2-0: SEVILLA FC WOMEN TOO STRONG FOR SPORTING CLUB DE HUELVA

Sevilla FC Women claimed an important 2-0 victory against Sporting Club de Huelva. Despite already being relegated, Huelva came with plenty of fight. But Cristian Toro's side's perseverance ultimately paid off.

In a scrappy first half, Sevilla FC Women had the better of the chances. Toni Payne and Arola Aparicio were lively on the wings while Cristina Martín-Prieto had some half-chances. The deadlock was broken by the in-form Gemma Gili, who found the bottom-left corner via a deflection.

After the break, Payne and top-scorer Martín-Prieto once again had chances but couldn't find the back of the net, the latter poking just wide from inside the six-yard box having been found by the former. The second goal arrived from a corner in the 57th minute. Merznik thought she had saved Pamela González header, but it was adjudged to have crossed the line, giving Sevilla FC Women a two-goal cushion. 

Elena Lozano came off the bench to make her debut

En el tramo final hubo opciones para un tercer tanto, pero con más de 800 sevillistas en las gradas, lo que más destacó fue el regreso a los terrenos de juego de Ana Franco y también el debut de Elena Lozano, que con el 28 a la espalda daba sus primeras carrerras en la Liga F. Así, este triunfo permite a las sevillistas asegurar la séptima plaza a falta de tres jornadas para el final, superando el puntaje de la pasada campaña y todavía con opciones de superarse, ya que se encuentra muy cerca del sexto y quinto clasificado.
