MADRID - A Spanish soccer team opened a bank account Thursday to collect donations for an 85-year-old woman whose eviction last week from her Madrid apartment sparked an outcry, team officials said.Rayo Vallecano president Raul Martin Presa said his club will also donate money from ticket sales from its next home game to help Carmen Martinez pay for a place to live.She was evicted last Friday from the apartment she owned and lived in for decades in Madrids working-class neighbourhood of Vallecas, where Rayo plays in the Spanish leagues first division.Her son had used the apartment as collateral for a 40,000-euro ($50,000) loan and couldnt make payments after losing his job.Associated Press photos of the eviction spurred intense Spanish media coverage of Martinezs plight and prompted the club to help her. Rayo is also based in the Vallecas neighbourhood.Nobody likes these types of things — what happened to Carmen or to many other families, especially with evictions, Rayo coach Paco Jemez said.Evictions have soared since Spains economic crisis began in 2008. Last years forced evictions totalled 2,060, while there were 1,547 during the first six months of 2014, statistics show.Jemez said the team hasnt yet discussed its effort with Martinez, who couldnt be reached to comment and is believed to be staying with her son. If she ends up finding housing, Jemez said, the money gathered by the club will be given to another needy cause.The original idea was to help a woman who it seemed had been left with absolutely nothing, Jemez said. If some authority now offers her a decent place to live, the money will be redirected elsewhere.The case triggered criticism of Madrid*s city government for not finding a solution before the team made its offer last Sunday.Madrid Mayor Ana Botella has said government-subsidized housing was offered to Martinez, but rejected because she hoped the eviction wouldnt happen, and that the offer is still valid.___Associated Press writers Alan Clendenning and Jorge Sainz in Madrid contributed to this report.

LOUIS -- The Atlanta Braves used a two-run rally in the ninth to end their road trip with a win.Former Newcastle striker Michael Chopra fears manager Rafa Benitez could leave for pastures new if the club are relegated from the Premier League. Newcastle face the prospect of being relegated on Wednesday night if Sunderland beat Everton at the Stadium of Light, live on Sky Sports 1 HD.Chopra, who also had a two-year spell at Sunderland, ending in 2009, is worried Newcastle may struggle in the Championship with the players they have, especially if Benitez departs. Asked if he thought Benitez will leave if Newcastle are relegated, Chopra told Sky Sports News HQ: You would think that because other teams will be looking at him.People forget he was Real Madrid manager this time last year but Id like to see him stay if they get relegated because he is a great manager, and if he did stay I believe they would come straight back up. Chopra played 29 games for Newcastle including a Champions League tie against Barcelona in 2002 But if he goes I think they may struggle in the Championship because they dont have the type of players they had last time they went down in 2009. They dont have Kevin Nolan, the Joey Barton, or Andy Carroll; players that know about the Championship and players that are ready to fight for the football club. Chopra - Newcastle appointed Benitez too late There are too many foreign players where you wonder if theyll want to go to Cardiff on a Tuesday night or Brentford on a Wednesday night when its pouting down with rain. Those sorts of players wont want to do that so if they go down its not looking good for them. Chopra has questioned why fan-favourite Benitez was not brought in sooner Newcastle academy graduate Chopra, who went to the same school as Alan Shearer, is surprised the board did not act quicker to replace Steve McClaren when it became apparent a relegation battle was looming.They did it a few years ago when they appointed Alan Shearer as manager with eight games to go, and they knew they were in a position with probably 15 games to go that they were in a relegation fight, he added. Chopra turned out for the Sachin Tendulkaar co-owned Kerala Blaster in the inaugural Indian Super League I dont know why the board and everyone left it so late to appoint Rafa and you look at what hes done, what hes done to the defence and the team and how hes got them playing.ddddddddddddThe fans love him and its a shame he hasnt had more time to do it because I believe coming into the last few games of the season they would have been firmly out of the relegation battle if he had been appointed earlier. Chopra - Newcastle appointed Benitez too late Chopra played with Jermain Defoe in Englands youth ranks and admits the Sunderland strikers form makes him a candidate to be named in Roy Hodgsons England squad on Thursday.Ive known Jermain since I was 15 years old, said Chopra who counts Cardiff, Ipswich and Indian Super League side Kerala Blasters among his former clubs. Chopra thinks Jermain Defoe must be in contention for Englands Euro 2016 squad I played with him from England U16s right through to the U21s and you knew then that if you give him a chance he will stick it in the back of the net.Newcastle dont have a 10 or 20-goal-a-season goalscorer whereas Sunderland do and that could be the difference between Sunderland staying up and Newcastle going down.I think Roy [Hodgson] has to look at him because he will be looking at players who are in form come the end of the season. Andros Townsend has been unbelievable for Newcastle says Chopra Another player Id like to see go is Andros Townsend. The last few weeks and months hes been unbelievable for Newcastle and if England want to go places theyve got to take in-form players.But Roy knows the game inside-out and he will have his own thinking. Defoe has been in and out of England squads his whole career and like I said before, give him a chance and hell stick it away. If England need him, hell do a job for them.
