Liga: Sevilla humiliates Almeria

Published:

By: Manu Tournoux

It was an Andalusian derby between fairly poorly ranked teams which took place this evening, at the opening of the seventh day of the Spanish championship. Seventeenth, Sevilla FC welcomed Almeria, bottom of the table. But ultimately, the meeting was anything but balanced, despite fairly similar starts to the championship for the two teams. Youssef En-Nesyri’s teammates won with a score of 5-1, folding the match in the first period.

In the second period, Lamela joined in the fun (4-0, 51st), while former Marseillais Luis Suarez reduced the gap on a penalty (4-1, 71st).
