MATCH REPORT | A point that could have been three (2-2)

Fekir and Canales scored the goals

Third draw in a row for Real Betis. After the stalemate in the last two matches, against Elche and Atletico de Madrid, the Green and Whites hosted Valencia CF on Sunday. The target was to get a good result and take advantage in the fight for European competitions. However, the Béticos, who took the lead twice, couldn't get a win and got just one point.

The game began in fantastic way for the men managed by Pellegrini, as Fekir opened the score after just eleven minutes. But they joy did not last for long, as Guedes tied the score up again soon afterwards. The goal made Betis react and controlled the entire first half. In fact, Canales gave the team the lead again just before half time with sensational strike.

Once in the second half, Valencia CF managed to score again, this time from the penalty spot. Soler did not miss after a handball from Alex Moreno inside the area. After that, Betis pushed forward and had several chances to score again, but could not find the back of net. Especially important were two great saves by Domenech to efforts from Ruibal.
