He Seville was proclaimed victor of the Gates of Córdoba Trophy in the batch of penalties. Isaac Romero converted the decisive shot after fail the previous one Theo Zidane. Precisely the last time that both teams met was a friendly held in July 2023, in which the white and red team won with goals from Lamela and the Lebrija striker.
New test to accumulate minutes and make adjustments for next season for both teams. Garcia Plazaas you warned, distributes loads in a week with two friendlies and planted a team of eleven youth playersleaving the stage in the second part for the ‘adults’. Iván Ania did debut after the break to the former Betis player, Guilhermein the goal.
Little history until the break beyond a penalty that Alberto Flores stopped. The referee pointed out hand of Nico Guillén with the time served asked Diego Bri. The Sevilla player held the line well and guessed the shot, soft, by Carracedo. Green and white monologue at the start, wanting to please at the debut in front of their fans. In fact, it is the only friendly that will be played at home this summer. Sevilla became looser and got worse when it appeared Nico Guillen to move the ball. Good details of players like Jesuly, Manuel Ángel and the self-confidence of Jesus Cross.
The chances came after passing through the locker room. Two teams completely different on both sides with the appearance of Theo Zidane. The Marseille native extended his relationship with Córdoba for one more season, but did not make it to the first friendly against Orlando Pirates.
We point to Isaac Romero he first release on goal in a race with Rubén Alves. Guilherme held up well hand to hand and on the rebound he hit him very tall Guridi. The people of Seville had more presence in the opposite field. He encouraged Miguel Sierra shooting with the left hand from the right a ball that went just past the post. Another detail from the youth squad, enduring the incorporation of Carmona. Guilherme deflected the full-back’s cross shot into a corner.
The visueño and Kevin Medina they hooked with five minutes left, leaving their respective teams with one less. Sevilla had another chance with a cross from the left by Peque that Miguel Sierra connected wrong. García Plaza’s team had chances to score a goal in this second half, but finally the Trophy was played in the five-penalty shootout to decide the champion. To Seville It is difficult for him to see the door, he lacks depth and fangs. Only one goal in favor, and it was from eleven meters, in the first of the three friendlies played so far. The Sevilla coach wait for reinforcements like May water.
