And this game has come this far !! Thanks for following us! We hope you enjoyed the meeting and its broadcast. Until next time!
A different dynamic to that of Eibar, which has scored in each of the last three league dates. He has not lost for a month when Cádiz won in Ipurua.
It is the third consecutive defeat for the Verdiblanco team, which in this period has conceded 11 goals and has only scored two goals. Those of Pellegrini have only won one of the last six days.
It does not stop the bleeding of goals that Real Betis concedes. It is already the team with the most goals of the season (23), averaging two goals conceded per game.
With a goal and an assist, Esteban Burgos continues to give Mendilibar reasons to earn the starting position in the back row. The Argentine, with his penalty target tonight, is already the highest scoring defender in the current championship.
Yoshinori Muto's first goal in LaLiga was the beginning that marked the triumph of Eibar. The Japanese makes his debut as a scorer in Spanish football and reconciles with the goal, something he had not done since August 2019 (with Newcastle United).
The Eibar Sports Society takes all three points in its visit to the Heliópolis neighborhood !!! The gunsmiths manage to beat Real Betis (0-2) with goals from Yoshinori Muto and Esteban Burgos in the second half. Impotence in the Betic team, which still does not find the key to play. Despite dominating with the ball, Pellegrini's men did not enjoy scoring scenarios. The defensive errors facilitated the work of Eibar, who took advantage of the set piece.

Eibar continues to establish a first line of pressure for the green-and-white centrals, closely following Guido Rodríguez and William Carvalho so that they cannot help in the creation work.
Real Betis is unable to rebuild either in terms of game or in terms of spirit.

Muscle problems for Yoshinori Muto. The Japanese man hurts and is lying on the ground. It doesn't seem like I can continue.
FACT. Eibar has achieved in this match a third of the total of the goals that they added in the previous ten days.
WHAT ESTEBAN BURGOS HAS FORGIVEN !!! WHAT PROBLEMS THE BETIS HAS IN DEFENSE! A badly taken lateral foul turns into an excellent assist for Esteban Burgos, incredulous at the option of shooting when the ball had passed between several rivals. The Argentine's shot takes it out as Joel Robles can to avoid the third.
Twenty minutes remain until the conclusion of the match. The Betic team needs two goals to equalize the contest. Eibar wins at home (0-2).
He also dispenses with Antonio Sanabria to bet on Diego Lainez.
Pellegrini exhausts the quota of the changes. Borja Iglesias enters the scene in the place of Nabil Fekir.
Betis has raised its percentage of possession to 66% throughout this second half. Despite this control, he has only kicked between clubs on two occasions.
Borja Iglesias and Diego Lainez, ready to be the next changes. Pellegrini continues looking for the key that changes the party.
FACT. Yoshinori Muto has become the first Japanese player to score in LaLiga, the Premier League and the Bundesliga.
Nabil Fekir rehearses his shot from medium range. His shot does not carry enough force to surprise Dmitrovic.
Bryan Gil is booked for knocking down Nabil Fekir with no option to contest the ball.
Eibar decides not to lock up. He does not take risks but chooses to stay away from Marko Dmitrovic's goal.
FACT. Esteban Burgos is the top scorer defender in the current domestic championship (three goals), with a record higher than Sergio Ramos (two).
We reached game time in the Heliópolis neighborhood. The goals of Yoshinori Muto and Esteban Burgos put Eibar ahead (0-2).
Real Betis is broken. Defensively, the Andalusians are suffering a lot from the energy and courage of Bryan Gil and Alejandro Pozo.
Bryan Gil shot! Joel Robles reaches in to avoid the third! Edu Expósito finds a space with which he launches the one from Barbate, who is roiling Marc Bartra until he has the option of finishing.
FACT. The team led by Manuel Pellegrini has conceded 23 goals in 11 games, an average of two goals conceded per game.

And he retires Tello to bet on Loren Morón.

PENALTY FOR EIBAR !!! JOEL ROBLES GARRAFAL FAILURE !! The goalkeeper leaves the small area to cover the rise of Rober Correa and ends up overwhelming him.
FACT. Spain is the fourth country in which Yoshinori Muto has scored. He did it in Japan with Tokyo, in Germany with Mainz 05, in England with Newcastle United and now in Spain with Eibar.
Pellegrini was quick to react. After Muto's goal, he quickly called William Carvalho and Loren Morón to enter the field.
Yoshinori Muto's first goal in LaLiga. The Japanese opens his scoring account after eight games in the elite of Spanish football.
Esteban Burgos signs up the assistance.

Nabil Fekir's Shot! The Frenchman receives from the outside, is oriented towards the inside and arms the shot from outside the area. His shot is stopped by Marko Dmitrovic.
Mendilibar maintains the eleven protagonists who started the duel. William Carvalho, Loren Morón and Víctor Ruiz perform warm-up exercises in the Villamarín band.
THE SECOND TIME STARTS IN THE BENITO VILLAMARÍN !!!
Before the start of the second act, Pellegrini retouches the team. He removes Emerson from the field to put Martín Montoya in.
With Andrés Guarded far from his best version and with Sergio Canales injured, Pellegrini needs the best Nabil Fekir in the construction zone. And it is not succeeding. The Frenchman is the third from Betis with the fewest ball actions (22), only surpassed by Tello (18) and Antonio Sanabria (14).
The pressure exerted by Eibar is causing problems for Real Betis, which does not intend to change the pattern of play but at the same time commits endless inaccuracies due to the rush that does not allow it to develop the game it needs.
Party of few occasions. Distribution of shots on goal (one) between the two teams. Both Joel Robles and Marko Dmitrovic have been essential to stop that occasion but the danger is low.
REST IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF HELIÓPOLIS !!!! Real Betis and Sociedad Deportiva Eibar take the road to the changing rooms with the tables on the scoreboard (0-0). Mastery of the local team's ball that has failed to translate into scoring chances. Only one hand in hand from Tello that Dmitrovic solved by taking his foot could put the Verdiblancos ahead. Something that the Barça team did when Bryan Gil headed a ball that Joel Robles could not stop but Takashi Inui, offside, pushed the leather to the bottom of the tights, being annulled by Martínez Munuera.
END OF THE FIRST PART IN THE BENITO VILLAMARÍN !!!
Edu Expósito's whip from outside the area that comes out very high.

Marc Bartra clearance! Bryan Gil hangs a foul at the far post, where Pedro Bigas extends for a teammate who was waiting at the far post to finish off. Bartra anticipates and drives away the danger.
Verbal warning from Martínez Munuera to Marc Bartra for a foul on Yoshinori Muto.
Final stretch of the first period at Benito Villamarín. Five minutes to go to break. The goal is resisted (0-0).
Many problems for Real Betis when it comes to avoiding the high pressure of the gunsmith team.
Mendilibar tries to lift the spirits of his players, asking them to maintain the intensity so that the cancellation of the goal after the intervention of technology does not affect them.
GOAL CANCELED AT EIBAR !!! Martínez Munuera, after consulting with the VAR, decrees Takashi Inui offside! The Japanese finished hitting a ball that slipped into the bottom of the tights, stealing the target from Bryan Gil.
Nabil Fekir's offensive foul! The Frenchman is measured in the race with Pedro Bigas and ends up falling inside the area. Martínez Munuera appreciates that the Betic is going to collide with the Barça defender.
Essay by Anaitz Arbilla! The armorer captain sees Joel Robles well ahead and tries his luck from the middle of the field with a ball that does not take direction towards the three suits.
We reached half an hour of play at Benito Villamarín. The tie to zero (0-0) persists.
Alejandro Pozo goes offside. The game of the Basques is developing by the bands.
Bryan Gil tries to activate the gunsmith team. The one from Barbate appears frequently on the left side, offering to revolutionize in the final meters.
Long possessions by the Andalusian team. Eibar strives to close ranks from within and hinder the circulation of its rival.
What a detail of Joaquín Sánchez! The one from Puerto de Santa María stretches to puncture a long ball. At 39 years old, he continues to leave flashes of quality.
FACT. Only Marc Bartra (21) and Sidnei (17) have given more total passes than Joel Robles (15). The goal, always very participatory when it comes to having weight in the development of the Real Betis game.
TELLOOOOOOOOO !!!! WHAT A STOP BY MARKO DMITROVIC !!! Guido filters into space so that Tello is measured in a heads up with the Serbian. His shot is repelled with the foot by the goalkeeper.
Guido Rodríguez arrives just in time to put out the fire in defense. Pozo manages to tame a rained ball and serve to the front for the arrival of a teammate. The Argentine appears there to regain possession.
Eibar exerts high pressure to make it difficult for their rival to get the ball out. And it is that Betis commit too many inaccuracies when they do not have spaces to play.
Dmitrovic about to get Joel Robles in trouble! The Serbian kicks hard long and forces the Betic goalkeeper to leave his domain to prevent Muto from making that shot good.
First yellow of the match. Martínez Munuera admonishes Emerson for a grab on Arbilla to try to recover a ball that he had previously lost under pressure from his rival.
About to reach the first quarter of an hour in the Heliópolis neighborhood of Seville. Nobody manages to move the score (0-0).
Maximum equality at Benito Villamarín. Both sets continue to test each other. Neither makes a firm statement of intent.
Neither Pellegrini nor Mendilibar sit on their benches. They both stand in their technical zone, handing out instructions.
FACT. With three goals, Kike García is Eibar's top gunner, author of 50% of the goals in this domestic campaign. The Murcian is not in today's game because he was sent off in the last day's match against Getafe.
Between Marc Bartra and Emerson they manage to stop Bryan Gil. The one from Barbate starts from the inside to the outside, in search of space. Correct the home defense well.

Corner for Real Betis! Álex Moreno joins the attack and ends up taking a corner kick after putting a cross that touches an opponent.
At the hands of Dmitrovic! The Serbian anticipates to take possession of the ball after the poor service executed by Joaquín Sánchez.

Muto, with a lot of mobility in the first minutes. The Japanese falls for the bands to stretch his team.
Eibar presses up in the first movements of Betis with the ball.
Real Betis first time! Cristian Tello receives on the balcony of the front and places the ball inside Dmitrovic's long post. The shot goes wide.
THE PARTY STARTS IN THE BENITO VILLAMARÍN !!! Betis puts the ball in play !!
We already have both teams on the pitch! This is about to go! Are you going to miss it?
The collegiate Juan Martínez Munuera, belonging to the Valencian Committee, will be in charge of delivering justice. The one from Benidorm has accumulated more than 130 games in LaLiga since it debuted in the highest category of Spanish football in the 2013/14 campaign. He will be assisted at the VAR by David Medié Jiménez (Committee of Referees of Catalonia).
José Luis Mendilibar has only won in one of his nine visits to Real Betis in LaLiga (4E 4D). It was a 0-4 in January 2016, in his first meeting leading his current team at Benito Villamarín in the competition.
The Heliopolitan team has conceded 21 goals in 10 LaLiga games this season, its worst defensive record at this stage in the competition since 1965/66 (26 goals), the season in which it ended up declining.
The gunsmiths have not lost in their last three away games in LaLiga (2V 1E). They have not linked four or more without defeat in the away competition since May 2018 (2V 2E).
Eibar have only lost in one of their last six visits to Andalusian teams in LaLiga (2V 3E). He managed to win the last match (0-1 against Sevilla last October) and has never won two in a row.
Interestingly, that 0-4 victory in January is the Barça's biggest win as a visitor in LaLiga, along with another 0-4 against Valencia in February 2017.
After losing their first game at Benito Villamarín in LaLiga to Eibar (0-4 in January 2016), Real Betis have not lost in their last four at home to the Basques in the competition (2V 2E).
Eibar is a rival that Real Betis is choking on especially in recent days. They have not won in their last four games against the gunsmiths, with a balance of results of three draws and one loss. It's their worst winless streak against them in the top flight.
MUTO IS OWNER !!! With the sanction of Kike García, Mendilibar places Yoshinori Muto as '9'. Nor is Paulo Oliveira, injured, so his position is occupied by Esteban Burgos.
NABIL FEKIR RETURNS !!! Pellegrini recovers the Frenchman and resolves the casualties of Claudio Bravo and Canales, injured, giving entry to Joel Robles and Andrés Guardado. The withdrawal of Mandi, isolated after his positive for coronavirus, opens the doors of ownership to Sidnei.
For his part, José Luis Mendilibar comes out with the following eleven players (4-2-3-1): Marko Dmitrovic – Rober Correa, Esteban Burgos, Pedro Bigas, Anaitz Arbilla – Pape Diop, Edu Expósito – Alejandro Pozo, Bryan Gil, Takashi Inui. Yoshinori Muto.
We already have the initial eleven confirmed !! Manuel Pellegrini puts the following line-up on the line (4-2-3-1): Joel Robles – Emerson, Marc Bartra, Sidnei, Álex Moreno – Guido Rodríguez, Andrés Guardado – Joaquín Sánchez, Nabil Fekir, Cristian Tello – Antonio Sanabria.
This lack of success in the final meters leads Eibar to add tie after tie. It comes from signing tables in the last two days (1-1 vs Huesca and 0-0 vs Getafe). Only Huesca (seven) sign more draws than the Basques (four).
A weakness that will be put to the test, precisely, by the team with the least LaLiga goal. Eibar has only scored six goals in ten games, missing a rival goal in half of the league dates. Only Kike García (three), Esteban Burgos (two) and Kévin Rodrigues (one) have managed to celebrate a target in this course.
And it is that the Andalusian box bleeds in defense. They are the team that has received the most goals (21) before the start of Matchday 11. In that sense, they receive an average of two goals per game.
That triumph is the only one harvested by the Betic team in the last five days. Pellegrini's project does not finish carbureting and he has only been able to add three points out of the last 15 possible, scoring five targets and conceding 17 goals.
Verdiblancos and azulgranas are in charge of closing the eleventh league date of the domestic championship. They do it at Benito Villamarín, a fiefdom in which the local team managed to break a streak of consecutive losses after beating Elche at the beginning of the month.
Good night Everybody! Welcome to the broadcast of this match between Real Betis Balompié and Sociedad Deportiva Eibar, corresponding to the eleventh day of LaLiga 2020/21. We begin with the preview of the meeting (9:00 p.m.)!
