Deportivo sack coach Oltra

Deportivo La Coruna, lying bottom of the Spanish league, sacked Jose Luis Oltra as coach on Sunday.

"We think it's an ideal time to go ahead with such a change," club president Augusto Cesar Lendoiro said, adding that a replacement would be named shortly.

Deportivo have won just two of their 17 La Liga matches this season.

A former coach of Tenerife and Almeria, the 43-year-old Oltra had been at the Galician club since 2011 and had led them back into the top-flight.
