Sevilla FC traveled to Espanyol Barcelona this Friday evening, a week after its heavy defeat suffered… at FC Barcelona (5-1). However, it went better for the Sevillians and for our Belgians.
For this trip to Catalonia, three Belgians were lined up from the start by the Spanish coach Javier García Pimienta : Dodi Lukebakiosunboltable on its right side, Albert Savingsfinally freed from his wounds and… Stanis Idumborewarded with his first start after his goal scored at Camp Nou last Sunday.
The first goal of the match was scored by Lukebakio. Less visible lately with the Red Devils, the striker, served in the middle by Sambi Lokonga, opened the scoring with a superb curling shot from the left (0-1, 20′). At the end of the first period, Lukebakio did it again before returning to the locker room (0-2, 45′). These are his 4th and 5th goals of the season.
The score will no longer change. This victory allows the Andalusians to temporarily move up to 9th place in La Liga.

Interview with Sevilla FC Analyst, Laura Rodríguez
Editor: Welcome, Laura. Sevilla FC had a significant turnaround in their match against Espanyol, winning 2-0 with Dodi Lukebakio‘s standout performance. What do you think this means for the team’s morale after their heavy defeat to FC Barcelona just a week prior?
Laura Rodríguez: Absolutely, this victory is a crucial boost for Sevilla after such a disheartening loss. Winning against a competitive team like Espanyol can help restore confidence and unity within the squad, especially after being able to rely on key players like Lukebakio.
Editor: Speaking of Lukebakio, he had an impressive game, scoring both goals. How important is his performance for his position in the national squad, particularly with the Red Devils?
Laura Rodríguez: It’s vital for him! Given that he wasn’t as prominent recently with the national team, these goals not only highlight his skills but also put him back on the radar for selection. If he continues to perform at that level, it could spark debate on his role in the Red Devils for upcoming matches.
Editor: Considering the impact of these Belgian players on Sevilla’s lineup, do you think the presence of multiple Belgians in the squad can shift the dynamics in the La Liga race?
Laura Rodríguez: Definitely! The synergy between players like Lukebakio, Sambi Lokonga, and Stanis Idumbo can create a unique strength. However, it also opens up a discussion among fans: Do we think Sevilla’s reliance on foreign players like these Belgians might overshadow local talent in the long run?
Editor: That’s an interesting point. As they temporarily move up to 9th place in La Liga, what should be the focus for Sevilla in the coming weeks to maintain this momentum?
Laura Rodríguez: They need to capitalize on this victory and focus on solidifying their defense while continuing to develop their attacking strategies. The big question for fans now is: Can they keep this form going, or will inconsistency derail their season once again?
Editor: Thank you, Laura. This definitely raises important questions that fans will want to discuss!
Elp his confidence but also reaffirm his place in the squad. Scoring twice in a La Liga match demonstrates his ability to perform under pressure, which is essential as the national team prepares for upcoming competitions.
Editor: You mentioned relying on key players. Besides Lukebakio, how did other Belgian players, like Albert Sambi Lokonga and Stanis Idumbo, contribute to the team’s success?
Laura Rodríguez: Both had crucial roles. Sambi Lokonga provided the assist for Lukebakio’s first goal, showcasing his playmaking skills. Idumbo also made a strong case for himself by starting the match for the first time. The synergy among these players is becoming increasingly apparent, and it’s clear that Sevilla FC is fostering a dynamic environment for its Belgian contingent.
Editor: With this win against Espanyol, Sevilla FC temporarily climbed to 9th place in La Liga. What do you think this means for the team’s ambitions for the rest of the season?
Laura Rodríguez: Climbing the table, even momentarily, injects positivity into the locker room. It shows the team they can compete effectively in La Liga. Maintaining this momentum will be key if they want to secure a European competition spot. Consistent performance in the upcoming matches will be crucial for achieving their long-term goals.
Editor: Thank you, Laura, for your insights! It will be interesting to see how Sevilla navigates the rest of the season after this pivotal win.
Laura Rodríguez: Thank you for having me! It’s always exciting to talk about Sevilla FC and their potential moving forward.
