Sevilla 0-1 Real Madrid result, stats and report

Atletico Madrid dismantled Sevilla 3-1 at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan, with Álex Baena scoring twice and Ademola Lookman adding a third to hand the hosts a chastening evening in La Liga.

Real Madrid made it five La Liga wins from five in their recent completed sample with a ruthless 4-0 dismantling of Málaga, who offered next to nothing in attack and were carved open from the first whistle.

Sevilla claimed all three points at Espanyol on Sunday evening, winning 1-0 in a tight, fractious La Liga encounter that was defined by Espanyol's red card and their inability to do anything meaningful with the ball going forward.

Real Madrid dominated every measurable aspect of this game and still could not win it. Troy Parrott's late goal for Betis and Carlos Espí's even later equaliser summed up a night of missed basics and wasted opportunity.

Jose Mourinho praised Trent Alexander-Arnold's midfield display in Real Madrid's win over Inter Milan, then insisted 'he is not a midfielder', continuing a pattern set by Southgate and Klopp of trialling the role without ever committing to it.

Real Madrid defender Raul Asencio has been acquitted of distributing a sexually explicit video involving a minor, but three former academy team-mates were convicted of child pornography offences in the same case. A separate club disciplinary process over a drink-driving conviction, and Jose Mourinho's evident frustration, mean the matter is far from closed for Asencio at Real Madrid.

Fulham have agreed a reported €25m deal for Eintracht Frankfurt's Hugo Larsson and a separate move for Real Madrid graduate Manuel Angel, hijacking Crystal Palace's pursuit of the Swedish midfielder just a day after reports had the Eagles closing in.
