The right to hope for a European ticket continued to be defended by Betis.
His team Manuel Pellegrini did the obvious for a team that has top-six aspirations and passed comfortably (2-0) from Cadiz.
Already in the 6th minute, the “verdiblancos” had laid the foundations for the necessary three-pointer with a shot of Willian through the area.
And with the start of the second half, the first goal of the newly acquired Fornals (with a beautiful fake shot) effectively signed the double.
Thus, Betis once again landed the hosts in their harsh reality danger zone (after the white ties they had extracted from Bilbao and Villarreal).
But mostly she kept herself in orbit of Europepassing (even while waiting for the other races) to sixth place of the rating.
