Tecatitio Corona was the man of the match last night at Ciutat de Valencia. In a crucial game for the team, the Mexican winger scored to put his team ahead on two occasions. The white and reds achieve an important win against Levante which allowed them to continue their fight to secure a Champions League place, in a game in which Tecatito was rewarded for his work in the last few months since he arrived at Sevilla in the January transfer window. The two goals against the side from Valencia were the start for the man from Hermosillo, who had been making more of a difference game by game. 

The importance of Tecatito, who arrived three months ago from Porto, was once again shown. In fact, the winger has been involved in four goals in his last three games in La Liga - the goals against Levante as well as asissts against Granada and Real Madrid. His other assists this season came against Celta and Rayo. The player will especially remember yesterday's game for the win and for achieving one of his aims since he arrived. Also, his performance had an important impact in his home country Mexico. In fact, it is worth highlighting that Tecatito Corona is the first Mexican to score twice in a La Liga game since Carlos Vela in October 2015 with Real Sociedad, interestingly also against Levante. 

Once the game was finished the player was happy with both the goals and the win away from home, something that had eluded the team in recent weeks: "I was already feeling it but today I go away happy with the two goals and with the result that we wanted." He also highlighted his link up play with Lucas Ocampos: "I look at the eyes of Ocampos and I know what to do. We know it is going to be difficult and we turned the game around by responding well. There are several finals left which we have to win."
