2019-2020 Copa del Rey Thread

Sevilla FC travels to Galicia tomorrow to face Bergantinos. Lopo picks a strong squad to start our 2019-2020 Copa campaign. This will be a good chance for the boys to bounce back after Sunday’s disappointing loss. New in the tournament this year. It’s a single elimination round. You lose your out. No away goal rule either.

Probably a good guess. I think Lopez gets a run out though. Move him into Torres’ spot similar to the Europa game.

Also, I’m trying to imagine a Brittish accent saying, “I reckon.” haha You might have to record that audio and add a “fixin to” to go along with it.

Is the game on anywhere in the US?

Sevilla is knocking the ball around nicely, not many chances though. Kounde’s goal came from a set piece. I missed it. It is raining a lot and the field is terrible

No i don’t think so. I had to resort to a dodgy stream, but it’s really bugged now so i dropped it.

We’re 1-0 up through a Kounde header from a corner. Now we’re just playing some boring sideways passing, possession football.

I’m using an IPTV stream that’s perfect!

Terrible conditions but that’s no excuse. We need to step this up and get some shots in instead of just playing sideways.
I’m starting to see why Dabbur doesn’t play every week.

Haven’t watched the 2nd half, but Dabbur on the left doesn’t work. Don’t know why Lope keeps trying that.

If this rain keeps up they will be playing water polo soon.
I bet Depor are wishing they had not agreed to this game, the pitch is getting ruined.

The conditions are terrible. Our ability to attack sucks, but we are moving through anyway.

Not pretty but a wins a win I guess. On to the next one!

Here in the US, “I reckon” is commonly associated to the southern American (which I am) and is often poked fun at. “Fixin to” is another one of those sayings.

The possible teams Sevilla could face in the next round:

Second Division B (20): UD Logroñés, Yeclano Deportivo, CD Ebro, Marbella FC, Unionistas de Salamanca, RC Recreativo, Cartagena FC, Real Murcia, UD San ​​Sebastián de los Reyes, Badalona CF, UCAM Murcia CF, Pontevedra CF / UD Ibiza, Barakaldo CF, Cultural Leonesa, CD Badajoz, Haro Deportivo, Mérida AD / La Nucía CF, Rayo Majadahonda, Club Gimnàstic and Orihuela CF.

Third Division: (8): Real Jaén, Club Portugalete, UM Escobedo, Zamora CF, AD Ceuta, Sestao River, CP Cacereño and UD Tamaraceite.

Escobar(edo) it is!

Long? Probably what a 2 hour plan ride? That’s nothing :slight_smile:

WORLD CLOCK: 0600 EST / 1200 CET / 2200 AEST

Our CDR campaign resumes with the Round of 32, as Sevilla travels to Cantabria to play against Escobedo — the 4th division team who eliminated Málaga last round. As the competition has changed to single elimination matches until the semis, this one can become tricky if Sevilla once again forget to pack their shooting boots. Lopetegui has called up a strong squad of 20, stating: “We aren’t thinking of giving anyone opportunities.”

Projected XI: Bounou; Navas, Kounde, Carlos, Reguilón; Gudelj, Jordán, Banega; Munir, De Jong, Ocampos.

¡Vamos chicos!

Didn’t see the match but just checked the scoreline. Checked the score and nice to see us score some goals. It will give the team more confidence. Vamos Sevilla!
