He Sevilla FC This Wednesday he signed his ticket to the second round of the Copa del Rey after beating Las Rozas CF 0-3. An own goal from Luis Enrique and a double from Iheanacho have helped García Pimienta’s team pass without difficulty to the round in this ko tournament. The Sevilla coach has brought out a practically new team against the Madrid team and, although without fuss, he has resolved the issue with solvency.
Regarding the match, the Catalan assessed the difficulty of this type of tie: «We knew how difficult it was. In this type of games everything is very equal, they play at home, with their fans, on artificial grass that we are not adapted to. We were fortunate to have an own goal in the first half, in the second half we were more superior apart from the two goals, reaching the opponent’s goal well. We knew that if we were not concentrated and one hundred percent it would be difficult to get it».
«They are matches in which you play with a rival from Tercera RFEF, which seems like you are going to win easily, but it is very complicated, it was important to compete well. A clean sheet, we have been defensively supportive, the team has been aggressive with and without the ball. “Very happy for winning and for the clean sheet,” he added.
It has also been an important duel for Kelechi Iheanachowho has made his debut as a scorer with Sevilla, something that his coach has celebrated: «He hasn’t played for a long time, it is very difficult. I have been a player and I know how complicated it is. It’s hard to adapt. Kelechi had not played for a long time, in the first half he participated very little, in the second he had the necessary success in front of goal, he scored two goals, he played 90 minutes, which were necessary for him. “Happy with that double and has to continue improving.”
A worrying image that this tie has left has been that of Peque leaving the field of play with discomfort. However, Pimienta wanted to reduce the concern: “It’s the ankle. He told us that he did it in the first part. He will have a small sprain. There shouldn’t be any problem, tomorrow since he played the entire game he will rest, but the day after tomorrow we hope he will be training without a problem.”
