Standard Liege 0-0 Sevilla

Sevilla continued their Europa League title defence with an
underwhelming 0-0 draw at troubled Standard Liege on
Thursday.
The Belgian Pro League side went into the encounter in
wretched form after six defeats in their last 12 matches in all
competitions, while Sevilla sit second in La Liga.
But they held Sevilla to a draw to leave Group G in the balance,
despite almost stealing a late victory themselves.
Standard went into the match on the back of a tumultuous
weekend as crowd trouble brought about the suspension of
their clash with Zulte Waregem and the subsequent resignation
of coach Guy Luzon.
It then came as little surprise when in-form Sevilla looked to
dominate the early proceedings, with Jose Antonio Reyes forcin
Yohann Thuram into a good stop from 25 yards in the 11th
minute.
