2-0: SEVILLA ATLÉTICO MAKE IT FOUR WINS IN A ROW WITH VICTORY AGAINST REAL MURCIA

Sevilla Atlético secured their fourth consecutive victory in an outstanding away match against Real Murcia. Oso put the visitors ahead in the first half after a great team play from the heart of the box. Ten minutes before the end, Mateo Mejía sealed the win in a match that had to be paused for a few minutes due to objects being thrown onto the field by the home fans. With this victory, Sevilla Atlético reaffirms their excellent form at the best moment of the season for Jesús Galván's players.

In the first twenty seconds of the match, Alexandro connected with Mateo Mejía in the first attacking play for the visitors, where the striker tried his luck with a shot that went wide. After both teams were evenly matched in the first quarter-hour, Sevilla Atlético tried to surprise with a set piece, as Oso took a corner kick aiming to score directly, forcing Gazzaniga to punch the ball away. Ten minutes before the end of the first half, Sevilla Atlético had a great double chance. First, García Pascual had a weak shot after a counterattack initiated by Lulo. Then, Mateo Mejía overhit a shot after a good assist from Hormigo. Pedro León, in response, had the first real chance for the home side.

Oso put the Sevilla Atlético ahead in the final stages of the first half

Sevilla Atlético kept up the intensity in the final minutes of the first half. Just before heading into the changing room, Jesús Galván's players deservedly took the lead thanks to a great team move between Mateo Mejía, Darío, and Oso. Darío, after receiving a pass from the forward on the wing, perfectly read Oso's movement in the heart of the area. With a precise finish, Oso scored the opening goal in a first half in which Gazzaniga still had to prevent Mateo Mejía from doubling the lead after another great counterattack.

After the restart, Íker Muñoz connected with a good cross from Oso on the wing and got a powerful shot away but couldn't make it two. The home side recovered from another strong start by Sevilla Atlético. Isi Gómez, after a rough tackle on Mateo that went unpunished, lifted the crowd at the Enrique Roca with a shot that missed Alberto Flores' goal. Shortly after, Andrés Castrín saved Sevilla Atlético with a crucial clearance after a dangerous attack for the home side. Alberto Flores stretched to make an excellent save, preventing a shot from David Vicente that, after touching the goalkeeper, was cleared off the post.

Mateo Mejía sealed the win ten minutes before the end

Sevilla Atlético tightened up during the best moments of the home side, and Mateo Mejía sealed the win ten minutes before the end with a great finish against Gazzaniga. Two nil down, the home fans began throwing objects onto the field, forcing the referee to send the players to the locker room, halting the match. After the restart, Sevilla Atlético stayed focused, making a final effort to secure their fourth consecutive victory with another clean sheet before hosting Hércules at the Estadio Jesús Navas in their next game.
