Seville: Sevilla falters in front of itself again (2-1)

Matias Almeida came up with eleven in some situations. Since he did not want to play with two left-sided centre-backs and had passed Kiki Salas for weeks, he placed the youngster in second place. Castrine As a starting player, having become famous at the beginning of the league, when scoring was still stifling the Sevilla team. In essence he is reserved Agomewhile laying Januzaj Starting from the right wing. This means that those who have just recovered are left waiting minutes, with the derby on the horizon, needing to relive the sensations they have experienced for months, because the saw-toothed Sevilla take one step forward and two steps back. Without their references on the field, they end up resentful, despite the fact that in many moments it gives the feeling that they have built a warrior or a competitive mask that hides their many shortcomings.

In a crazy first period, despite the lack of goals, Sevilla showed these two strange faces that were very hostile. He started to get completely out of place, not knowing where he stood. Espanyol arrived in waves into the Vlachodimos area, with the midfielders neither being pressured nor helping the new centre-back duo with their managerial duties. Carlos Romero and Kiki Garcia They tried it with throws near the post. But the plain truth was at his feet Bear MilaWho stayed hand in hand with the Sevilla goalkeeper to meet one of the greats The virtues of the Odysseywhich is nothing but sticking to this kind of football. The Espanyol striker was left dead, but chose to finish the match himself. The Devils have taken Almeida away, throwing away a clean two weeks’ work. And they called.

Sevilla started playing smartly and quickly, and recovered even more thanks to the good positioning of their pieces. The coach’s hand appeared. If the Sevilla team does not enter the first half on the scoreboard, it is because the previous law always punishes the Nervión team. Dmitrovich became the only supporter of the parrot. First he was stopped by a wonderful shot from outside the area by A Akor Adams Who is strongly opposed to being Sevilla’s reference forward. Numerous chances would come, as well as almost a dozen corner kicks, showing a dominance that was not very common for Sevilla away from home, similar to the first match of the season in San Mamés. Two minutes after the powerful Accor cannon was fired, Pique hit the post with a shot from the edge of the penalty area. Pique himself headed a strategic play that he made without knowing how the blue and white goalkeeper would shoot it.

Even Sevilla themselves were awarded a penalty in a one-on-one match Ruben VargasThey touch him inside the area and put a load on him with their buttocks, which prevents him from reaching the ball. A gray play that looks more like a penalty kick and nothing happens from there. Out of the area will definitely be noted. The clearest of the first half was yet to come. With Ijok already on the field due to Januzaj’s new injuryThe ball reached the far post after a confused attack in the other sector of the area. It arrived freely and bounced towards Suazo, who shot it into the goal and Dmitrovic took it out with his legs, running from one post to another, with some luck. No one could believe that on the Andalusian bench. The ball didn’t want to go in. The match was still up in the air. After all that had been done, the spoils were minimal. And you can escape. Football stuff that Nervion Parish is used to.

Match goals

The second half could not have started worse for Sevilla. In Espanyol’s first attack, a cross went over the crossbar The second Pere Milla post was found with no signs at allWho brilliantly headed the ball into the net, with Juanlo asking for help by leaving marks in front of and behind him. The opposition came out as the first half progressed and quickly claimed their reward, forcing the Almeida students to take another route if they wanted to at least score points. Or as happened in the half-hour of the first half, but with greater success in front of goal. The news went from bad to worse. Ruben Vargas He was injured and had to be replaced. He will miss the derby and perhaps many subsequent matches.

Alfon entered the match and Ejok was the first to try with the far right. Already playing against the wall, Sevilla revolutionized the score and were very conditional with these two substitutions due to injury, leaving the coach with few solutions from the bench after spending two windows. Ijok was one of the few who tried to find solutions individually, as he showed that he is in somewhat better physical condition than what could be seen in the second part of last season, where he was no longer the same after a serious muscle injury.

Almeida went all out with 20 minutes remainingAlthough Sevilla did not lose face in the confrontation. Agome, Godele, and Alexis are on the fieldFor the three Andalusian team midfielders. The Almeida team continued to try, with Espanyol remaining in a completely defensive position. If it was in a match with equal strengths and areas, they did not find the goal, and with the opponent in their goal, clear opportunities did not come, despite the insistence of the red owners, especially playing from the outside. But this Sevilla is suffering a blow from its team. Losing in an outing took advantage of it Roberto scores a wonderful goal into the top corner. It seemed all was over, and Almeyda was eager to see the kind of match he had missed. However, Sevilla immediately pulled one back from their umpteenth corner kick, with a curling shot from Marcao and an own goal from Cabrera. Six added by the referee. Seville is desperate. A final play with a hand in the air was cleared by VAR at five seconds. Defeat of Sevilla. once again. It hurts. Derby arrival. This is never a good time for Sevilla.
