‘Derbi chico’ defeat ends Luci Martín’s tenure as Marco García takes Sevilla Atlético job | OneFootball

Sevilla have dismissed Luci Martín as Sevilla Atlético head coach today, with Marco García taking immediate charge.

On six March the B team visited Ciudad Deportiva Luis del Sol for a relegation fight. Valentino put them ahead after a home error, but Jalade’s early red card for conceding a penalty flipped the tie. Betis Deportivo used the extra man to lead by the interval, Pablo García hit a brace, and the visitors offered little threat after the break, which, according to Zona Mixta, proved the decisive trigger.

The result underlined a precarious league position. The club confirmed today that Martín has been relieved of his duties after a damaging run that leaves the side penultimate in Primera RFEF. Defensive frailty and an inability to react in key moments have forced decisive action.

García steps up from Cadete A, which he led with authority. He won the Juvenil Liga Nacional last season, and his promotion fits the club’s preference for elevating successful academy coaches.

The sporting department trusts his knowledge of the group to correct course. His immediate brief is to sharpen the attack and restore the team’s playing identity to stave off relegation.
