Las Palmas resistance

Roque's goal came after half an hour. During the remaining hour, Las Palmas withstood the Sevilla attacks that did not found reward in front of goal.

Sevilla bottom club

Two draws and three defeats leave Unai Emery´s side as the bottom team of Liga BBVA.

Sergio Araujo´s factor

The Argentinian was present in the two goals of his team. A perfect pass between lines in the first and perfect cross to Alcaraz header in the second to contribute to a victory that puts the Canary team in the middle of the table.

Goooooool!!! GOOOOOOOOOL!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOL de ALCARAAAAAAZ!! 76' #LPAvSFC (2-0) ¡¡¡#vamosUD!!!
