Akor Adams’ Penalty Secures 2-1 Win for Sevilla Over Rotated Atlético Madrid

Akor Adams opened the scoring with a calm penalty to give Sevilla an early lead against a heavily rotated Atlético Madrid side. Diego Simeone rested key stars including Ademola Lookman, Julián Álvarez and Antoine Griezmann ahead of their Champions League tie. Sevilla took full advantage when Nemanja Gudelj headed home late in the first half to make it 2-1. Atlético introduced youth players like Javier Boñar, who netted a fine header to level before halftime. But the visitors lacked firepower after the break and Sevilla held firm to claim three vital points. The win lifts Sevilla to 15th, three points clear of the drop zone. Atlético remain fourth and now turn their focus to next week’s Champions League quarter-final clash.
