MATCH REPORT | Draw in Valladolid (0-0)

The team played with one man less for one hour

Real Betis got a point in their game against Real Valladolid. In a goalless game, the team had to play for most of the game after Pezzella saw a straight red card.

The game started with an early chance by Borja Iglesias. From that moment, the game became slow and thick, with barely any chance. However, the match changed drastically when the referee sent Germán Pezzella off. Before half time, Rui Silva made a great save to deny the locals.

The home side came on strong after half time. Rui Silva again made a great save to a shot from Iván Sánchez. Five minutes later, Sergio León did not finish well a dangerous play. Real Betis resisted well after this early push.
