Incredibly, Sevilla have scored their third goal in the 22 minutes since they were reduced to 10 men, which is exactly three more goals than they were able to score with 11. Alvaro Negredo has picked up a brace, and his second goal was not the least bit lucky, unlike the first one. No, this one was all about his skill.
Deportivo La Coruña Vs. Sevilla: Alvaro Negredo Puts Visitors Ahead In Bizarre Encounter
Substitute Didier Zokora, just minutes after coming onto the pitch, provided Negredo with the assist. Popping up a high ball to Negredo in the box, Zokora put it in a spot where it was easy for Negredo to take it down with his chest. He did so brilliantly, touching it right into the path of his left foot. From a narrow angle, he hit a great low shot past Aranzubia into the back of the net. The left footed strike was hit with incredible precision and power, and the Depor keeper had little chance.
The literally dozens of fans in the house have been stunned silent, as ten man Sevilla have come from 2-0 down with ten men to score three goals in 16 minutes and take a 3-2 lead. The commentators are speculating that Depor manager Miguel Angel Lotina is getting sacked in the morning, and it’s hard to disagree.
