Sevilla FC D suffer narrow defeat to C.D. Santiponce in their second pre-season test

The Sevilla FC D played their second pre-season match last Tuesday, August 25, following their 0-2 victory over Huévar CF in their opening test. On this occasion, the Nervion-based side travelled to the Juan Muñoz Romero Stadium to face C.D. Santiponce in another fixture as part of their preparations for the upcoming season.

The match began at a high tempo, with both sides creating chances. Sevilla FC D could have taken the lead in the opening stages. Manu Cruzado came close to scoring directly from a corner, with his effort hitting the far post, while Álvaro Perea also tested the opposition goalkeeper with a shot from outside the box.

The home side also had a clear opportunity in a one-on-one situation, but Bob Almenas produced a good save to deny them. However, in the 16th minute, C.D. Santiponce took the lead following a set-piece situation near the edge of the penalty area.

Sevilla FC D maintained control of the game for much of the first half, particularly down the left flank, where they managed to create several dangerous situations. Following the hydration break, the match became more evenly contested, with the home side going into half-time with a narrow advantage.

After the break, the Sevilla side came out determined to find an equaliser and took the initiative in possession. The good work from the midfielders and defensive line allowed the team to neutralise much of the opposition’s attacking play, while an effective pressing game also made it difficult for C.D. Santiponce to play out from the back.

The second half was characterised by greater intensity from both teams. In the final stages, Sevilla FC D increased their attacking pressure and created several opportunities to level the score. Two crosses from the flanks found Alpha Diallo and Sebastian Fineman, whose efforts went wide of the target.

Ultimately, the 1-0 scoreline remained unchanged until the final whistle. Despite the result, the team showed positive signs in the defensive aspect, limiting the home side to just two clear opportunities throughout the match.

Sevilla FC D will now continue with their pre-season preparations, focused on continuing to develop as a team and consolidating their ideas ahead of the start of the league campaign, scheduled for September 20.
