The match was marked by VAR intervention, which disallowed a penalty in favor of the Sevillian team in the last ten minutes of the game. This decision, which overturned the referee's initial call, sparked outrage from the visiting team and its supporters.
The key play occurred after a cross into the Levante box, where the ball struck a defender's hand. Although the referee initially awarded the penalty, a review in the VOR Room led to its annulment, denying Sevilla FC the chance to equalize.
Failing to score points at the Ciutat de Valencia further complicates the Nervionense team's situation, leaving them with only a one-point advantage over the relegation spots after Elche CF's victory over Atlético de Madrid last Wednesday.
The defeat was sealed by a brace from a former Sevilla Fútbol Club youth player, deciding the match with six rounds remaining in the season. The team's situation is critical, with a challenging schedule that includes matches against teams in European positions and visits to the Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán from rivals such as Real Sociedad and RCD Espanyol.
Tension within the club is palpable, with fans expressing their dissatisfaction with the management, at a time that could culminate in the team's relegation if the current dynamic is not reversed.
