Real Madrid left the Jesús Navas stadium with a 2-0 win over Sevilla in Liga F, but the night ended with concern as Yasmim was taken off on a stretcher after hurting her right knee. Alba Redondo broke the deadlock in the 52nd minute and Feller sealed it in the 95th, giving Madrid a result that kept them second in the classification.
The match had looked like a test of patience for long stretches. Feller had already hit the woodwork before halftime, and Sevilla’s best chance came in the 58th minute through Esther Martín, before Madrid finally found the first goal through Redondo’s finish. Eva Navarro was one of Madrid’s key contributors throughout, helping sustain the pressure as the visitors searched for a way through.
Quesada made four changes to Real Madrid’s starting eleven and did so without Keukelaar, Athenea, Toletti, Bruun or Teresa in the lineup. On the other side, Losada made two changes for Sevilla, bringing Rosa Márquez and Raquel Morcillo back into the side. Sevilla had already secured safety and had spent several weeks in no-man’s land, while the loss extended a run of four matches in a row without a win.
The late setback for Yasmim undercut an otherwise useful evening for Madrid. She was injured six minutes after coming on and had to leave the ground on a stretcher, a reminder that the closing stages carried more than table pressure. Real Madrid needed the points to keep pace in the battle for second place, and after a recent slip against DUX Logroño, this was the kind of response they could not afford to waste. Diario AS summed up the mood bluntly: “Tres puntos y otra futbolista a la enfermería.”
