En-Nesyri returned from the African Cup plugged. With two goals in his first start, the Moroccan international emerged as Sevilla’s savior, winning its second Liga game since the arrival of Quique Sánchez Flores and resting the table in the match to avoid relegation a team accustomed to . more about celebrating titles than suffering in the basement of the table. Isi, Rayo Vallecano’s best man, led his team’s reaction by tying and pulling his team through the second half in search of a tie that never came.
With Sergio Ramos and Suso suspended, the Andalusian side looked to end a run of bad results that has lasted since December in the Liga. Sevilla haven’t won since Quique’s debut and in Vallecas they did it again.
[+] Watch the match summary:
Although Nyland got the first scare, the visitors were ahead on the scoreboard at the break thanks to two goals from En-Nesyri. Marcao’s miss in a dangerous area led to Camello’s first chance, though the Brazilian central defender blocked the Rayista striker’s shot with his thigh. Sevilla soon gave a warning, as Isaac had a good chance in the 17th minute when he stayed in front of Dimitrievski, but he couldn’t finish.
But En-Nesyri would get it two minutes later after a rebound from Aridane. One from Fez beat the local goal from low and first, giving the advantage to the Sevillistas. But Quique’s team had a weak point in defensive balance and Rayo equalized after ten minutes with a shot by Isi after a cross from Espino.
The tables are back on the scoreboard. But Sevilla’s intention was to lead the game. En-Nesyri almost made it 1-2 when he forced a pass from Isaac to finish, although the partnership would be repeated on the stroke of half-time after a tackle started by goalkeeper Nyland. This time the Moroccan did not disappoint…
In the second half, Rayo pushed for Isi’s flag, which met an inspired Nylan. Sevilla had a difficult time in a period where, however, Ocampos grabbed the third with a ball on the post and another chance for En-Nesyri, the man of the night.
