Ronald Araujo says Barcelona’s draw at Sevilla is a ‘step forward’
Barcelona defender Ronald Araujo feels Tuesday’s draw against Sevilla in La Liga feels like a “step forward” for the Catalan giants.
Xavi’s side came away with a point from a rainy Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan Stadium after an entertaining 1-1 draw.
Lucas Ocampos had opened the scoring but Araujo leveled with a great header. Sevilla were reduced to 10 in the second half when Jules Kounde saw red for throwing the ball into Jordi Alba’s face.
Araujo faced the press after the match and praised his team’s performance although he did admit it was disappointing not to take home all three points.
“I think it’s a step forward. It was a great performance against a tough rival away from home,” he said.
