Sevilla stages stunning late collapse of Barcelona

Sevilla's Late Fury: A Stunning Collapse of Barcelona's Title Hopes

Must Watch Futmetrix Score: 90/100. When VAR cancelled a penalty in the 11th minute, no one predicted Sevilla would script their own epic in the dying seconds, leaving Barcelona—second in the table—shattered 4-1.

From Controversy to Glory: Intensity Unleashed

Chaos arrived early. The 11th-minute VAR overturn stung, but Sevilla refused to fold. Two minutes later, A. Sanchez converted from the spot to break the deadlock. Isaac Romero doubled the lead in the 36th, with R. Vargas threading the creative pass from midfield. Just when control seemed assured, Barcelona struck back: M. Rashford capitalized on Pedri's assist in the 45th to inject hope into the Blaugrana comeback bid.

The 90th-Minute Explosion: When Everything Breaks

But Sevilla had one final act. At the 90-minute mark, perfection collided with chaos. Defender José Ángel Carmona—who'd delivered a 8.3-rated defensive masterclass—sealed it with an improbable goal, set up by L. Agoume. Seconds later, substitute C. Ejuke gifted a golden ball to fellow sub A. Adams, who hammered home the 4-1 finale. Thirty combined shots, 13 on target, seven saves from Odysseas Vlachodimos keeping Sevilla alive. The balance shattered violently in stoppage time.

The Stakes Shift: Title Race Redrawn

Barcelona's unbeaten run (LWWWW) ends with their first loss. Sevilla, sixth on 13 points, breathes fresh air in the European chase. With a third of the season played, this result reshuffles everything in La Liga's stakes.
