Euskaraz irakurri: Alavesek Ligako bolada txarra ahaztu du Meridaren aurka irabazita Kopan (0-1)
The Deportivo Alaves has managed to pass to the round of 32 of the Copa del Rey after defeat Merida with a goal of Save Seville in the first part (0-1).
The beginning of the game has been the premonition of what the match was going to be. The people from Vitoria were the ones who had the ball and controlled the game, while the locals took advantage of their losses to try to create danger on the counters.
In minute 6 Luis Rioja crossed low from the left wing and Sylla was about to hit the ball, but the ball ended up in the hands of the Mérida goalkeeper.
The prize for Alavés’ superiority came in the 25th minute, with a goal from Salva Sevilla, after a great maneuver by Rober, who caracoleted inside the area and fired a shot at the long post. The rival goalkeeper cleared, but could not do anything before the rebound, which Salva Sevilla sent into the net.
Mérida tried to react and had some outstanding plays, but it was the ‘Glorious’ who had the clearest opportunity to increase the score before going to rest.
The game got stuck in the early stages of the second half, and possession did not last long for Alavés.
The changes made did not change the thread of the match much, which continued to be dominated by Álava.
Guridi was able to close the game after the pass of death set up by Rioja, after a great play on the left wing with Moya, but the shot went just high.
In the end, victory for Alavés 0-1 and they will meet their rival in the round of 32 this Friday.
