The Krivoy Rog club has not done anything against its famous opponent and is in danger of being left without European Cups.
Krivbass was predicted to lose to Betis in the first match of the Conference League qualification. Despite the nominally home status of the match, the Krivoy Rog team did not create problems for the Spanish club and easily lost.
Manuel Pellegrini’s side confirmed their status as favorites in Kosice, Slovakia, scoring in the 13th minute. And in the middle of the second half, the Seville team doubled their advantage and confidently brought the match to victory.
The return match between Betis and Kryvbas will take place in Spain on Thursday, August 29.
