Fighting Spirit
After conceding the second goal during the 41st minute, the Rosenborg players worked harder than ever. They were both creative and assertive while attacking, which was a testament to their intent to bag an equalizer before halftime.
However, their efforts didn't bear fruit due to Sevilla's team discipline during the last four minutes of the first half. The Sevilla players defended as if their lives were on the line and showcased more than a hundred percent of their abilities to thwart any chances of Rosenborg making a comeback. As a result, the score remained 2:1 in favor of Sevilla when the players marched down the tunnel for halftime.
