MATCH REPORT | Defeat in Granada (2-0)

Real Betis Balompié was defeated today by Granada CF. The match became difficult quite soon for the Green and Whites, as Granada scored a penalty quite early in the game. Soldado, who scored the penalty, double his tally a few minutes later to close the score.
The game started quite poorly for Betis, as the referee pointed to the spot in the 11th minute for a tackle by Rodríguez on Suárez. Soldado did not miss the shot. Just seven minutes later, Soldado scored again after a mistake by Betis' defense.
In the second half, Betis tried to attack more and control the game, but Granada defended quite solidly and barely conceded chances.
