Lopetegui's nine finals

EI Seville he is already preparing his appointment on Monday in Vigo with the focus on giving continuity to its good moment in LaLiga. His triumph over him Athletic invites hope in Nervión and the challenge grows to Julen Lopetegui, who faces the remaining nine finals of the championship with the mission of emulating the closing of the campaign signed by his team in the past 2020.

The Nervionian coach also trusts that his players deliver his best version and reach this final stretch physically well despite the very high sum of minutes. After the last League, he embarked on his adventure towards what would be his sixth Europa League won and the team's potential was reflected in that triumphant closing of the campaign. Visits to the Real society, the Real Madrid and the Villarreal are presented as tougher challenges in his calendar, although the true roadmap of Lopetegui only has Vigo present. Celta will measure Sevilla's claims to be a record hunter or even a candidate for something else. And there is no better mirror than this past 2020.
