This past Sunday, the team earned a 1–0 win over CD San Martín at the José Ramón Cisneros Palacios Training Complex, in a well-fought encounter that further strengthens the group’s confidence. The decisive goal came in the 48th minute, when Pedro Berruezo converted from a set piece, finishing a perfectly delivered free kick from the left side.

Under the direction of Óscar Olomo, the team now boasts three wins in three matches — 6-0 vs. CD Isbiliya Balompié, 2-0 vs. Burguillos CD, and 1-0 vs. CD San Martín — with an impressive record of nine goals scored and none conceded. The statistics reflect the balance between attacking efficiency and defensive discipline that defines this Sevilla side.

Our Baby Team Enjoyed the Reyes Cup in Utrera

Excitement, teamwork, and a love for football filled the San Juan Bosco Stadium in Utrera, where our Baby Team was crowned champion of the Reyes Cup Quadrangular, a competition that each year honors the memory of José Antonio Reyes, an eternal example of talent and Sevillismo.

In this fourth edition, sponsored by Jesús Navas, the young Sevillistas delivered an outstanding performance in their first official experience wearing our badge. With smiles and the ball as the true stars, the Academy’s youngest side earned victories over CD Cantera (5–0), EMF Utrera (4–0), and CD Utrera (1–0).

Beyond the results, the participation of these Baby players reflected the essence of the club’s educational project: to teach how to compete with sportsmanship, to enjoy the shared effort, and to live the values of Sevilla FC both on and off the pitch.

The tournament, held on October 10, 11, and 12, also promoted three fundamental pillars: physical health, personal development, and coexistence among young players from different communities. In this environment of learning and friendship, the young champions proudly represented the spirit of the Sevilla FC Academy Antonio Puerta, where every training session is both a football lesson and a life lesson.

The team’s success is also a reflection of the hard work and dedication of its coaching staff, led by Álvaro Cabrera as head coach, Eduardo García as assistant coach, Francisco Díaz as goalkeeping coach, and Manuel Gandul as team delegate. Their daily commitment to teaching, respect, and the all-round development of the players was key to ensuring that the youngest Sevillistas enjoyed such a rewarding experience both on and off the pitch.

The triumph at the Reyes Cup marks another step forward in the growth of these young footballers who, with their commitment and enthusiasm, reminded everyone that being part of Sevilla means believing you can — and proving it; knowing that the future depends on you.

A debut that goes beyond the scoreboard

Beyond the result, this debut held a special meaning for both players and staff. It reflected the daily work, the enthusiasm to keep learning, and the commitment to the values that define Sevilla FC’s youth academy.

Ángel Torres, with a brace, along with Marcos García and Salva Ballesta, also added their names to the scoresheet.

Clean Sheet!

Sevilla FC “D” continues their flawless run at the start of the competition with another victory, once again keeping a clean sheet—this time on the road. Óscar Olomo’s starting eleven featured as many as seven new faces, a reflection of the team’s impressive depth and balance.

In the 42nd minute, an excellent long pass from Pablo García behind the defensive line allowed Javi Estévez to exploit the right flank, get past his marker, and deliver a final pass that Abdullah Aljirafi only needed to guide with his left foot into the back of the net. In the second half, in the 89th minute, Parker Byas’s determination in winning an aerial duel and sprinting into open space led to a precise assist for Manu Cruzado, who finished expertly to seal the match.

Three more points on a day with different protagonists but the same outcome—both in the scoreline and at their own goal—serving to strengthen the collective effort of the entire squad and coaching staff.

Starting XI – Sevilla FC “D”:
Mamour, Nacho González (C), Gavyn Nobles, David Torres, Javi Estévez, Pablo García, Fidel Morán, Raymond Higham, Pedro Berruezo, Abdullah Aljirafi, and Khalid Aljirafi.

Substitutes who came on:
Mario Rodríguez, Manu Cruzado, Javi Estévez, Parker Byas, Edu Mangles, Borja Tellado, and Pablo de la Rosa.

Sevilla FC Academy fills Los Alcores Shopping Center with Sevillismo

The Sevilla FC Academy Antonio Puerta enjoyed a very special day at the Los Alcores Shopping Center, where the passion for football and the red-and-white colors came together in an event designed for children and their families. The goal: to bring the Academy closer to the community, strengthen the Internal League, and transmit the values that make Sevilla FC great.

The day began with a warm welcome and the participation of players from Sevilla Atlético and the Women’s First Team, who answered questions from the Academy students and Internal League players with closeness and naturalness. After this cheerful and engaging exchange, one of the most anticipated moments arrived: the prize draw —cinema tickets, a JD voucher, an official ball, and tickets for the Sevilla FC vs. RCD Mallorca match— which thrilled the attendees.

Commemorative pennants were then presented to all the Internal League teams, a symbolic gesture of gratitude that helped strengthen everyone’s sense of belonging to this sporting project.

The event continued with activities tailored to each age group: the youngest enjoyed painting the club’s crest in the playroom, benjamines and alevines had fun at Galaxy Park with video games and interactive attractions, while infantiles and cadetes experienced the excitement of bowling. Everyone also got the chance to watch a short film at the cinema, summarizing last season’s activities and reliving its best moments together.

It was a day full of fun, camaraderie, and Sevillismo, reaffirming the commitment of the Sevilla FC Academy “Antonio Puerta” to its mission: to train not only players but also people, guided by the values of effort, cooperation, motivation, and commitment — with the pride of defending the Sevilla FC badge.
