In the second half, coach Pablo Machin brought on Ben Yedder and Franco Vasquez for some much-needed change. Sevilla created multiple chances and two clear-cut chances were ruled out due to offside. Ultimately, it was the stubborn defense of Getafe who protected their 2 goal lead throughout the entire 90 minutes as well as an additional 9 minutes extra added on.

The next opponents for Sevilla are Standard Liege of Belgium in the Europa League at home and they would look to start their European adventure with a win.
