MADRID, Nov. 8 (Xinhua) -- According to reports in the Spanish press, Spanish football club, Real Sociedad are on the verge of sacking coach David Moyes following a run of poor results which has left them hovering just above the relegation zone in Spain's BBVA Primera Liga.


The former Everton and Manchester United boss was expected to be sacked in the wake of Friday night's 2-0 defeat to newly promoted Las Palmas which leaves the San Sebastian based outfit with just nine points from their first 11 matches of the season.


Those are exactly the same numbers which saw Moyes' predecessor Cheap Air Max 2018 Outlet , Jagoba Arasate sacked by the club a year ago to be replaced by the former Manchester United and Everton boss.


Moyes arrived in San Sebastian with the club in the relegation zone and was able to comfortably steer them to safety last season, but the summer saw the club fail to make the moves in the transfer market that he had expected, despite the arrival of former Elche forward Jonathas and Armindao Bruna (check), as well as central defender Diego Reyes, none of which were players Moyes had asked for.


The current season has nevertheless Cheap Air Max Outlet , been disappointing and Real Sociedad have not won at home all season, which has not helped to calm the nerves of a set of fans who were hoping that Moyes could repeat the success of former British boss, John Toshack.


Friday's performance was especially poor as 'La Real' looked incapable of stringing two passes together against a side which had only won one match all campaign and that is the main factor in Moyes' dismissal.


Former Valladolid and Barcelona B-team coach Eusebio Sacristan is the favorite to be named as Moyes' replacement, but with a home game against Sevilla and a trip to the Camp Nou to play Barca next up after the international break, he may find that the club drops into the relegation zone before they can start moving forwards.


DUBAI， Feb. 23 (Xinhua) -- Anastasija Sevastova of Latvia beat Chinese top player Wang Qiang 6-4， 7-5 in the quarterfinals of the 17th WTA Dubai Duty Free (DDF) Tennis Championships 2017 here on Thursday.


The match started in favour of the 76th-ranked Wang， however Sevastova， 26， who committed many unforced errors in the beginning， managed to turn the table by switching between slices and lops.


"Wang is very solid， she started very well， but I did not want to give her the rhythm，" said the 35th-ranked Sevastova.


Wang， who stands at 1.72-meter tall， told Xinhua that she did not feel exhausted from previous matches， "I lost some decisive points and that made the difference today， compared to my successful matches before."


Wang scored a sensation the day before when she defeated French top player Kristina Mladenovic in straight sets in the tournament's round of 16. The final of the 2.6 million dollar women's tournament will take place on Saturday.


"Women's tennis is so close nowadays， everyone can win against everybody，" said Sevastova who played an emotional style and did not shy away from shouting at herself after she made double faults or unforced errors in the DDF tennis stadium near Dubai International Airport.


Wang on the other hand retained her nerves and appeared more self-controlled. "I try to be stable during an entire match. I always want to avoid the ups and downs，" explained Wang.


The 25-year-old Chinese will leave Dubai on Friday for Kuala Lumpur where she plays the BMW Malaysian Open which runs from February 27 until March 5.
