The national goal witnessed the victory of the team led by Manuel Pellegrini over Rayo Vallecano, 2-1.
The Real Betis which included bravo claudio on the substitute bench, he won his visit to Rayo Vallecano. With an own goal from Iván Balliu and a goal from Luiz Henrique, the cast led by Manuel Pellegrini beat the hosts 2-1 and got into the Champions League zone .
An interesting La Franja team was a difficult stumbling block for the genius team. Both teams were looking to add three to continue in the middle of the fight to qualify for international cups.
Betis, true to their style, started with possession in their possession and tried to unfold their game on the pitch. Soon the opening of the account would happen. At 6′ and after a more than fortuitous action, the Sevillians strike first. A corner from the right complicated the Rayista defense. Alejandro Catena heads the ball in an attempt to clear, but the shot bounces off the back of Iván Balliu, who scores a curious goal against his own goal. Fortune did not accompany those of Vallecas.
Sergio Camello scored the parity in the 20th minute thanks to an error from goalkeeper Rui Silva, who left a rough rebound after a long shot. The game turned into a constant back and forth, although Betis gradually lost prominence. It no longer found its well-oiled functioning, the individualities were therefore more and more important. Meanwhile, Rayo started his collective game, moving up in blocks and projecting towards his full-backs.
A goal worth a lot
The engineer was clearly confused. And of course, he was not happy with the performances of his pupils, who only had flashes thanks to the outbursts of some of his footballers. Thus, in the absence of five minutes to respect the regulation time, a new discount would intervene. Luiz Henrique recovered near midfield and raised his head. The Brazilian striker defeated a rival player, tackled and finished from the edge of the box. Stole Dimitrievski couldn’t do anything against a tight, powerful cross shot . Betis were in the lead thanks to a fine resolve. A great goal, with all its letters.
The Verdiblanco box was ordered in the complement, especially with the entry of Guido Rodríguez. The face of the Sevillians has changed and they have brought out the game that characterized them last season. Rodrigo de Tomas entered at minute 63 and sparked an uproar in the stands of the Madrid hall. It was the return of the rayista idol.
Local distribution received a sudden blow, but of a positive nature. Immediately after the substitution, Isi Palazón grew bolder and scored a superb goal. The midfielder received a rebound after serving a free kick, attacked on the right wing, passed two players and scored above the near post. It was tied, but the goal was ruled out due to offside in the previous action. The annotation was thrown out after Judge Díaz de Mera reviewed the VAR. One more life for the béticos.
This unbalanced Rayo, who was living his best moment. Betis found themselves and started to manage their advantage, but without stopping to attack. He had two clubs to widen the gap, but luck was not on the side of the Engineer team. However, They managed to protect the goal against the onslaught of the locals and secured the victory for Vallecas. In this line, the team led by the Engineer rose to fourth position in the Hispanic contest, with 28 units. Meanwhile, Rayo Vallecano was stuck in eighth place, with 23 points.
