"Sevilla" without A. Martialio stumbles in Barcelona © JumpStory

„Sevilla“ does not maintain the pace of Madrid's „Real“ in the Spanish league.  The Sevilla club played 1:1 away with Barcelona's „Espanyol“ team.  After the first half, it was Julen Lopetegui's pupils who took the lead - a precise shot by Rafa Mir in the 36th minute put the team ahead, but before that an unpleasant episode occurred: Anthony Martial had to be replaced due to a knee injury.  In the second half, the home team pressed their opponents and it paid off. „Espanyol“ goalkeeper Sergio Darderas equalized the score in the 50th minute.  To make matters worse, Jules Kounde received his second red card of the season in the 76th minute for unsporting behavior and will have to miss several matches.  "
