Incidents
Benito Villamarín (48,132 spectators).
The visiting team started off “bossy”, wanting to impose their game despite being against a team that is also usually very dominant like the Betis. Moleiro on the left he overflowed twice Bellerin and The Palms gave a couple of scares to the Villamarín fans. That Canarian impetus did not last long.
He Betis He soon reversed that hesitant start and began playing to the tune of Isco, one more day. With Guido and Carvalho very solid in the center of the field, and Ayoze and Luis Henrique banded incisors, the green and white began to find spaces and make themselves shine Alvaro Valles. Mainly, also, after robberies in dangerous areas in the rival field when the ball is released from The Palms.
In one of those actions came the first goal of the Pellegrini. Guido He jumped to the pressure and left the ball for Iscoafter a house brand-oriented control, you will be left alone before Valleys. He arrived forced and could only put his toe in, but there he was Willian Jose to take advantage of the goalkeeper’s rebound. Sixth goal in league of the Brazilian, tenth among all competitions.
The game began to change direction little by little in the second half. Carvalho He was injured shortly after leaving the locker room and Betis He lost a lot in the center of the field. Very little presence in attack of the green and white The Palms He was growing and taking the reins of the game, although without any bite at the top despite the continuous presence he had near the goal of Friday.
Munir He missed a goal with a shot that he sent wide after a low cross from the right. The assistant raised the flag, but the goal would have gone up on the scoreboard if he had gone in because he was in the correct position. The feeling was that The Palms deserved more and that the goal of the tie was much closer than the second of the Betis.
But the scoreboard did not move and the Betis He kept his fiefdom intact. Five wins, two draws and no defeats this season for the Beticos at Villamarín. They tie at 24 points with the Athletic in sixth position, one behind Real, and the most important thing is the gap of five points that opens between the European zone and what comes behind.
