Sevilla Secures Late Draw Against Espanyol in Barcelona
Following a scoreless first half, the match escalated quickly after the break when Sevilla defender Arouna Sangante received a red card in the 56th minute for denying a clear goalscoring opportunity, as reported by the Corriere dello Sport.
Espanyol initially appeared to capitalize on the man advantage when El Hilali found the net six minutes after the sending-off, but the effort was overturned by a VAR offside review. Espanyol was subsequently punished on a counter-attack in the 85th minute. Substitute Lucas Stassin broke the deadlock for Sevilla with a precise right-footed shot from the center of the penalty area. However, Espanyol applied heavy late pressure, resulting in Marcos Fernandez heading home an equalizer in the 98th minute.
Alavés Crushes Osasuna as Martín Boyé Scores Hat Trick
Alavés secured its third victory in four matches to start the campaign, routing Osasuna 5-2 at home on September 6, 2026. According to the Corriere dello Sport, the hosts established a two-goal cushion by halftime thanks to strikes from former Torino forward Lucas Boyé and teammate Díaz.
Ante Budimir narrowed the deficit for Osasuna early in the second half, but Boyé restored the two-goal margin for Alavés shortly after. Budimir converted a penalty in the 64th minute to bring Osasuna within striking distance again, yet Boyé answered four minutes later to complete his scoring performance. Ibañez added a late goal to seal the 5-2 scoreline, handing Osasuna its first defeat of the season.
