WITH JUST TWO MATCH DAYS REMAINING SEVILLA FC'S FATE IN THEIR OWN HANDS TO REACH THE UCL LAST 16

It didn't happen last night as hoped at the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán with the return of the Champions League at home with 100% capacity. The visit of LOSC Lille, after the draw in France, with a win would not only have meant securing second place in Group G but also closing in on the leader after the setback for FC Salzburg in Germany against VfL Wolfsburg. The turnaround from the French side, after the goal from Ocampos, left the white and reds in last place at the end of the fourth matchday, but with the enormous advantage of continuing to have their fate in their own hands to reach the last 16. 

Therefore, the equation despite everything is simple. If Sevilla FC win against VfL Wolfsburg at the Sánchez-Pizjuán and then finish the group stage by defeating FC Salzburg in Austria, Sevilla will be in the next round of the biggest continental European competition having obtained nine points, with it even possible to secure first place. At the same time, with the tight situation of the group, Julen Lopetegui's side even have the mathematical possibility of reaching the last 16 with seven points. A win against the German side and drawing in Austria, although of course the chance of progressing with this equation falls. 

Thus, despite not having won yet in the 21/22 edition of the Champions League the white and reds can be a team in the last 16 after getting six points in the next two and final games. The first step will be on Tuesday 23 November at 21:00 in Nervión.
