Ander Barrenetxea, Sevilla winger, requested the substitution at the 55th minute of the match against Real Sociedad. The Donostiarra, starting as expected, was forced to leave the pitch after failing to beat Bartra in a one-on-one during a Realistic counter-attack following a steal by Yangel Herrera. In the press conference, coach Matarazzo confirmed that Barrenetxea was tired and experiencing some discomfort, without specifying the exact nature. The doctor is examining the player and an update is expected in the next press conference. Barrenetxea performed the classic substitution gesture, keeping the ball on the field for three more minutes before Oyarzabal and Marchal entered for Kubo and him. The winger had completed pre-season without apparent problems, featuring in seven matches, five of them as a starter, although he had shown signs of fatigue in some games. His condition will be evaluated for the upcoming match against Real Madrid on Wednesday at the Bernabéu.
