The 19-year-old youth squad was the only joy of a night to forget in Montjuic
He Sevilla FC breaks its streak of three games without losing in the league after the defeat suffered against Barcelona in Montjuic. Once again, the red and white team was overwhelmed on a big stage and continues to feed its black statistic of 22 years without knowing the victory at home against the Catalans. And the Sevillistas conceded a little hand (5-1) against the LaLiga leader, in addition to losing Ejuke for an indefinite period. The Nigerian had to leave during the first half of the match after falling to the ground and putting his hand on his hamstring.
The only positive note of the meeting, drawing on optimism, was Stanis Idumbo’s goal in the 87th minute. The 19-year-old player used personality and speed to get rid of the culé defense and score his first goal in an official match with the Sevilla jersey. A great long pass from Badé to Idumbo who started from his field and stood one-on-one against Iñaki Peña.
The Belgian winger had only enjoyed a few minutes against Girona and it was the second time that García Pimienta trusted him. So, Idumbo came on in the 69th minute for Agouméalthough in reality he would occupy the position left by Suso after having to leave due to injury. Regarding the performance of the Belgian, the Sevilla coach had a few words in the press conference after the duel, in which he assured that the footballer “is prepared” to continue adding minutes with the team: “He came out in a difficult moment, but he was rewarded with the goal. He is ready to play with us».
