Jonny Otto had to leave the injured field in the 23rd minute and Protesoni took his place. The Alavés dominated in the first few minutes, but Seville was not uncomfortable either. The Babazorros had their first clear occasion in the 9th minute, when the side Yusi hit the ball hard at the exit of a corner.
The Alaveses have dominated the possession, but both teams have had two clear occasions, that of Sevilla a powerful shot from Sawe in the 40th minute that Raúl Fernández has had to clear to corner.
After the break, Aleña had the first chance of the second half, but a shot from outside the area cleared the Sevillain goalkeeper to corner, where Protesoni had the 1-0, but his auction near the small area came out in half and Vlachodimos again stopped the Alavés attempt.
In the 68 minute, Coudet's team had another great opportunity, with a good play in which Carlos Vicente shot across from the side of the area and the sevillist goalkeeper diverted his shot and the rechace remained at the feet of Lucas Boye, but the Argentinian failed, then the Sevillain striker Isaac Romero shot from within the area and Raúl Fernández diverted to corner.
In the 77 minute, Lucas Boye received a pass in the area and, after dodging it, a Sevillain defense made a clear penalty. Carlos Vicente did not forgive from 11 meters and marked for the babazorros. The team led by Coudet already deserved the prize.
Soon after, Boye, injured, had to be replaced within 20 minutes. Guridi took his place. Seville had a tie in the discount, but luckily for the Alavés the Heliopolis team failed to hit the auction, Alexis failed to hit the ball.
