Sevilla travel to Estadi Ciutat De Valencia to face Levante tonight, in what is one of the biggest games in the entire relegation battle. Both sides need to win. A Sevilla win probably sends Levante down, but a Levante win puts Sevilla in serious danger.
Rayo Vallecano became the 17th Spanish team to ever reach a European semi-final. That's despite huge problems with the ownership and disasters off the pitch. At times, there's no running water or electricity in the stadium. Fans cannot buy tickets online. A match with Real Oviedo was postponed because the pitch was unusable. The job Inigo Perez has done is remarkable, and I will be delving into the tactics behind his success soon.
