Christmas
Lopetegui, coach of the Sevilla, lives his worst run of results since his arrival at Sánchez Pizjuán after adding his third defeat in the same week at Martínez Valero against Elche. The Gipuzkoan coach, after the two defeats against Barcelona in the League and in the Cup, had not lost three games in a row either last season or this season, a dynamic that the Andalusians wish to break this Tuesday with the visit to Borussia Dortmund in the return of the knockout stages of the Champions League in which they must overcome a 2-3 against.
Sevilla went four games without winning at the beginning of this season, two draws and two defeats, although the even ones can be classified as meritorious as they occurred precisely against Barcelona at the Camp Nou (1-1) and against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge ( 0-0) on the first day of the Champions League group stage. Then there would be two defeats in the League that did not enter the script, against Granada (1-0) and Eibar (0-1) in Los Cármenes and in Nervión.
Last season he was five games without winning
Lopetegui’s other bad run at Sevilla was last season, 19-20, when he went five games without winning, two defeats and three draws that began with the stick in the Copa del Rey against Mirandés (3-1) and after which came a draw against Alavés at home (1-1), the defeat in Vigo (2-1) and the draw against Espanyol (2-2), before new tables on their visit to Romanian Cluj (1- 1) in the first leg of the round of 32 of the Europa League, a duel in which Sevilla was very close to being eliminated from the tournament that they would finally win, because in the discount a failure of Bono ended in a goal that he only avoided the VAR pointing to the Romanian forward’s hands. In those days, the public of Sánchez Pizjuán was walking nails with Lopetegui and clearly pointed out the coach, as well as the Moroccan goalkeeper, who would later be the hero in the final phase of the competition in the German city of Cologne.
