Sevilla 2 – Racing Santander 2 (La Liga, October 25, 2011) Manu had put Sevilla ahead eight minutes before half-time with a close range header. Hector Cuper’s side turned the game on its head with two goals on 62 and 69 from Ariel Nahuelpan and Jairo Samperio. Manu equalised in the 92nd minute with another Days after a heroic draw at the Camp Nou, which saw goalkeeper Javi Varas turn into something of a folk hero, Sevilla had the perfect chance to make another statement with bottom-dwelling Racing Santander coming to town. They didn't take it, despite being the better side throughout.
Manu headed Sevilla into the lead before the first half had ended, although the hosts probably feel that they deserved more after generating several chances prior to Manu's opener. They played well to start the second half as well, which made it a bit of a surprise when Racing, who had done approximately nothing but defend all match, struck twice in quick succession.
