Rayo Vallecano defeated Seville 1-0 on Saturday at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. Seville arrived at the match looking to pick up more points after losing their last match 3-1 to R Madrid. Rayo were able to continue their winning streak after a 5-1 win against Cádiz in their last match. Seville and Rayo currently occupy 17th and 8th spots in the league, with 10 points and 18 points respectively after 12 matches.

After an uneventful first half, Rayo continued to pile on the pressure in the second period and were rewarded, when Alvaro Garcia found the net, 61 minutes in. When the final whistle blew, the result was 1-0 to Rayo.

Substitutions for Seville included Papu Gomez, Rafa Mir, Suso, Marcos Acuna and Jesus Navas for Adnan Januzaj, Ivan Rakitic, Oliver Torres, Alex Telles and Gonzalo Montiel, respectively. Rayo brought on Pathe Ciss, Salvi Sanchez, Pep Chavarria, Pablo Munoz and Esteban Saveljich, to replace Unai Lopez, Isi Palazon, Sergio Camello, Santi Comesana and Alvaro Garcia.

There were bookings for Isco, Suso, Marko Dmitrovic, Bono, Jesus Navas and Marcao from Seville. For Rayo, Alejandro Catena saw yellow.

Seville will next play Real Betis away, with Rayo facing R Madrid at home.
