relegation

Auxerre recorded their first victory of the season, climbing out of the relegation zone in the process.

United salvaged a 1-1 draw, but still remain in the relegation zone.

My favourite team is nearing relegation.

Against seemingly insurmountable odds, the club avoided relegation.

A win tonight is vital to stave off the threat of relegation.

If the new manager can't get a tune out of the players, the club will soon fall into the relegation zone.
