Isi breaks into Isco's day

Betis and Rayo gave a lesson in daring at Villamarín without any of them being able to take the final glory. A distribution of points that perhaps no one wanted. Pellegrini's men, guided by the magic of Isco and Lo Celso, came across a great goal from Isi when he was trying to get his victory on track after a penalty scored by the man from Malaga on the day of his return to ownership. Among those brushstrokes of talent, talent Batalla also broke out to stop the local momentum and win two high-flying challenges against Vitor Roque and Juanmi. No one ended up reigning in madness.

It didn't seem bad to Rayo that Betis took the ball at the start. Maybe that was in Íñigo Pérez's plan. As an assumption when faced with Isco and Lo Celso in construction. Pellegrini wanted both on stage and the adaptation was progressive. The man from Malaga wanted to go to all the places. The Argentine insisted less on pressure but always outlined verticality in his interventions. It took Vitor Roque a minute to test Batalla after a ball fought by Isco. It was the message sent by Pellegrini's people to state your intentions. Those initial minutes threatened with vertigo that calmed down from the moment Álvaro García threatened space. Sabaly watched him, but Betis understood that the risks were multiple. Under that scene almost everything slowed down. Johnny couldn't control everything in the destruction and Lightning found some respite there. In one of Álvaro's appearances He managed to beat Vieites' goal, but Embarba's position was not regulation.

The scare invited Betis to regain control. Isco went to the construction base and Lo Celso went to Isco. Among them I wanted to be the protagonist Go awayas insistent as it is somewhat erratic in its challenges. But it was in one of those endless triangulations that are born in Isco when the green and white team found the spaces for Vitor Roque will combine with Sabaly and he will find the Brazilian again in the area. His control caused Álvaro's involuntary penalty and García Verdura did not hesitate. Isco grabbed the ball, tricked Batalla and celebrated with that 1-0 his return to ownership.

Íñigo Pérez launched his team's pressure higher after the restart and it didn't take him long to find a reward for his daring. A failed control by Perraud motivated Isi to find the space to launch a missile from outside the area that surprised Fran Vieites. Rayista smile and new duel on stage. It was Pellegrini's turn for his plan to find another way. Abde tested Batalla's reflexes again and Vitor Roque continued in his particular battle to fight everything and crossed his shot too far after a wink of Isco's backheel. Rayo remained firm without forgetting the goal of Vieites, who had to appear again in another distant attempt by the Madrid team.

Isco ran out of air and Fornals reappeared to take control of the Betis midfield. The back and forth was already total. Lo Celso used his magic to create a perfect pass for Vitor Roque, but the Brazilian ran into Batalla after making a mistake in his definition. Isi took over the madness to draw a thread that this time Vieites did know how to read. Betis revolutionized their attack and Batalla was once again the savior in a good start against Juanmi after the umpteenth Lo Celso's differential pass. Betis pushed harder and Rayo resisted well until they had theirs to win the duel, but De Frutos missed his shot in injury time when he had everything facing Vieites. A final distribution that perhaps left no one happy. Betis will continue looking at Europe from afar. El Rayo, meanwhile, continues to look for its place in this League.
