Beaten Arsenal lift Emirates Cup despite Sevilla finishing with 100% record


The first thing to say after this is that Sevilla will surely be on to Fifa about a change to the format of the Emirates Cup. The club that finished fourth in last season’s La Liga beat Arsenal 2-1 to finish with a 100% record in the pre-season tournament, yet they did not lift the trophy. In the end, Arsène Wenger’s team finished level on points and goal difference with Sevilla but they edged above them on goals scored. Sevilla went ahead shortly after the second-half restart and the goal was all about the sharpness of Joaquin Correa and his understanding with Ben Yedder. Correa stepped over Michael Krohn-Dehli’s pass inside and sprinted into the area, where he was found by Ben Yedder.
