Jerome Adams Akor has voiced his disappointment following Sevilla’s 2-0 home loss to city rivals Real Betis in their LaLiga clash on Sunday.
The defeat marked Sevilla’s fourth in their last five league outings, adding to the frustration around the Rojiblancos’ recent form.
Akor Frustrated With Defeat
Reflecting on the result, Akor said Sevilla had enough control of the match but were undone by their inability to finish key chances.
“We can’t lose like this. It’s not just a defeat, it’s a slap in the face at home,” Akor told the club’s official website.
“For much of the game we were in control, we had chances, but they took theirs and there are no excuses. We have to work hard and keep going.”
What’s Next for Sevilla
Akor stressed the need for the squad to quickly move on and refocus on upcoming fixtures.
“It’s tough for us and for all Sevilla fans. Now we have the Cup midweek and then Valencia. We have to look ahead. We’ll be down today and tomorrow, but we have to pick ourselves up,” he added.
The forward’s remarks underline the urgency within the camp as Sevilla look to bounce back from another painful setback.
