Eibar pull off a 1-0 upset against Sevilla on their travels

Kike-Eibar

Sevilla crashed to a 1-0 defeat against Eibar in the Spanish League earlier today.

The home side will be thoroughly disappointed with their performance at home and the fans will be expecting a lot better from their players going forward.

Sevilla were complete favourites heading into the game and they should have picked up all three points.

The home side are expected to be the outsiders in the title challenge this year but if they fail to secure the three points against teams like Eibar, they will struggle to match up to the likes of Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Sevilla have the quality to beat most teams in the League and they will have to be more consistent in the upcoming matches.

Garcia scored the opening goal of the game on the 41st minute for Eibar and they defended impressively to contain the home side throughout the game.

Eibar will be very impressed with the performance today and it will be interesting to see if they can build on it and put together a winning run now.

They were massive underdogs heading into the game and tonight’s win will have given them an immense confidence boost.

The win leaves Eibar 11th in the table with just eight points from seven games and Sevilla are now 13th in the table with seven points. Sevilla have been very poor in the league so far and they will have to bounce back immediately if they want to finish in a respectable position this season.
