  1. Aaron

    Early confusion in the Valencia box as a loose ball following a corner could have bounced our way. 2′

  2. Aaron

    HUUUUYYY Navas! Great ball over the top from Fazio. His near angle shot is pushed away. We’re getting close… 5′

  3. Aaron

    HUUUUUYYY!YY!!!! TROCHO! loops a shot over the defense and almost into the far 90, but the Diego Alves pushes it over. 8′

  4. Aaron

    HUUUUUUU!Y!Y!YY!Y!!!!!!!

    Negredoooooo! Nearly scores after he rounds his mark. His cross is saved high and from 5 yards. 15′

  5. Aaron

    HUUUUUUYLY SHIIIT!!!!!

    A three-on-0 ends in Navas blasting the ball into the keeper’s face. He is down on the ground. 16′

  6. Aaron

    It’s just more of the same at this point: good chances, no goals. They still look hungry.

  7. Rene

    wow! great work from negredo… deflected off the post.

  8. Aaron

    HUUUUUUYYYYYY!!! NEGREDOOOO!! More amazing work, beating four men on the right and sending in a ball that bounced off a leg and then off the near post and out. 26′

  9. Rene

    had the ball at the edge of the box and finesse/muslced his wan into a shot that nearly went in

  10. Rene

    medel makes a bone headed pass to valencia, and then within 15 seconds put pressure on the valencia midfield leading them to kicking the ball out of bounds. awesome.

  11. Aaron

    The Sevilla opening storm is slowing giving way to a brutish resistance from Valencia. Eventually we will have to stop saying we deserve goals until we actually score them.

  12. Aaron

    Caceres snuffs out what would have been a sure goal for Valencia. Then, after being pressed, a turnover results in a crazy monkey-save from VARAS. 36′

  13. Aaron

    VARAS AGAIN!!!!!!!! ONE HAND DIVE!!

  14. Aaron

    High pressing from Sevilla is leading to turnovers, just not the free-on-goal type. 40′

  15. Aaron

    Medel is in beast form. Losing balls and winning them right back. Tracking everyone and busting counters with ease.

  16. Rene

    crap! missed it!

    i dont really understand our strategy going forward. its not really playing wide, but not really pushing through the center either. sometimes just long balls over the top… any insight on what our strategy is?

  17. Aaron

    By that I mean he’s about to earn a yellow and lose his edge.

  18. Aaron

    Reyes has been less than great. Navas and Negredo nearly link up in front of goal. 43′

  19. Rene

    navas gets ball deep on the wing but his ball is too close to the keeper.

  20. Aaron

    Diego Alves is all over every cross from Navas. Our goal should come from elsewhere.

  21. Aaron

    HT. Sheesh. Sevilla nearly end another half by getting scored on.

  22. Rene

    free header for valencia that is thankfully put wide….

    yeah, we’re pressing high, and our most dangerous moments have been from these turnovers, but its not very confidence inspiring that we can actually create anything.

    halftime 0-0

    need one goal… at very minimally least.

  23. Aaron

    Navarro is getting dangerously close to a second yellow. 50′

  24. Rene

    ugh. horrific waste of possession in a dangerous position from trochowski with a long off-mark shot.

  25. Rene

    caceres has looked really good from what ive seen. we better be getting serious cash for him if he leaves.

  26. Aaron

    We’re not seeing much of the ball. Valencia are touching it around to their peripheral players and we’re chasing. 56′

  27. Aaron

    Reyes with more turnovers than an Arby’s today.

  28. Aaron

    Valencia are taking their sweet time on every throw in and free kick. Who can blame them. Caceres gets a yellow for disputing a corner call. 60′

  29. Aaron

    Rakitic soon to come on. For Reyes?

  30. Rene

    we dont look dangerous. 30 minutes to get a goal.

  31. Aaron

    Even deep in attack, Valencia are content to drop the ball all the way to Diego Alves. 61′

  32. Rene

    dangerous chance in the box or us, but is blocked… didnt see who it was…

    rakitic for trocho. corner.

  33. Aaron

    Huuuuy! Manu left it for Negredo to shoot from 10 yards. Deflected and out for corner. Rakitic on for Trocho. 62′

  34. Rene

    negredo shoots a shot that would have been high on a goal 25 ft tall.

    is that campana warming up?

  35. Aaron

    Perotti preparing to come on.

  36. Rene

    starting to press a bit… come on guys.

  37. Rene

    oh! perotti! wow. embarassing. on for manu.

  38. Aaron

    Perotti on for Manu. 64′

  39. Aaron

    Our front line is stacked. Time to make some noise.

  40. Rene

    what the fuck was that?

    well. its over. we’re not scoring three goals to turn this around. beautiful pass to soldado that was onside… he goes in alone on varas with fazio too slow to catch up, and slides it home easily.

    CdR over.

  41. Aaron

    A long through ball splits both stationary CBs and Soldado makes Varas look foolish. 67′

  42. Aaron

    Again. More chances for us. No definición. Fewer chances for them: definición.

    This is our Sevilla.

  43. Rene

    goal rakitic off a rebound of a caceres shot…

    please prove me wrong guys. 20 minutes. 2 goals. do it.

  44. Aaron

    Why do we score NOW?

  45. Aaron

    Kanouté is coming on. For Navarro. 71′

  46. Rene

    big fredi for navarro… 65′

  47. Aaron

    HUUUUUUUUYYYYYYYYYY PEROTTI deflected for a corner. 74′

  48. Aaron

    Linesman judges Navas to be offside when he was several feet onside. Not our day. 79′

  49. Rene

    rakitic couldve had a second. wouldve made the final minutes more intesresting. instead we’re flopping alot, apparently intent on making them lose a player for the next round.

    navas dives too much these days.

  50. Rene

    dangerous free kick by rakitic and an own goal…

    2 minutes left… lets do it!

  51. Rene

    shit. kanoute went about 1 foot wide on what would’ve put us through… frustrating.

  52. wingback

    At least we looked as though we are finding our scoring boots.
    Caceres wasn’t bad, Navarro needs to be benched for Luna!

  53. Aaron

    We needed our scoring boots in the first 20 minutes when we had golden chances. Too little, too late.

  54. Anthony

    Reyes was a disappointment tonight. He looked slow (a little out of shape) and turned the ball over very easily.
