  • 38' That looks like a foul for a Yellow card for Simon Kjaer.
  • 39' What an equalizer from Moussa Djenepo!
  • 41' Franco Vazquez puts Sevilla FC on the lead.
  • 46' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 49' Goal! Wissam Ben Yedder scores his 147 goal in 418 matches.
  • 54' It looks like no one’s ball. Sevilla FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
