M18: Sevilla FC - Real Sociedad [20/21] Match Chat

I tuned in 10 minutes into the game expecting nothing else but a normal 0-0 as usual… only to be shocked by the result. So I missed the first 3 goals… what a shame for us scoring and conceding this early :stuck_out_tongue:

Anyway, we were better than Real Sociedad throughout the match, but again, not killing the game off when we were 3-2 almost costed us at the later stages of the game with that amazing line clearance from Kounde.

Youssef En-Hattricky! Amazing performance by him, but without Kounde and Bono the hattrick would’ve been worthless. Every player performed very well in overall and we fully deserved the 3 points. Worried about Navas’ fitness, he must be rested as I said earlier and we should see more of Vidal who thankfully is playing very well in the recent games.

As I predicted, 10 points out of max 15 to be gained from the 5 tough matches (in a row!). So the job is more or less done, but we can surpass that and reach 11 or 13 points when we play Atletico on Tuesday. They have a fitness advantage over us because their match vs. Bilbao was postponed tonight due to heavy snowing in Madrid.

Another good news is that RM drew with Osasuna so even if it’s still a bit early to say, we can talk about winning La Liga again if we beat Atletico on Tuesday night.

P.S. We were denied a clear penalty in the first half (on Jordan) and Guridi of Sociedad deserved a red for that dangerously raised foot on the face of Diego Carlos.

VAMOS MI SEVILLA!!! VAMOS CAMPEON!!!

Yes, we have the psychological advantage and hopefully it will be superior to their physical freshness advantage. It will all depend on how we’ll approach the game, get on the pitch with the right mentality and we’ll beat them.

I still think Lope will play to sneak a win, not go for like a well played win. Which I don´t like but in this game it´s fine. Against Atlético only result matters. Also he is probably happy with a draw, and will bank on the fact that somehow we get something done to put 1 on the scoreboard.
