Scores winner late
Catena scored one goal to go with two shots (one on goal) in Sunday's 2-1 win over Sevilla.
Analysis: Catena rose up in the 99th minute to power home the winner in Sunday's 2-1 home victory over Sevilla, meeting Moi Gomez's pinpoint cross and burying a thunderous header past Odysseas Vlachodimos to cap off a dramatic late comeback that sent El Sadar into absolute chaos. He also put in a rock-solid shift at center-back, finishing with 10 clearances and two tackles over a full 90 minutes of control and composure. Catena now sits on three La Liga goals this season, setting a new personal best for the defender.
Eligible after ban
Catena served his league suspension in Tuesday's loss to Athletic and could play again going forward.
Analysis: Catena will look to rejoin Enzo Boyomo in the center-back pairing, relegating Jorge Herrando to the bench in upcoming contests. Catena has enjoyed meaningful playing time, and he's a solid source of defensive output, leading the team with an average of 6.1 clearances per game this season.
