Payne assists Sevilla against Alavés

Sevilla FC Femenino beat Deportivo Alavés at home (1-0) on Saturday afternoon, thanks to Toni Payne’s crucial assist.

With nothing to separate the two sides, the Nigerian forward came off the bench in the 68th minute to replace Ana Franco, and made her impact felt.

She set up another substitute, Elisa del Estal for the winning goal in the 86th minute, her second league assist of the season.

The Nervionenses return to eighth position with 12 points and waiting to pay a visit next week to Villarreal CF, the other recently promoted.
