First Half Ends Goalless
The first half was competitive without producing a goal. Sevilla had some of the better early moments, with Miguel Sierra testing Leo Román around the quarter-hour mark. Lucien Agoumé also came close with a low effort later in the half.
Deportivo had their own spells of pressure but could not turn their possession into a clear chance in front of goal. Bil Nsongo was involved in one of the better home attacks before the break, but Sevilla's defence dealt with the danger.
Neither side found the breakthrough, and the teams went into half-time at 0-0.
Miguel Sierra Gives Sevilla the Lead
The game finally opened up seven minutes after the restart.
Lucas Stassin created the opening, driving towards the area before testing Leo Román. The Deportivo goalkeeper made the save, but the rebound fell into Miguel Sierra's path.
Sierra reacted quickly and finished from inside the box to put Sevilla 1-0 ahead in the 52nd minute.
It was the moment the visitors had been waiting for, but Deportivo still had plenty of time to respond.
Angeliño Sent Off After VAR Review
The match took another major turn only a few minutes later.
In the 58th minute, Angeliño was shown a red card following a VAR review after his challenge on Sierra. The decision left Deportivo with 10 players and changed the task facing the home side.
Instead of simply chasing an equalizer, Deportivo now had to do it while a man down.
The hosts did not stop trying. Antonio Hidalgo made attacking changes, including bringing on Adama Traoré at half-time and later introducing Mario Soriano, Jonathan Asp Jensen and Giacomo Quagliata.
Sevilla Hold On at Riazor
Playing against 10 men, Deportivo still found moments where they threatened Sevilla's goal.
Asp Jensen tested Odysseas after a promising move involving Adama, while another Deportivo attack ended with the shot taking a deflection into the Sevilla goalkeeper's hands.
Sevilla also had a chance to put the game beyond doubt when Stassin found himself through on goal, but Leo Román kept Deportivo in the contest with a strong save.
As the minutes passed, Sevilla focused on keeping control of the game rather than taking unnecessary risks. Deportivo pushed forward whenever they could, but the equalizer never arrived.
With José María Giménez replaced by Zakaria Eddahchouri in the 83rd minute, Deportivo committed more players forward in the closing stages. Sevilla managed the pressure and saw out the six minutes of added time.
