Yesterday was the first meeting of Year I DN (After Navas). We no longer have the Child, but in half of Andalusia it was the early afternoon of children; The cavalcades traveled through the streets of Seville when the Nervión team began to play the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey against Almería in the Mediterranean Games Stadium. In Almería, where there is no rain forecast for today, the cavalcade of Three Wise Men is scheduled for the afternoon of the 5th. But Sevilla perhaps thought that the arrival of Their Majesties from the East had also been brought forward in the city of Indalo. That’s why he was very generous: he wanted to give away. In the first half, García Pimienta’s team gave away in abundance. They looked, in fact, like Baltasar himself, the one who is so famous for wasting balls and candy. Isaac’s early goal was excellent news: once again the man from Lebrija saw the goal, in what seemed like a definitive recovery of the trend of success. The first half was not bad at all for those from Nervión: Lukebakio preferred to put on the assist shirt, and he continually sought to create opportunities with his passes. Idumbo, at some moments, seemed playful, and even had his arguments with Saúl for not passing the ball more on attacking occasions. The spirit of Navas, in the first game of Year I DN, seemed installed on the pitch. With a huge but: we forgave too many scoring chances, and in the end all those gifts were going to turn against us. As soon as the second half began, on two occasions separated by just five minutes, Almería thanked all the Sevilla fans’ gifts with two two goals that certified the comeback. But it was the 58th minute, there was still a lot of game going on. In this second part, all of Sevilla’s solvency evaporated. But even on one of the few occasions that were clear for those from Nervión, we returned to the Christmas gift: in the 61st minute, Isaac made a mess with his dribbles, when the goalkeeper had left the goal empty, and when Lukebakio on the other side I was waiting all alone. An unforgivable gift, which once again conjures up the ghost of the Lebrijano’s lack of a goal. Things were not going to get better. Because Almería continued to appreciate the generous spirit of Sevilla, with a 3-1 in the 77th minute that practically sealed the deal. In Almería the Three Wise Men leave this afternoon, but the Almería members and fans had their early Three Kings gift yesterday. That’s why they were happy: in the 88th minute, they waved, celebrating the enormous generosity of the Three Wise Men of Nervión. In 94, Luis Suárez, with a penalty, achieved the hat trick, but they could even finish with a hand, since in 91 a blow from Almería met the post. Almería is the first classified in the Second Division; It is therefore the most worthy Second Division team with which one can fall in the Copa del Rey. But in the absence of Europe, and with our mediocre role in LaLiga, we had placed many hopes in the KO tournament. Yesterday they all dissipated, but something that we already know was also confirmed: Sevilla is a very fragile team, which not only has a problem with a lack of efficiency, but is also capable of falling like a tower of cards in 45 minutes. After a fairly decent first half, Almería scored four goals against us in the second half, in the face of the absolute inability and competitive starvation of García Pimienta’s team. Last night, many children from Almería went to bed extremely happy: the Three Wise Men are going to bring them gifts two days in a row. The Sevilla children will have to console themselves with the memory of Navas’ unforgettable farewell. Because, in the remainder of the season, there are not going to be many more opportunities for enthusiasm. Bad start for Year I DN This can only be fixed by qualifying for Europe. Quite a difficult undertaking, taking into account what Sevilla can offer.
