The Sevillians jolted throughout the match, unable to surprise the Champions League’s last

semi-finalist, and expected to score first against his Koundé camp, but an offside indicated

at the start of the game (54th).

Villarreal believed they may still win courtesy to Lo Celso at the very end of the game (1-0,

86th). Mir, on the other hand, was nearing the end of a last-ditch offensive to preserve his

team from losing (1-1, 90th + 7). Before heading to Vallecano, the Yellow Submarine were in

eighth place in the Europa League Conference, one place from qualification. Sevilla, in third

place, is unable to qualify for the Champions League.

After returning from the dressing room, Villarreal pressed on a penalty after a clear foul in

the area by Marcos Acua on Étienne Capoue (49′). The referee, on the other hand, did not

flinch and even kept Sevilla in the game when he decided to nullify Jules Koundé’s own goal

from a corner (54′) five minutes later. After seeing Pervis Estupian and Samu Chukwueze’s

attacks thwarted, Villarreal turned to Emery’s son’s feet: in a complex motion, Giovani Lo

Celso took the ball back with the tip of his toe to ultimately deceive Bono (1- 0.86th) .

In 90 minutes, Sevilla has its one and only significant chance. To keep the scoreline clean at

the interval, the Moroccan goalkeeper had to pull off two tiny miracles against Pau Torres

(36′) and Giovani Lo Celso (39′).

Certainly,Unai Emery’s side ultimately caught on the wire thanks to Rafa Mir’s header from a corner, which Jules Koundé followed brilliantly (1-1, 90 e +6). Villarreal has now gone four games without a win, and its European Cup hopes are slowly fading.
Sevilla FC can consider themselves quite fortunate to return to Andalusian soil with a point from the draw, which appears to be undeserved.
