Erik Lamela continued his flying start to life in Spain with Sevilla, the Argentine striking a last-minute winner to give them a 1-0 victory over Getafe in La Liga on Monday.

Lamela, who came off the bench last week to net twice on his debut last weekend, scored with almost the last kick of the game to reward Sevilla’s sustained late pressure.

The win means they join Atletico Madrid as the only two sides with a 100% record since the season begun.

A dull encounter sparked into life when Sevilla’s Oussama Idrissi had the game’s first effort on target after 70 minutes, and it was one way traffic from then on.

Defender Jules Kounde headed over before Diego Carlos was denied by a flying save from David Soria as Sevilla turned the screw.

Sevilla’s Youssef En-Nesyri thought he had scored with eight minutes remaining but his lobbed effort was ruled out for offside.

But there would be a twist in the fourth minute of stoppage time as En-Nesyri played in debutant Rafa Mir.

The substitute’s effort hit the woodwork, however former Tottenham Hotspur forward Lamela was on hand to steer the rebound into an empty net and secure all three points.

Sevilla visit Elche next Saturday as they look to make it three from three, while Getafe will seek their first points of the campaign when they travel to Barcelona on Sunday.
