Narration: This is how we live the game
First, this is the classification
The
Sevilla
returned to winning ways in Laliga to overcoming 0-1 to the
Getafe
with an own goal
Xabier Etxeita
, which symbolized the tailspin of the azulón set after accumulating seven games without a
win.
In a match to forget both teams, with almost no chances, blunt, gray and excessively tactical, only an unfortunate action by Etxeita in the last minutes gave Sevilla three points, which took momentum in qualifying to settle in the European zone.
[Narration and statistics]
With their two-game winless streak resolved this week against Rennes, Sevilla appeared at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez with the need to score three points to return to the path of victory in LaLiga.
Real Madrid closed its series of good results last day and could not fail to get closer to the top of the table.
I had it difficult.
Opposite, Getafe was in great need.
Almost more than ever since
José Bordalás took
office
, who for the first time saw his team looming over the bottom of the First Division.
After chaining six games without victories, he had gone from European euphoria to the rush to get away from relegation.
In full depression, the Azulón coach decided to take a step back.
Accustomed to trying a suffocating pressure from the front lines to recover and surprise, he ordered his players to wait crouched in their field well enclosed and without leaving gaps to end the number of goals conceded in their last games.
Faced with this approach, Sevilla hit a wall again and again.
Despite the fact that
Lopetegui
returned to a more league eleven with the return of the Brazilian
Fernando
, the Argentine
Lucas Ocampos
,
Joan Jordán
,
Aleix Vidal
and with the return to an eleven of
Marcos Acuña
after overcoming an injury, he could never cross all the lines from Getafe in the first half.
He only got it once.
It was a set piece, at 19 minutes with a free kick launched by Jordán from far away and hit hard on the crossbar of the goal defended by
David Soria
.
He did not fire again between the three sticks.
Getafe's defensive system worked well, although it was difficult to never get close to the domain of Moroccan
Yassine Bono
.
Control of Sevilla, closure of Getafe
Going through the changing rooms changed the style of the game little, which remained flat, gray and with the same approaches: control of Sevilla and closure of Getafe waiting for an isolated goal to continue in the cage until achieving three points.
Among the thicket, only the figure of the Uruguayan
Mauro Arambarri
emerged
, the only animator of the boredom with a distant shot that Bono stopped without problems and with two robberies in the center of the field that ended up in galloping paths to the Sevilla area that were left in nothing by very little.
That was the only thing that happened until the last leg of the crash.
With the physique worn out on both sides, the last cartridges were spent.
Sevilla used them on a header from
En-Nesyri
and Getafe on a
David Timor
foul
that was miraculously saved by
Jules Koundé
.
The French defender, located in the barrier, abandoned it at the last moment to position himself on the line of his goal.
The ball appeared just in place and saved a sung goal.
There was nothing else except the unfortunate action that gave Sevilla the points.
With just nine minutes to go,
Suso
launched a seemingly innocent cross from the right wing and Etxeita, with a header worthy of a pure center forward, drove the ball into his goal.
It was the end of Getafe, which, if it was already played, ended up sunk with that goal.
Bordalás, definitively entered into crisis.
Lopetegui, smiled again in LaLiga.
