Carrusel sábado a las 23:30 | Matías Almeyda, muy cerca de ser destituido en el Sevilla y las claves del Real Madrid-Atlético de LaLiga

·1 hr 11 min·5 clips

Matías Almeyda tells the Cadena SER press conference 'the responsible for this is me' and says his future as Sevilla coach 'is within the possibilities' to be ended.

1. Carrusel Deportivo broadcasts live late on Saturday night with correspondent Santi Ortega at the Pizjuán and panel including Fran, Julio Pulido, Santiago Ovalle, Aritz Gabilondo, Javier Raez, and Miguel Martín Talavera. 2. The main news is Sevilla's 0-2 home defeat to Valencia, a result that leaves them 15th in La Liga with 31 points — only three above the relegation zone with nine games left. 3. The La Liga relegation context is spelled out: Levante 26 points penultimate, Mallorca 28, Elche 29, Sevilla 31, Rayo Vallecano 32 in 14th — just six points separating last place from 14th. 4. Valencia's goals came from Ugo Duro and Ramazani after a Rioja assist; the team played a defensive, controlled second half and never allowed Sevilla to equalise. 5. Valencia captain José Luis Gaya suffered two head blows during the match; he was allowed to continue after the first, but the second left him with blurred vision and dizziness, and he was taken to a hospital near the Pizjuán for observation. 6. Gaya's situation is later updated: he was cleared by medical staff, confirmed to have a visible swelling on the left forehead, and returned with the Valencia squad to travel back to the city. 7. Commentators criticise the decision to allow Gaya back onto the field after the first blow, calling it an 'imprudence' and arguing that medical protocol should override the player's own determination to continue. 8. Matías Almeyda holds a press conference that reporters describe as unlike any they had seen from him: deflated tone, saying 'the responsible for this is me,' and acknowledging that a coaching change is 'within the possibilities.' 9. Reporters inside the ground had heard rumours of Almeyda suffering a blood pressure drop at the end of the match; when asked directly, he did not deny it, noting that 'the pressure can be raised and lowered, that is normal for a person who feels football this way.' 10. Santi Ortega reports that members of the Sevilla board were already approaching the president during the second half saying the situation 'could not continue like this,' and that a coaching change appears imminent. 11. The sanedrin panel agrees that the squad quality is the root problem, not the coaching alone — one analyst describes the squad as 'mediocre' and argues that Cor Adams, Oso, and the goalkeeper are the only three 'potable' players. 12. A key revelation: Bordalás expressed interest in managing Sevilla before Almeyda was appointed, but directors blocked negotiations because they considered him an 'uncomfortable coach' who does not follow presidential instructions. 13. Commentators agree that rejecting Bordalás — who later kept Valencia from relegation and took them to a Copa del Rey final — is the decision that explains Sevilla's current situation. 14. Marc Márquez wins the Brazil MotoGP sprint race at Interlagos after studying Fabio Quartararo's telemetry and waiting for a mistake rather than forcing a block pass, which he avoided after the Thailand penalty incident. 15. Márquez speaks live to the programme from Interlagos at midnight local time, describing how the race was delayed three times due to a hole in the track surface and how he tracked the gap to Quartararo across the final laps. 16. Deportivo de la Coruña beats Real Zaragoza 1-2 away, with a Moulatieri goal in added time — returning to direct promotion positions in Segunda División, cutting Racing Santander's lead from seven points to four. 17. The broadcast covers the Copa del Rey de Fútbol Sala semifinal: Barcelona beats Palma Futsal 7-1 in the second half to set up a final against Jaén Paraíso Interior in Granada. 18. Regarding the Real Madrid vs Atlético de Madrid derby scheduled for Sunday, commentators note the atmosphere feels muted — Atlético already have a Copa final and Champions League progression, so the league stakes for them are lower than usual. 19. Listeners who follow La Liga's relegation battle, Cadena SER's flagship sports radio, or Spanish multi-sport weekend coverage will find this episode substantive and current. 20. Listeners who prefer structured post-match single-sport analysis, or who do not understand Spanish, will find the multi-topic live format hard to follow.
