This game has taken a new turn in the second half as Sevilla scored two goals in this second half I didn't expect Sevilla to come back this way before they conceided another goal to make it 3:2 the game is at it final minutes .
Sevilla had the right strategy by turning things around in the second half, and in my opinion, Matias Almeyda as Sevilla coach has a good understanding of how to identify Bilbao weaknesses in the first half, which allowed him to apply the right strategy in the second half. Overall, Sevilla performed fairly well in the second half match, and from the replay I saw, Sevilla actually had many chances. Unfortunately, Bilbao secured a 1-goal win in the second half, which caused Sevilla players to lose confidence. Although they lost, I believe Sevilla has shown a good performance at the start of this season.
Yes, we saw a Sevilla that never gave up trying, even when they were trailing. It was quite different from last year. I think Sevilla will show promising performances this year. They fought very hard in this match and never gave up in the second half. Athletic Bilbao, on the other hand, performed beyond expectations, almost dropping points. They seem to be getting complacent easily. If they keep doing this, they'll face trouble.
It was an exciting game given that these two teams are known for their defensive approach and nobody would have been negatively impressed if this game ended in a no goals draw. In that sense I think it was a good game with the better end for Bilbao. Sevilla has to work on their timings, 8 offsides in one game is ridiculous!
