Sporting outcast shines in La Liga and fires Sevilla to victory (1-0) | OneFootball

Giorgi Kochorashvili once again caught the eye in Spain. The former Sporting midfielder provided the assist for Juan Iglesias’ goal that secured another win for Sevilla (1-0), in a match in which Valencia once again confirmed their dreadful start to the season.

The decisive moment came in the 81st minute, when Kochorashvili set up Juan Iglesias for a precise header. The former Sporting player — who had come on in the 71st minute — was therefore directly involved in the goal that allowed the team coached by Luis García to claim their third win in the competition.

With this result, Sevilla moved provisionally up to third place in the standings, with 10 points, the same as second-placed Alavés and just two behind leaders Barcelona. Real Madrid and Betis, both on nine, still have matches to play this round.

In this way, Kochorashvili continues to gain ground after leaving Sporting. The Georgia international is looking to establish himself in La Liga and added another standout moment by contributing directly to an important result for the Andalusian side.

On the other hand, Valencia are going through a very difficult start to the season. The team have just one point, are still without a win, and sit bottom of Spain’s top flight, having already conceded 10 goals and scored only one.
