Julen Lopeteguicoach of Seville, saved his position when all eyes were on him. The final draw at the Ciutat de Valencia avoided a dismissal that many saw as certain in the event of defeat against Unai Emery. However, led again by a great IscoAndalusians surprised one of the candidates to qualify for the Champions League with a great coach like Unai Emery. The same of Oliver Torres The pass from Malaga after eight minutes of play breathed life into a team that was clearly undergoing a rebuild after the removal of key props such as Koundé Y Diego Charleswho form one of the best pairs of central defenders in Europe.
The leaders of Seville they were determined to end Lopetegui’s tenure at Nervión after three successful years in which, under the Basque’s command, they reached Sánchez Pizjuán to a sixth Europa League and three fourth-place finishes in the League. A poor start to the league, with 12 points after facing Osasuna, Valladolid, Almeria Y FC Barcelonaalong with a convincing end to the season last season, set fire to Sevilla, who suffered two consecutive home humiliations, against Barcelona of Lewandowski (0-3) and the City of Manchester of Halland (0-4). At the end of that meeting the fans erupted against the box shouting for the resignation of the president, Joseph Castroafter which the crisis cabinet was convened.
For many, Lopetegui has already been sentenced, and a defeat against spanish his departure would be hastened, but Asteasu’s men, with a revolutionary line-up making their debuts for two youth squads in defence, consoled themselves by taking 0-3 before the break in Cornellà. The parakeets later entered the game with a controversial penalty and dismissal lick in the last stretch, so the Seville he had to suffer to win, although he won (2-3).
Despite the success, due to forms and difficulties in finishing, Lopetegui is still doubtful and went to Denmark to face Copenhagen again in the eye of the storm. The Seville they did not lose to the Danish champions, but they did not win either (0-0), although the coach was blamed for the lack of ambition to win against the weakest rival in the group. Instead, knowing that he had a team in full rebuilding, he gave the courage to strengthen a defensive system without Koundé Y Diego Charles and without signatures covering that gap with guarantees.
Because of this, he went to Valencia to the appointment before the Villarreal risked his neck again. In fact, a defeat would certainly prompt dismissal, as the idea of the supporters of the change was for the new coach to take advantage of the break due to international matches to work with the team and implement their ideas.
But Lopetegui saved his third ‘match ball’ and came close to winning, as the goal from Oliver Torres He has been ruling the game for over an hour. In the end he tied the Villarreal and, despite the fact that he suffered at the end, he added a point that allowed him to see things differently and connect three games, all three away from home, without losing.
Lopetegui buy time as the project continues to rebuild after the summer collapse. Those preparing to liquidate him are hiding a knife.
