the Segunda División and replaced by the top three teams in that division. A total of 59 teams have competed in La Liga, nine of which have been crowned champions. Since the 1950s, Real Madrid and Barcelona have dominated the championship. The former have won the title 31 times while the latter have won it on 20 occasions. However, during the 1930s and 1940s and in the last two decades, La Liga has seen other champions including Atlético Madrid, Athletic Bilbao, Valencia, Real Sociedad, Deportivo, Sevilla and Real Betis. Barcelona are currently back to back winners of La Liga.

La Liga is one of the most popular professional sports leagues in the world, with an average attendance of 29,029 for league matches in the 2007–08 season. This is the eighth highest of any domestic professional sports league in the world and the third highest of any professional association football league, behind the Premier League. La Liga is currently ranked the second strongest league in Europe according to UEFA's league coefficient, based on recent European performances.

Kompany struggles to understand Barca motives

Vincent Kompany says he "cannot understand" Barcelona's decision to sell Yaya Toure to Manchester City this summer.

Toure was a key player in the all-conquering Barca side of 2009 and, while the emergence of Sergio Busquets limited his opportunities last season, he is still considered among the best midfielders in the game.

Having made the move to City this summer, Kompany feels Barca's loss is City's gain and that Toure will make a major difference to their hopes of becoming an elite club in Europe.

"Toure is a natural-born winner and he will add so much to our team," he told the Daily Star. "I cannot understand why Barcelona let him leave.

"He has a big challenge to help us become one of the best teams in the Premier League and Europe. He is so important because of the great experience that he has and gives us something which we have lacked in the team."

Toure joined City for a fee believed to be in the region of £24 million in July.

La Liga: Barcelona stunned by Hercules

Barcelona were left stunned as Nelson Haedo Valdez struck twice to give promoted side Hercules a famous 2-0 win at the Nou Camp.

Valdez gave the Alicante-based outfit the lead when he poked home from a free-kick against the run of play after 26 minutes. And the Paraguay forward, making his debut for the visitors, silenced the Nou Camp with a superb second on the hour to give Hercules a two-goal lead.

Barca attacked ceaselessly in the final half hour, but came up against an inspired figure in the Hercules goal. Keeper Juan Calatayud produced a string of fines saves to deny Lionel Messi, Pedro and David Villa as the visitors held on.

They could have extended their lead at the death but French striker David Trezeguet missed an open goal.

Jose Mourinho enjoyed a winning home debut as Real Madrid got their Primera Division campaign up and running with a narrow 1-0 victory over Osasuna.

Centre-back Ricardo Carvalho netted the only goal of the game just after half-time to give Madrid the spoils in a match they dominated but struggled to finish off a battling Osasuna side. A lacklustre first half showing ended with the team being jeered from the pitch.

The result lifts Madrid onto four points after Mourinho, who has not lost a home match in eight years during his time at Porto, Chelsea and Inter Milan, saw his side held goalless at Real Mallorca in their season-opener a fortnight ago.

When asked about the reaction of the fans at half-time, Mourinho said: "They pay me, the fans can whistle when they want to. I will continue doing my job and one day try to give total satisfaction to the fans. I will never have a negative word about the fans of Real Madrid.

"I prefer the support of the fans in difficult moments, but I will never criticise. I understand that the fans want more, I also want more and the players want more.

"We've controlled the game easily, without any problems. That only thing we've lacked is some calm and clarity, which will come with time and work. I'm sure we would have been calmer if we had gone 2-0 up. I'm going away happy with the three points and with the total control of the game. I was on the bench without any type of pressure or fear.''

Valencia continued their 100% start to the Primera Division season with a hard-fought 1-0 home win over Racing Santander.

Hedwiges Maduro's header on the stroke of half-time proved enough for Los Che, who downed Malaga 3-1 in their first La Liga match a fortnight ago. Racing, in contrast, remained without a point following their 3-0 opening defeat at home to champions Barcelona.

Atletico Madrid survived a nervy finish to claim a deserved second successive league victory at Athletic Bilbao to top the fledgling table.

The prolific Diego Forlan set them on their way and Tiago looked to have killed the game off in the 80th minute. But Fernando Llorente's goal put the encounter back in the balance and the hosts could have pinched a point in the closing stages.
