Girona picks up speed again cruise and win without the need for boasting, as what is almost possible consider in this League after his magnificent previous season: a big one. It wasn’t the best game in terms of play. from Michel’s team, able this time to take the three points with an exercise of patience and impeccable practicality before that Sevilla disastrous and disastrous which, for the third consecutive season, is involved at the bottom of the table from the beginning and smells new the Second.
It is not true that the Nervión club has gotten worse in (almost) everything. The DJ of the pre-show delights and teaches a little to the new generations of today great songs of Pet Shop Boys, Europe, INXS o Survivor, among many other idols of the 80s and/or 90s. But this musical change seems premonitory: this Sevilla is increasingly resembling that club unable to give joy to their fans. A team that has played with fire so much ended up burning with tragedy. The Seville of ‘another year like this’, that many fans would actually sign right now. Because those dark times also date back the last two second hits, both in a row and at the end of the last century.
And look at that García Pimienta has built a striking team which begins and ends in this: the showy. Valentin Barco, the red-headed full-back of a talented left-hander who made her debut on the left, represents it better than anyone: good touch, animosity, arrivals up and zero malice. Front and back. The first half was already ending, Sevilla had collected several more or less clear chances. into the area against an expectant Girona when Bryan Gil (raises crows…) He took advantage on the left and his cross to the heart of the area was on target. Ivan Martin at will, free from marking (0-1, 41′). Barco, who was supposed to keep an eye on him, was watching the play.
Abel Ruiz could have killed the game at the start of the second half, when Sevilla was already a bundle of nerves and nothing was going well for them. Especially above. Lukebakio He was waging war (badly) on his own and Isaac Romero has been erased that aura with which he shone when he appeared among the elite, in January of this year. The Lebrija native rounded off a very bad afternoon with a penalty for handball that Sanchez Martinez He could have whistled or not, but he signaled for Abel, who has two goals in two games, to kill the game from the 11 meters (0-2, 72).another year the same: that is at least what this great Girona aspires to. And at this point, the Sevilla fans are dreaming of this.
