FC Sevilla continues to hold onto the coveted 4th place in La Liga, a position synonymous with securing a spot in the preliminary round of the Champions League. Their commanding performance this Sunday, where they defeated Espanyol Barcelona 4-1, should further solidify their standing in the league.
Cameroonian midfielder Stéphane Mbia set the tone by opening the scoring in the 18th minute, followed by another former French Ligue 1 player, Kevin Gameiro, who netted twice in the 44th and 84th minutes. Despite a consolation goal from Sergio Garcia for Espanyol, Sevilla sealed the victory with one final goal courtesy of Rakitic.
Currently positioned 5th in La Liga, Sevilla FC trails Athletic Bilbao by just 3 points with 6 matches remaining in the championship, keeping their Champions League aspirations alive.
