He Real Betis soared in an incredible way Anoeta with two goals from Channels (85 ') and Joaquin (93 ’) a match that Imanol he believed he had won much earlier for his Real, hence the carousel of changes in the final minutes that allowed to assert the highest quality of the Betic bench, from which they left William, Tello, Sanabria, Rodri and the eternal captain, Joaquín, who had not played a minute in LaLiga since December 23 and returned in a big way: assisting Canales to score with a header with a 'banana' brand from his band and then finishing off a good Tello's move on the other to leave the Donostiarras decomposed on the bell.
The first half was very even and in the same, as they say, the defenses were imposed on the forwards, which is why only had to register a clear chance of scoring, the one he had on his feet Guridi (35 ') after a good combination between Guevara and Merino, surprising Emerson with a measured pass behind him. Joel Robles responded with a huge save to the left-footed shot of the Gipuzkoan midfielder from the penalty spot, adding another decisive intervention for his team in recent games, as he did at El Molinón or last Wednesday against Celta.
The greatest danger of the Betis was always in the boots of Fekir, who got on well with Lainez on the right wing and up to three times (12 ', 27' and 43 ') tried the shot on Remiro's door, who blocked the first two and saw how the third, the most frank , was cleared by a defender to corner his head when looking for the goal.
The second half had nothing to do with the first, especially since the clash was broken very soon with the controversial 1-0, a long and confusing play in which Soto Grado did not whistle Merino's foul on Paul or positional offside of Portu -very similar to the one that they pointed to Ibiza before Athletic-, which must have confused Joel Robles, who ate Isak's focused shot that put Real with an advantage.
Not ten minutes later, Oyarzabal made it 2-0 after a great combination with Isak and between Joel and Gorosabel, who missed a frank rejection, they prevented him from going up 3-0.
He Betis it looked groggy, but Pellegrini He took five gamers off the bench and in the final stages the Real, who believed they had won, saw how between Canales and Joaquín they traced him.
