SEVILLA FC has confirmed that their manager told his players he was suffering from prostate cancer while the side was losing 3-0 to Liverpool.
Pundits were lost for words how Los Rojiblancos made their remarkable comeback after halftime, to draw the game 3-3.
However, the emotional admission from boss Eduardo Berizzo was surely behind the turn around.
“It was a crazy game,” said midfielder Ever Banega.
“We had to go back out with a positive attitude for the coach.
“He is the most important of us all and we are with him to the end,” he said.
The 48-year-old Argentine Berizzo has been in charge of Sevilla since May, 2017.
Sevilla FC sit second in their Champions League group after the Liverpool game with one game left to play.
