A delay in your originating flight return to Seville after achieving in Istanbul the pass to the quarterfinals of european league prompted the members of the Andalusian expedition to know throughout the flight that it would be Manchester Utd the rival.
With no coverage or internet on the plane, the flight commander, via radio, informed the leaders of Sevilla. In particular, it is the president, Jose Castro, was the first to know the news and to inform the rest of the expedition, according to the newspaper ‘Marca’. First in Jorge Sampaoli, the coach, sitting in the first seats of the plane. The news spread like wildfire from front to back in the seats, dropping of course like a bomb.
Resignation and at the same time enthusiasm for the challenge before them by Nervionenses, who showed that they have the potential to eliminate the most powerful teams on the continent. Not in vain, it was on this plane that twice in 2018 and in 2020 Sevilla eliminated Manchester United.
Jorge Sampaoli’s team, due to the time it arrived in Seville after the match against Fenerbahçe that led to the qualification, did not train this Friday and tomorrow Saturday they will hardly prepare for the match against Getafe at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez Muñoz key to the fight for permanence in the League.
