Sevilla coach Manolo Jimenez rued a "lack of concentration" for the goals his side conceded in the 4-2 win away to Atletico Ciudad in the first leg of their fourth round Copa del Rey tie.

Guille Roldan scored twice for the hosts but Sevilla went on to win thanks to a brace from Luis Fabiano, one from Digeo Capel and Jesus Navas with all goals coming inside the first half.

"There is no easy opponent. We gave too many chances. The result is good, but we had to make a big effort. We were not accurate  in front of goal," he remarked afterwards, according to AS.

Despite being disappointed by certain aspects of his teams performance, Jimenez was glad that his sides attacking prowess showed.

"The lack of concentration bothers me. Without getting lost on result we could have been better but the result shows the threat we possess up front," he declared.
