The defeat of Sevilla FC in Butarque it is much more than three points lost. The match perpetrated by García Pimienta’s team certified a deficiency that the team has been showing since the season started: the lack of goal. Not in vain, Sevilla is the only LaLiga EA Sports team that does not yet have goals from one of its forwards. Their top scorer is Dodi Lukebakio, the only player in the attack who proposes something different and seeks the goal in some way. The Belgian’s dependence this year is undeniable, since he has been covering the lack of smell of Iheanacho and Isaac Romero in these 13 games in the league competition.
Thus, with five goals, lukebakio He stands as Sevilla FC’s only hope. The rest of the goals, not counting those that went into the opponent’s own goal, were scored by players with very different profiles: Ejuke, Idumbo, Mateo Mejía, Juanlu and Jesús Navas. One of the bases of the creation in attack of the white and red ones was Chedira Ejuke. The Nigerian, along with the Belgian winger, were the light that guided the team up. However, the serious injury he suffered during the duel against Barcelona has left him sidelined for three months. The alternatives are not being as effective and the team urgently needs to reinforce the left lane and the forward line.
The statistics certify it. In addition to the issue that no forward has yet scored this season, including Peque, Sevilla continues to gain an alarming fact: he barely knocks on the door. During the duel against Real Sociedad, the white and red team did not shoot between the three sticks the entire time. What’s more, Sevilla has not scored a goal since their visit to Espanyol two weeks ago, since Lukebakio will score a double at the RCDE Stadium.
Concern for Isaac
Precisely, against Leganés, the Belgian was the only one who shot on goal. Iheanacho and Isaac started as headlinesthus responding to a request that the crowd has been making for a long time. The two points converged for more than 70 minutes and It was the Nigerian who was the best of the two. In fact, although he has not made his debut in LaLiga, the African forward does have two goals in his personal locker this season, which he scored in the Copa del Rey against Las Rozas. It is the Lebrija native who most worries Sevilla fans, who has not scored with the Sevillista jersey since last April, when he scored the winning goal against Mallorca in Nervión last year.
Hopes for the youth squad were high, reinforced thanks to the good tandem he had with En-Nesyri. The chemistry between both attackers was palpable and, although the Moroccan was the one who pushed the ball inwards the most, the Sevillian contributed greatly in each goal-scoring play. However, the sale of En-Nesyri to Febernaçhe last summer has left Isaac as the team’s only point forward, a role in which, at the moment, he is not found. In an interview for ABC de Sevilla, the striker assured that He was not obsessed with the fact that he had not yet scoredthe problem is that his lack of goals is beginning to exasperate many inside and outside the club. The team needs goals and a striker to finish dangerous plays and if they don’t have him inside, they will have to look for him outside.
The work of sports management is underway, the absolute priority on the agenda of Victor Orta is the attack. Sevilla needs like food for the winter market to arrive and reinforce a squad with multiple shortcomings. The doubt is in the economic or creative capacity of the club to incorporate an interesting piece capable of turning this situation around.
