The opening moments were brutal for Sevilla, finding themselves trailing from the second minute after Pozo’s run on the right culminated in Akieme converting from the spot with clinical precision.
Almería controlled the pace early, pressing high while Sevilla struggled to complete the final pass. The match also saw injuries to Akieme, El Bilal and Bono, but Sampaoli’s side steadied themselves and earned an equalizer via a penalty converted by Ocampos after Pozo had been fouled on Telles, following two earlier protests that had been denied.

The dressing room break seemed to suit Almería, who returned with renewed intensity and pushed Sevilla back, reducing the once comfortable midfield presence. Luis Suárez produced a remarkable run that beat Dmitrovic one-on-one and then forced Badé into an own-chance situation, restoring the lead to 1-2. Nervión responded by refreshing the attack with Lamela, Bryan Gil and Óliver Torres, and the combination of the first two laid the groundwork for the decisive moment.
Lamela received a pass from Barbate on the left, cut inside and fed a cross that found Lamela’s header in the center of the box. The ball found the back of the net, and with that, Sevilla, though short on stamina, withstood the late pressure and clung to the three points that granted them a lifeline while undermining a direct rival in the battle to stay up.
