Sevilla FC «D» falls to the league leader despite taking an early lead

It was Saudi international Abdullah Aljirafi who put Óscar Olomo’s team ahead with an early goal. However, the joy was short-lived. Just before half-time, in the 44th minute, Valencina leveled the score from a set-piece. After the restart, the visiting team took control of the game and created the clearest chances. The decisive blow came in the 82nd minute, again from a set-piece situation, where Valencina found the winning goal.

After a great start to the season with three victories, Sevilla FC D has now stumbled in its last two outings against the teams at the top of the table. Óscar Olomo’s team will look to get back on track and pick up points again in their next match away to C.A.D. Nervión on November 1st.

Starting XI for Sevilla FC “D”: Mario Rodríguez (C), Parker Byas, Gavyn Nobles, Eduardo Mangles, Fidel Moran, Javier Estévez, David Torres, Abdullah Aljirafi, Man Cruzado, Pablo García, and Borja Tellado.
Players coming off the bench: Pablo Barrios, Pedro Berruezo, Raymond Higham, and Tristan Figueroa.

Five out of five

A 1–4 victory against CD David Castedo, with a brace from Álex Piña and goals by Marcos García and Salva Ballesta. After a tightly contested first half, in which Juvenil “D” missed a penalty and went into halftime with a 1–1 draw, the team managed to recover, double their efforts, and show great character to turn the game around in the second half.

Once again, one of the positives was the participation of Ubaldo Martín, from Cadete “A,” who enjoyed another set of valuable minutes at youth level. On the negative side, Enzo Galbarro was forced off due to injury — we wish him a speedy recovery.

The Sevilla squad consisted of Gonzalo Cuendes, Ben Khamishon, Sebastian Foros, Marcos García, Enzo Galbarro, Antonio Asencio, Daniel Pro, Stefan Mario, Álex Piña, Raúl Martínez, and Alejandro Ruiz. From the bench also took part: Aaron Ang, Fran Correa, Sergio Chacón, Ángel Torres, Salva Ballesta, Lucas Serna, and Ubaldo Martín.

Narrow defeat

Sevilla FC “D” fell 1–0 away to Guillena CF in a hard-fought encounter corresponding to the fourth matchday of the competition. The only goal of the match came in the 29th minute, when the home side capitalized on a set-piece situation to take the lead — the only goal conceded by Sevilla FC “D” so far this season.

Despite missing up to nine regular players, Óscar Olomo’s team maintained the high level shown in the early part of the campaign. During the first half, the Sevillistas created several attacking moves down both flanks and tried to impose their rhythm, though they were unable to find the equalizer.

Beyond the result, the match offered a positive takeaway from a developmental standpoint, with the senior debuts of two youth players, Marcos García and Enzo Galbarro, along with the continued presence of Stefan Mario, who had made his debut the previous week — a clear reflection of the team’s commitment to nurturing young talent within the Sevilla FC Academy structure.

The starting eleven consisted of Sene Mamour; Parker Byas, Marcos García, Edu Mangles, Fidel Morán, Francisco Estévez, David Torres, Manu Cruzado, Pablo García Mateo, Pablo de la Rosa, and Borja Tellado. Substitutes Gavyn Nobles, Raymond Higham, Stefan Mario Roibu, Pedro Berruezo, Enzo Galbarro, and Mario Rodríguez also took part.

With this defeat, Sevilla FC “D” ends its initial run of three consecutive victories but remains in the upper part of the table, continuing to strengthen its competitive and developmental growth process.

This week, no match highlights will be available due to the home team’s refusal to authorize video recording of the game.

After the restart, Juvenil “D” maintained its intensity, showing both attacking flair and teamwork. Álex Ruiz (55’), Dani Pro (62’), and an inspired Raúl Martínez, with two more (63’ and 68’), further extended the advantage. Piña struck again in the 72nd, and in the closing stages, Salva Ballesta capped off his spectacular performance with two final goals (88’ and 90’) to seal a historic six-goal haul and a 2–14 victory.

The Sevilla side — Raúl Martínez, Salva Ballesta, Alejandro Ruiz, Estefan Mario, Antonio Asencio, Alejandro Piña, Enzo Galbarro, Sebastián Foros, Ben Khamison, Francisco José Correa, and Aarón Ang — once again showed great collective solidity. Substitutes Gonzalo Cuendes, Daniel Pro, Ubaldo Martín, Marcos García, Marcos Marín, Ángel Torres, and Sergio Chacón also contributed in another strong team display.

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.
