The team played well and is starting to perform as a combined unit.
The first half was close with Emerald trying hard, but basic mistakes let Seville in for a couple of quick goals.
The second half was similar as the players are still becoming used to playing together and the team is made up of 15 new faces with two joining in the last week.
Although Emerald lost, it was a 16goal improvement from the previous match against Seville.
