He Seville could not see his dream of winning his second European Super Cup come true and fell to him Bayern Munich, champion of the Champions and currently the best team in the world, not without leaving a lesson in resistance, enduring like the greats and even hurting the German team at times, which won thanks to a goal in extra time of Javi martinez.
Because the team of Lopetegui, on top of that less shot than his rival, began surprising the German giant in the first minutes. The Bayern the intelligent departure of the Andalusians, experts in knowing how to compete and in hurting their rivals. With spaces, Jesus Navas attacked a gang in which there were doubts as to whether Praise or Lucas Hernandez they were going to occupy the side. In the end, the former mattress maker did it and the palatial veteran, about to turn 35, started the motorcycle to hit before anyone else. A center of his to the area one of the times he won the position, he lowered it fenemonally De Jong head on for what Rakitic, when he was about to finish, received the lack of Praise. The English Taylor decided the penalty spot and Lucas Ocampos I do not forgive. The Argentine's hitting, low and to the right of Neuer unleashed the momentary madness of the Sevilla fans, just about 500 brave in the stands of the Puskas Arena.
Sevillans rubbed his eyes. He beat Bayern in a final, but he had to prepare for the worst. Those of Flick it was clear that they were going to tighten and its roller when it works is difficult to brake. So it was. With a possession and an infernal attack rhythm he was putting the Seville near Bono, who was starting to have a job. Müller He already forgave at 21 minutes with everything in his favor and Pavard he also finished off with everything in his favor.
The clearest was a heads up of Lewandowski who saved the hero from the Europa League. I would not forgive the Bavarian box to the next. A perfect maneuver with a back pass at the first touch of the Pole to Goretzka culminated a great play mark Bayern. 1-1.
He Seville he resisted the German avalanche as best he could, which followed in the first minutes of the second half. Among the race of its defenses, with physical display of Kooundé and Diego Carlos, and the VAR, which above all annulled a goal that had music, those of Lopetegui they stood up and when they could they showed their teeth. And he did it in this period through En-Nesyri, which came out by De Jong in a clear bet on the race to space. This is how the Moroccan he saved had a very clear hand in hand Neuer in '87, which would have prevented the extension and, with it, more suffering.
In the added time the Germans continued their business, while the Seville he did not renounce those cons that could surprise. Jordan tried and In–Nesyri again he brushed against it in another run that ended with the ball on the post after hitting the foot of Neuer. But it all ended after the notices of Kimmich and Tolisso. A corner ended with a shot from Alaba who rejected Bond and the loose ball was hunted headlong by the newcomer Javi martinez.
He Seville He tried to the end, but his forces already failed him against a great rival before whom he fell, yes, but standing up to the pride of his own.
