Matías Almeyda’s Humble Take on Sevilla’s Dominant Win Over Barcelona
Despite Sevilla’s impressive 4-1 triumph against Barcelona just before the league break, head coach Matías Almeyda remained modest, emphasizing that the victory was simply another step forward rather than a monumental achievement.
La Liga Resumes: Sevilla Aims to Extend Winning Streak
As La Liga action resumes, Sevilla is set to host Mallorca on Saturday, October 18, 2025. Riding the momentum of back-to-back wins, Almeyda’s squad is eager to secure a third consecutive victory and continue climbing the league table.
Reflecting on the Barcelona Match: A Win, Not a Milestone
Before the international break, Sevilla delivered a commanding performance against Barcelona, dismantling the Catalan giants 4-1. However, Almeyda downplayed the significance of this result during his routine press conference, describing it as “just a game” and underscoring the importance of maintaining composure.
“Every win brings joy, and the last one was special for many reasons, but it remains only a match. I’m among the few coaches who, after beating Barcelona, chose not to speak to anyone. It’s three points and nothing more. We must keep our focus and stay calm,” Almeyda stated.
Almeya’s Vision: Building a Distinct Identity and Sustained Success
Almeyda expressed his ambition for Sevilla to cultivate a unique playing style while steadily accumulating points to improve their league standing. He stressed the importance of positivity and resilience, regardless of the outcome.
“We want to establish our own identity and keep earning points to gradually rise in the standings. Hopefully, we’ll win every match and maintain a positive mindset. There’s no reason to fear defeat or victory; our goal is always to win. The upcoming game against Mallorca will be challenging, as every match is,” the former AEK Athens coach remarked.
