MADRID, Nov. 22 (Xinhua) -- Sevilla on Wednesday confirmed that coach Eduardo Berizzo is suffering from prostate cancer.
The football club issued a statement on its website confirming the diagnosis and explaining that "future examinations will allow us to decide the next stages of its treatment."
The news was published just hours after the 48-year-old coach had watched as his side fought from 3-0 down to a heroic 3-3 draw at home to Liverpool in the Champions League.
The 93rd minute goal saw all of the Sevilla players and staff race to hug the coach, implying that they knew of his illness before the start of the game.
