Relegation-threatened Zaragoza is sticking with Jose Aurelio Gay as coach for the rest of the season despite a 6-0 defeat to Real Madrid on his debut.

Gay, formerly a player with the club, was promoted from coaching the youth team to replace Marcelino Garcia for last weekend's league match at the Santiago Bernabeu. It was initially thought to be a temporary appointment as the struggling Spanish league club was in talks with several coaches, including former coach Victor Munoz.

Zaragoza are currently one place off the bottom of the table with just 12 points from 15 games.
