Sevilla and Salzburg drew in a match full of errors and a feeling of vulnerability.
If football were suicidal, the penalty would be its bullet.
Adeyemi
unhinged Sevilla.
Three maximum penalties caused the German-Nigerian striker.
Three times knocked down in the living room.
Three times, in just 35 minutes,
Bono
had to nail
the lime line.
[1-1: Narration and statistics]
The first, after being run over by
Diego Carlos
, he missed by a lot himself, who no longer threw any more. The second, after a childish push from
Jesús Navas
, was scored by
Luka Sucic
coldly. The third, after a spectacular infraction by Bono, who arrived late at the crossroads, was sent by the Croatian to the base of the left post of the local goal. A tragedy that was deeply wounded. Three shots and still they came out alive. Difficult, yes, to show greater madness and fragility behind. Unfit for a team that aspires to have fun in the Champions League.
And that the
Lopetegui
team had not started badly
.
Encouraged upstairs, with
Suso
overactive, with
Acuña
inhabiting the sinister side comfortably and with
En-Nesyri
constantly seeking his back to the centrals to take advantage of the high pressure of the visiting team.
Papu Gómez
had a
heads up
in the 16th minute, but he wanted to finish it with a flirtatious, and useless, vaseline that relieved an almost beaten
Köhn
.
The delirium of the penalties roused the fans of Nervion, who returned to the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán of European nights with their pristine throats and eager to push.
En-Nesyri's mistake
Seeing the shooting and the scant blood, Sevilla took a step forward. A
Wöber
, who spent some months in the Andalusian capital almost Erasmus but better paid, he sensed tenderness in the crash, and he was paired En-Nesyri every time he had the
opportunity. In a divided ball in the area, the Austrian meekly pushed the Moroccan forward. The referee
Kulbakov
, who already had the whistle on fire, also blew it. Rakitic achieved the tie and the rest was for the two teams like the water that cools the frying pan.
He started the second half with a save from Bono, a prodigy of reflexes and toughness in his mitts. Julen had brought
Delaney and Ocampos
out on the field
looking to go for the game once, but En-Nesyri, faking a penalty, blew up his coach's ambitious plans. Sent off for a double yellow in minute 49 and the team with a considerable break throughout the second half.
Lamela
entered
to shake up the offensive football of his own, to try to contain the spirit of Salzburg with his jabbing and his finesse, which with one more man on the pitch was already encouraging to attack. Sevilla had no choice but to withdraw.
Rafa Mir
took to the field to see what he could hunt. Austrians coach
Matthias Jaissle
accelerated his team with the entry of Adamu; but the Austrian kindergarten lacked the fangs to seek victory. Sevilla, without rhythm or precision, could not take advantage of such a bruised and hostile match. Game crashed at the end. Broken cards and minutes. Bono avoided a misfortune with two magic interventions in the add-on. And a little more. Disappointing debut for Sevilla and a lot to work on.
