Tecatito ‘show’ Corona

Sevilla-West Ham experienced another recital of controls, dribbles and measured passes from Tecatito Corona, like the one he put on Munir’s head shortly into the match. Too bad the Spanish-Moroccan did not turn that delight in the center into a 1-0, because it would have meant another offensive contribution for a footballer, the Mexican, who a game is on show yes and another too, especially in the home games, since he arrived last January.

Yes Tecatito left good feelings on his debut, during the Cup derby against Betis, despite the defeat. And he has been confirming all this in practically each and every one of the seven league games and two Europa League games in which he has acted afterwards. He gave an assist against Celta, as a decisive pass can be considered the one that enabled En-Nesyri to provoke the 1-0 penalty in the league derby. He lacks only one thing that he normally hasn’t had too much of during his career: the goal.

The Aztec could also score against West Ham, but his shot inside the box in the second half was deflected for a corner in extremis by an English team defender. The Sánchez-Pizjuán applauded him a few minutes after that great play, when Lopetegui decided to replace him with the Swede Ludwig Augustinsson in the final stretch of the match to reinforce the left wing defensively.

Corona, just turned 29, arrived in Nervión with only a few months left to finish his contract at Porto. His transfer is estimated at around three million euros and he signed with Sevilla until June 2025. Later the Frenchman Anthony Martial would also arrive, who returned to the field in the last minutes against West Ham and you need to expand your performance to please the same as the Mexican, an authentic spectacle within the field in his beginnings as a sevillista.
