Sevilla FC claimed a hard-fought 2–1 win over Club Atlético de Madrid in the Primera Division on 11 April 2026, with all three goals arriving before half-time on Matchday 31.
The hosts struck first on 10 minutes when Akor Adams converted from the penalty spot to give Sevilla an early advantage. The forward kept his composure to make it 1–0 and set the tone for an intense opening spell.
Atlético responded in the 35th minute. Javier Boñar levelled the score at 1–1 with a regular-play finish, capitalising on good work from Julio Díaz, who provided the assist. The equaliser briefly shifted momentum towards the visitors as they pushed to turn the game around before the interval.
Sevilla, however, restored their lead in first-half stoppage time. In the 45th minute plus two, Nemanja Gudelj struck what proved to be the winner, finishing after an assist from Ruben Vargas to make it 2–1. Atlético were unable to find a way back in the second half despite their efforts.
The match grew increasingly tense after the break, reflected in a flurry of yellow cards. Sevilla’s Manuel Bueno, Juanlu, Gudelj and Peque were all booked, while Atlético saw cautions for Julio Díaz, Álex Baena, Antoine Griezmann and Javi Morcillo.
Both coaches turned to their benches in search of control. Sevilla introduced Djibril Sow, Peque, Alexis Sánchez, Batista Mendy and Gabriel Suazo, while Atlético brought on Ademola Lookman, Javi Morcillo and Alejandro Monserrate. Despite the changes, the scoreline remained unchanged.
