MATCH REPORT | Victory under the rain and onto the next round (0-4)

Tello, Kaptoum, Lainez and Meléndez scored the goals

Real Betis Balompié qualified for the next round of Copa del Rey after beating CA Antoniano. The team got the lead soon from the penalty spot through Tello. Kaptoum scored the second also in the first half. In the second half, Lainez, with a great free kick, and Academy player Meléndez, who made his debut today, closes the score.

The main anecdote before the game was that today, for the first time ever, Real Betis were the visitors at Benito Villamarín Stadium.

Once in the game, Betis had a chance early on after a good team play that ended with a cross from Barragán that Tello couldn't finish in the far post. A few minutes later, Lainez was brought down inside the area and the referee did not hesitate. Tello scored from the spot. CA Antoniano had a couple of approaches but not dangerous.

In the 25th minute, a good play between Kaptoum and Borja Iglesias. The latter produced a phenomenal pass and the Cameroonian finished it with a good curled effort. Francis tried from distance a couple of minutes later, but Andrés blocked it. The first for the locals was in the 35th with a free to which Dani Martín responded well.

The second half went underway with one change in Betis, as Bartra came on for Sidnei. Just after the start, the Green and Whites had a great chance to score the third but a defender blocked over the goal line an effort from Tello. However, a few minutes later, the third did come. Lainez took a free kick magnificently to the top right corner. The game was under absolute control from Betis. Bartra almost scored from midfield but the ball went just over the bar.

The pace of the game lowered down considerably. Also, some areas of the pitch were completely flooded and it made difficult to play. Lainez almost scored his second but a defender cleared on the line. The fourth finally come and it was the Academy player Meléndez who scored it. On his debut. Nothing much happened and Real Betis will be in the next round.
