Eibar surprises a thick Seville

A goal from

, four minutes before the break, served a solid

to surprise the Sánchez-Pizjuán (0-1) and bring

down to earth

, very thick throughout the game, without ideas and that He accused the accumulated effort in his last games, the last one in the Champions League against Chelsea.

[Narration and statistics: 0-1]

After a very even first half and with few chances to score, Eibar, with a Stakhanovist approach of solidarity and order, found the prize with a good goal from Kike García, who perfectly controlled a great pass from

in the area

to shoot the Czech

, which gave way to a second half in which Sevilla turned upside down, but without clarity or success.

With five changes in their eleven after the wear and tear and the good image given in the draw at Chelsea's home (0-0) in the Champions League, Sevilla, with the novelty of the Czech goalkeeper Vaclík -he had not played since his injury on July 6 Precisely with Eibar-, he needed to win in the League again after two days without doing so, in which his rival achieved a victory in Valladolid and a draw at home against Osasuna.

However, in a very close first half, contested and with very few scoring chances,

team

was soon bothered by Eibar's advanced pressure and, although they had more of the ball, they lacked clear ideas and were unable to find ways to overcome a very supportive, serious and solvent Eibar.

So much did the Catalans overshadow an unknown Sevilla, without depth and perhaps laziness in some phases of this half, that the Andalusians only had one chance in a shot by

in 34 that was cleared by Serbian goal

.

Meanwhile, the disciplined Eibar, a very uncomfortable rival due to his pressure, his intensity and how he ran and fought each ball, followed his own, faithful to Mendilíbar's guidelines.

The Gipuzkoan team also found oil in a great pass from Senegalese Pape Diop that allowed Kike García to take off his position as a gunner and, after good control in the area, make it 0-1 by shooting Vaclík four before the break, no option for the Czech.

An overturned Seville

In the resumption, Sevilla and Lopetegui reacted.

The Basque coach first took a risk by entering Argentine winger

for center-back

and then burned almost all the ships with

and

for

and

, and with Argentine

and Dutch

for

and Munir.

Too much ammunition, although with wasted results in a second half that was very different, in which Sevilla overturned and had more options before an Eibar that defended itself tooth and nail, but never found the way, due to the defensive success of a rival that he defended himself perfectly or by folly of his forwards.

Thus, En-Nesyri was able to tie at 50, but missed by finishing high off a pass from Munir, who also failed to score any option, like

, very lost in his first start, and already in added time

and Ocampos , who missed incomprehensibly when he missed entering from the far post.

In the end, the solidarity and contention game of Eibar prevailed, just the winner due to its intensity and its guts to withstand the push of a thick Sevilla and that accused the hangover of the tie at Stamford Bridge.
