    Time:90'
    • Sevilla
    • Valencia
    • - The teams stay fourth and fifth - Valencia three goals ahead on goal difference.
    • 90+2' Valencia cannot score from their last attack and the game ends in a draw.
    • 90+1' Sevilla waste a late chance!! Kanoute crossed to put the visiting keeper under pressure with Fabiano jumping... when Renan dropped it Navas slammed a shot at goal from eight yards which was blocked on the line. Maresca then shot wide from 12 yards.
    • 88' Edu flicks the ball over a rival's head and looks for a through-ball on the volley, but it is headed away. Valencia will be good value for this point, should it finish all square.
    • 85' Villa with a lucky break in the box and MAY SCORE... he is challenged from behind by Sebastien Squillaci and looks for the penalty, but the ref says no! There was contact with him as he lunged for it...
    • 83' Sevilla change: Romaric replaced by Renato.
    • 80' Baraja booked for a challenge on Koffi Romaric.
    • 78' Valencia change: Maduro on for Moretti. There's little else happening.
    • 75' Valencia change: Fernandes replaced by Edu.
    • 73' Sevilla change: Adriano off, Diego Capel on.
    • 71' Mata sees a shot saved by Palop, good stop by the keeper. The attacking midfielder was on the right side of the box when he struck it.
    • 70' The general disquiet is spreading and will surely result in a red card at some point.
    • 67' Enzo Maresca, who came on for Duscher at half-time, goes down under a light challenge from the arm of Manuel Fernandes. The ref pulls out a yellow card for the former Everton player.
    • 63' More and more players going down, breaking the game into snippets that lack class. The exception is a bent shot from Adriano that flies over the far top corner. The Sevilla fans are waving white hankies periodically - at the ref.
    • 60' Navas clips Moretti on the touchline, which is a shame as he would have been free on the right and able to run straight for goal.
    • 59' Yellow card for the striker for his protests. It was a clever ball by the winger.
    • 58' Fabiano runs through unmolested as Navas plays him in... the offside flag goes up. He was a yard off.
    • 57' Kanoute rises to head a Navas cross at goal... just wide of the post. Better from the home team.
    • 55' Marchena booked for a foul on Kanoute.
    • 55' Still no way through for Sevilla. The fans are in good voice, but they are waiting for their players to give them something to celebrate...
    • 52' The winger is back in play after a spell on the sideline spent treating the problem.
    • 49' Joaquin goes to ground complaining of an arm from Fernando Navarro... there is blood to back up his claim!!
    • 46' The second half underway.
    • 45' The half-time whistle sounds. Not a great half, but the tension will build in the second half... plenty to come.
    • 43' Kanoute now fighting for the ball more in attack. This game needs a goal, though...
    • 40' Fabiano earns space along the edge of the area and shoots... it takes a deflection and Renan - who has already dived - shoots up an arm to palm over!!
    • 38' Kanoute stands the ball up from the edge of the box and launches into an overhead kick... palmed away by Renan. Great effort!!
    • 37' Luis Fabiano, who is yet to get involved in this match like his strike partner Fredi Kanoute, wins a corner for Sevilla... Valencia deal with it.
    • 32' The match is unusually quiet, with the home fans becoming irate as their team look slightly in the shadow of the visitors so far. It is directed at the ref though, not the players - they tend to get behind them down here.
    • 28' Navas goes down as he competes alongside Duscher, but referee Teixeira Vitienes does not give a foul. The skinny wide man was looking for it.
    • 26' Soon after Mata has another chance, his shot saved by Andres Palop in the home goal.
    • 25' Sevilla striker Luis Fabiano shoots at goal, but with little success.
    • 23' Valencia combine well again on the counter. There is a danger to Sevilla here tonight.
    • 20' Juan Mata receives the ball on the edge of the box, turns past his man and fires... JUST WIDE OF THE NEAR POST!! That looked set to nestle in the corner!! Scare for Sevilla.
    • 16' Duscher turns and volleys from 35 yards, way over the bar.
    • 12' The match calms down a bit as Sevilla, playing as usual in white shorts and shirts with black socks, pass the ball about. Valencia in black and orange.
    • 8' Adriano does well to tee up Aldo Duscher on the edge of the box... his side-footed shot is straight at visiting goalie Renan.
    • 7' Miguel crosses from the right for Valencia... David Villa volleys from the far corner of the box - blocked. He caught that well.
    • 5' Navas booked for sliding in on Valencia winger Joaquin as he countered over halfway. He is not happy with the decision.
    • 4' Jesus Navas causing all kinds of problems for Emiliano Moretti on the right wing, winning a corner for Sevilla...
    • 3' It is fourth against fifth, with the home side only behind Los Che on goal difference. They are five points behind leaders Barcelona.
    • 1' The match kicks off amid the usual cracking atmosphere in the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
