UEFA Champions League 2016/17: Sevilla 2-1 Leicester City, 5 Talking Points

Claudio Ranieri
Ranieri’s side fell to another defeat

#4 Correa atones for his howler with a fine finish

Joaquin Correa
Correa missed a penalty but struck a goal to double Sevilla’s advantage

The 22-year-old Sevilla midfielder wasted a brilliant chance in the first half when he poorly struck a penalty, but made up for his mistake with an equally fine finish in the second period that put the hosts 2-0 up.

Completely unmarked on the left flank, Steven Jovetic nudged the ball to Correa, who struck it high up in the net to double Sevilla’s lead, and also give himself some respite after the penalty howler.

It was his fifth goal of the season in all competitions, but also the most important one by far.
