Huevo Acuña tough against Sevilla leaders: “Many lies have been told” and “I didn’t have the support of the club”

This Sunday, Sevilla have defeated Getafe enough and added three more than important points in the fight for permanence. Yes, incredible as it may seem, the Argentine team is at the bottom of the Spanish league and needs to add to get out of the red zone. And one of the saviors was Marcos Acuña.

This Sunday’s triumph was suffered, but finally victory. The team led by Jorge Sampaoli won 2-1 and the scorer of the first goal of the match was Marcos Acuña, with a header. Yup, the left side of the Argentina national team surprised by perfectly connecting a millimeter center of Ivan Rakitic and could shout goals.

This was the first goal for Huevo after becoming world champions, who have played in every game for Sevilla since competition at club level resumed.. However, some doubt his commitment to the team and this was reflected in a post match interview with the club’s official channel.

In recent months there has been a lot of talk about Acuña’s physical problems. “At one point your commitment to Sevilla was questioned. What do you have to say about it?“, launched the journalist.

“I wanted to clarify this. A lot of lies have been told about my injuries and I don’t think I had the support of the club. This saddened me a bit because I’m a Sevilla player and the club should have come out to clarify the injury I had. I’ve always been busy with the club“, replied the Egg, bluntly and with brutal honesty.

Other statements by Acuña

The left-back also spoke about the game he faced: “In the first half we had to start with more of an advantage. They had to go out to play, we fell behind and things got a bit complicated. We managed to make another one, in the end they made it but we resisted and we got a good result”.

Sevilla started 2023 with two victories, one in the Copa del Rey and another in the Spanish league. However, they still have a long way to go: “We have to keep improving. We’ve seen things that we’ve been working on, but we have to move forward with our idea and bring it forward all together.”
