On the second half Eraso managed to score after an assistance by Diego Rico allowing the pepineros to set the 2-0. After Sarabia saw the red card, Layun managed to score the only goal for Sevilla. Asier Garitano’s team managed to get 3 points at home and practically secured a spot on first division for next season.
