Sevilla and Leganés Share the Points in Crucial La Liga Relegation Clash

Sevilla and Leganés

Sevilla and Leganés played out a tense 2–2 draw on May 4, 2025, at the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium, in a result that does little to ease either side’s relegation fears. With just four matches left in the season, both clubs remain in danger, locked in a desperate battle to stay in La Liga.

⚽ Match Recap: Momentum Swings in Survival Showdown

Leganés struck first through Munir, who capitalized on early defensive disorganization to give the visitors a surprise lead. However, Sevilla responded well, with Kike Salas equalizing and Juanlu putting the hosts ahead before halftime.

  • Munir (Leganés) – Early breakthrough to put pressure on Sevilla
  • Kike Salas (Sevilla) – Timed header to level the score
  • Juanlu (Sevilla) – Slotted finish to make it 2–1 before the break
  • Javi Hernández (Leganés) – 63rd-minute equalizer to salvage a point

The second half saw chances for both sides, but neither could break the deadlock as nerves and missed opportunities dominated the final 30 minutes.

📉 Relegation Pressure Mounts

This draw keeps both clubs in dangerous territory:

  • Sevilla sit 15th, just above the drop zone with 34 points
  • Leganés remain 19th, with 30 points and needing at least two wins from their final four matches

With just a handful of fixtures remaining, each game becomes a must-win for clubs on the brink. The draw may feel like a missed opportunity for both sides.

“We needed all three points, not one,” a frustrated Sevilla manager admitted post-match. “But the fight isn’t over.”

📰 Final Thoughts

Sevilla and Leganés may have shared the spoils, but the pressure is only intensifying in the La Liga relegation race. Both teams showed flashes of quality but will need consistency and steel to survive the drop. The coming weeks could decide their future in Spain’s top flight.

Can Sevilla hang on to safety? Will Leganés pull off a great escape?
