"We made a very big effort and football is being unfair to us. What we have to do is continue working hard," Sevilla manager Diego Alonso said after their draw against Villarreal.
"It seems that what happens to us is not normal, after the effort, the match, the game we play, and not taking it away. It is what we have had to do and we have to continue working and continue pushing because the returns are there.
