A great RC Celta is denied by Sevilla (3-4)

RC Celta

RC Celta lost against Sevilla (3-4) in a great match in which the local players deserved much more. The sevillian accuracy decided the match.

The start of the match by RC Celta was outstanding. Brave with the ball and aggressive in the recovery, the sky-blue players were soon in control. Sevilla were fortunate to take the lead from a corner kick that was headed in by Kounde.

The goal spurred on Eduardo Coudet’s players, who threw themselves against the rival goal. Iago Aspas equalized from the penalty spot after a clear penalty on Santi Mina, who had to retire injured shortly after.

With the draw on the scoreboard, RC Celta went for more and in a dizzying counter initiated by Aidoo and followed by Denis Suarez allowed Iago Aspas to stand alone in front of Bono and beat the Sevilla goalkeeper to turn the score around. The joy was short-lived and after half an hour Fernando equalized again after his shot was deflected by a local defender.

Once again, the sky blue and white team brought out all their courage and their good soccer and shortly before the break they beat the Sevillian goal again after a great assist from Denis Suárez that Brais Méndez defined with a great lob.

In the second half, the match was calm until Rakitic took advantage of a rebound in the area to equalize again. Celta was not satisfied with the draw and sought to take the three points, but in a counterattack near the end Papu Gomez put the final 3-4.
