Chidera Ejuke made a significant impact by scoring his first LaLiga goal as Sevilla secured a 2-1 victory over Real Valladolid at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium on Tuesday night.

This win marked Sevilla’s second triumph in the Spanish top-flight this season.

Ejuke, who began the match on the bench, came on for Jesus Navas in the 61st minute.

The game saw Sevilla take the lead just before halftime, with Gerard Peque scoring in the dying moments of the first half. However, Kike Perez equalized for Valladolid in the 56th minute.

With only five minutes left on the clock, Ejuke fired home the decisive goal, ensuring a memorable night for the Rojiblancos.

In the match, Ejuke’s compatriot, Kelechi Iheanacho, also started but was substituted for Suso shortly after the hour mark.

Sevilla moved to 12th position on the table following the win.
