Thanks for following the match with us! We hope you enjoyed the meeting and its broadcast. Have a good night and see you next time!
Sevilla win! Deserved. The Julen Lopetegui players were totally superior from start to finish. Although equality was practically the keynote of the first half, everything changed after the break. Betis went from more to less, but the opportunities began to come from the local side and they could not stop the full onslaught of the Sevilla players. In the end, so much goes the pitcher to the source that in the end it breaks. Ocampos opened the scoring from the penalty spot – very clear from Marc Bartra on Luuk de Jong – and Fernando sentenced the clash after a genius from the Argentinean to head the net and sign the second goal of the night. Those of Rubi hardly generated danger and the rain of changes could not avoid defeat either. Sevilla will visit Levante on the next day and Betis will do the same at Villamarín in another Andalusian derby against Granada.
FULL TIME! SEVILLA 2-0 BETIS!
Passivity reigns on the field of play. Both Seville and Betis realize that this is over and there is not much more to tell. Those of Rubi do not even try to make up the result before the great defensive ability of the sevillistas.
Six minutes! All the stops and the barrage of substitutions force the game to see its end in the 96th minute!
One minute to reach 90! This is over and Sevilla is going to win the derby, more than a match, and keep the three points at home!
BLOCA DIEGO CARLOS! Tremendous shot with a thread by Joaquín that went straight to goal, but the Sevilla defender arrived on time and was in the right place to prevent him from reaching his goal!
We are in the final stretch of the crash! All the fish is sold in the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. The goals of Ocampos first and Fernando later ended up undermining the morale of a Betis who has not come out to play the second half. The victory and the three points are going to stay at home.
And the fifth and last change for Sevilla tonight! Óliver Torres retires from the field of play and Sergio Escudero has entered
Lopetegui also changes with a double substitution! Sergio Reguilón says goodbye to the derby after a great performance, especially in the first half, and Fránco 'el Mudo' Vázquez has entered his place.
Rubi changes sold out! Pedraza is the fifth chosen by the Betis coach to jump onto the field of play and Álex Moreno retires.
Third change at Sevilla! Again with a view to defending the result. Munir leaves the field of play and Suso enters.
Second change in the ranks of Sevilla! Luuk de Jong leaves the green of Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán and it is En-Nesyri who joins the game.
First change at Sevilla! Clearly with a view to holding the ball and, therefore, the result. Éver Banega will play his last Seville derby and will take the place of Lucas Ocampos.
Fourth and penultimate change for Betis! Loren Morón is now the chosen one to enter the field of play in the place of Borja Iglesias.
Third change in the Betis ranks! Rubi still wants to change the script of the game. Now remove Carles Aleñá to give Joaquín entrance.
OUT BORJA IGLESIAS! Betis' first dangerous chance! Álex Moreno was in charge of centering the ball from the left, but the shot with the head of the Verdiblanco striker went slightly off target!
We completed the first 20 minutes of the second half at Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. After what was seen during the first half, it is not surprising at all that Sevilla is two goals ahead against an apathetic Betis that does not recover from the blows of its rival. The siege and the moral and sports superiority of those of Lopetegui is increasingly latent.
GOOOOL! SEVILLA 2-0 Betis! Tremendous play after a corner kick! Center at the near post that Ocampos extended with a marvelous heel towards the second, where Fernando appeared completely only to head straight to the net and sign the second goal of the night!
Second change at Betis! Cristian Tello retires from the field of play and Lainez has come in his place.
With the result against, Rubi begins to move bench in order to be able to turn a marker that, seeing how the match goes, reflects the deserved advantage of a Sevilla that is dominating almost from start to finish.
GOOOOL! SEVILLA 1-0 Betis! The Seville team does not forgive from the eleven meters! Lucas Ocampos was responsible for materializing the maximum penalty with a powerful right hand to the opposite side to which Robles threw himself and puts Julen Lopetegui's men ahead!
PENALTY FOR SEVILLA! Play after a corner with a divided ball that ends with Bartra cautioned and committing a foul by jumping leaning on the shoulders of Luuk de Jong and knocking the Dutchman down!
Sevilla can't! It constantly dominates and besieges the area of a Betis locked under the sticks and that does not finish repelling the attacks of the Sevilla team, which generates danger and finds auctions that crash into green-white bodies! Closer to 1-0 than anything else!
First card of the party! A Betis player sees her. Mateu Lahoz begins to plant his standards and says that up to here. He will not tolerate a second half with so many fouls. Emerson is booked for a clear foul on Munir.
CUT OAKS! Play that was poisoned in the Betis area and ended with a ball without an owner! The Betis defense looked for any way to avoid the auction until, with a bit of movement through the front of the small area, they ended up with a bounce shot that stopped the Verdiblanco goalkeeper!
First change! Betis does it. Rubi decides to change something in his system and retires Sidnei to give Feddal entrance to the field of play.
ROLL THE BALL AGAIN!
Rest in the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán! Derby of intensity in the Seville feud. The Julen Lopetegui players demonstrate more danger when it comes to generating chances and have signed the best two in the first half through Ocampos and Koundé. The arrivals of Munir and Reguilón have determined the left wing as the main one when attacking. Betis, however, went from more to less. They have barely touched the ball in their offensive trident.
END OF THE FIRST PART! Sevilla 0-0 Betis!
We got to the 45th minute! After the regulatory time, Mateu Lahoz determines that the minutes added before pointing the way to the changing rooms is two! We will leave in '47!
The match is temporarily stopped! Fekir complains of a blow to the head in a collision with Munir when the Sevilla player assisted in defense. It existed, but not to require medical assistance. The meeting will resume in a few moments.
OUT OF CHANNELS! Betis's first chance! He found possession, went into attack looking for the front of the area with his good leg and found the shot with his left foot from about 30 meters, but he went slightly off the crossbar of the goal defended by Vaclik!
Less than ten minutes to complete the regulation time of the first half in the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán. Everything continues as it started. Sevilla have enjoyed the best occasions and it is who generates more sense of danger, but was not able to test Robles. Betis has gone from more to less over the minutes.
The match begins to equalize. The balance in the center of the field becomes somewhat remarkable and the intensity grows in that part of the field of play, where fouls and disputes for the ball become the protagonists.
We completed the first half hour of meeting! This means reaching the break and hydration period so that the players can regain some strength before continuing the match. It is also used to give a mini tactical talk.
OUT OF JONG! Center from the left of Munir, of great precision, who reached his goal at the first post, where the Dutch striker nodded cross to see how the leather went skimming the post!
We surpassed the equator of the first half and fouls are still very predominant in this first half. Now after Reguilon's clear tripping over Fekir, Mateu Lahoz is forced to stop the game once more and verbally caution everyone.
OUT KOUNDÉ! The clearest of the match along with the Ocampos post shot! Tremendous arrival of the Sevilla center back from a corner that headed to the near post, but his shot went near the post!
Jesus Navas offside! Very clear. The winger was ahead when he was alone entering on the right wing. The Sevilla player protested angrily, but he was wrong on this occasion. The play was well canceled.
We spent the first quarter of an hour of the game. Betis begins to falter, slightly. Long balls and a very limited game output given the pressure of a Sevilla that, for each moment that passes, is more superior.
A lot of intensity in these first 13 minutes of the game. Both Sevilla and Betis press very hard, high pressure and seeking to reach the rival area as quickly as possible. It is the Lopetegui team that, for now, is most in danger. However, none have been able to break the initial equalizer.
AL PALO! Sevilla had it! A tremendous kick from the inside of the area to the right, somewhat heeled, by Lucas Ocampos who shook the wood to remove the dust! The foundations trembled!
Long possession of Sevilla with several centers and the occasional corner kick. Julen Lopetegui's men play now with patience and verticality, but they do not finish breaking, for now, the solid defense of a Betis that has locked itself behind during this game of the Sevilla team.
First minutes of meeting and high blood pressure is the predominant key on the part of both teams. Both Sevilla and Betis have gone very far to avoid comfortable ball exits. A lot of intensity that will be difficult to endure for the 20 field players on the field of play throughout the entire match.
ROLL THE BALL IN SEVILLE!
Players are out on the pitch now! In a few moments, a couple of minutes, everyone will be in their respective positions to start day 28 of the Santander League! Let's get on with it!
Don't go too far! The resumption of LaLiga will take place in just over 10 minutes and with this moment as special as the Seville derby! Seville fights for Champions and Betis positions to settle with a little more force in the gold category! We wait for you!
The collegiate in charge of directing the clash between Sevilla and Betis in the Spanish fief is Antonio Miguel Mateu Lahoz, belonging to the Committee of Referees of the Valencian Community.
The Basque coach leaves no room for surprise. Defensive power and ability on the wing with Ocampos on the left and Navas on the right looking for the head of the Dutch striker, will be the keys to a Sevilla that has much to gain today.
This period of “rest” has served for the Verdiblanco coach to have his best strength to face this very special match. The verticality of Fekir and the success of Borja Iglesias at the top, added to the organization of Canales, will generate problems in the Seville field.
Let's go with the lineups of the meeting! Joan Francesc Rubi decides to go out with (4-3-3): Joel Robles – Emerson, Marc Bartra, Sidnei, Álex Moreno – Canales, Guido Rodríguez, Aleñá – Fekir, Borja Iglesias and Cristian Tello.
After three long months without soccer, LaLiga finally returns to our lives. They say that we are no longer the same and that things have changed, but what remains intact is the passion of the fans, who will not be deprived of even enjoying this Seville derby that opens fire. The scenario is completely new, that cannot be denied. The downtime has been long and the new rules approved for the competition will make us experience new situations and contexts. But Ocampos, Joaquín, Fekir or Navas are still footballers like the top of a pine tree, so we will have to be attentive to every flash they leave us. The show is about to return. Do not miss it!
Hello good night, welcome to the restart of LaLiga. And what better start than the Seville derby between Sevilla and Real Betis at Ramón Sánchez-Pizjuán.
