Bakambú silences Son Moix – AS.com

Betis gets three points at the buzzer, thanks to a goal from Bakambú. Mallorca was left with one less due to the expulsion of Mascarell. Beyond the victory, the good performance of the Betis youth players, who made their debut with the first team, is the other great news. Mallorca still has not won and has not scored a goal in 2025.

The lack of success meant that Mallorca did not go into the break with a favorable score, even a large one. The tempo of the game was set by Darder with the help of Mascarell and Samu Costa and the ball was vermilion. Samu Costa, on two occasions from the front, Darder, Robert Navarro, Mojica and Dani Rodríguez tried to open the scoring, but on some occasions Adrián, Betis goalkeeper, and on other occasions faulty shots prevented the scoreboard from moving. Robert Navarro forced the visiting defense to the maximum. The Mallorcan player overwhelmed easily, although Natan, always attentive, avoided major problems.

On the Betic side, the two best chances were from Marc Roca, with a long shot, and from Copete. The Mallorcan central defender gave a poisoned pass to Greif who had to hurry to prevent the ball from sneaking into his goal. The typical goal that would have delighted social networks, but that the Slovakian avoided.

On the part of Pellegrini’s side, little more, some flashes from Abde on the wing, some lukewarm gallops from Jesús Rodríguez and the wasted efforts of Vítor Roque in the pressure, more spectacular than effective.

The time in the locker room suited Pellegrini’s team better. The Chilean made a move and brought in Altimira in Marc Roca’s place. The ball belonged to the visiting team, while Mallorca saw two yellow cards in just two minutes. Isco, unnoticed in the first half, began to take center stage and infected the team, especially Jesús Rodríguez, who needs little to bring out his quality. The first ten minutes of the restart were visitorsTherefore Arrasate, who followed the game from the stands due to suspension, decided to recover the ball and prepared changes to regain control of the ball. And, at times, he succeeded, but Pellegrini nipped him in the bud with the entry of Bakambú and Juanmi. They had barely been on the field for a minute when Isco stole a ball and mounted a counterattack with the newcomers who almost had a reward. Maffeo avoided it. The game regained its rhythm. Until Omar Mascarell made a hard tackle on Jesús Rodríguez that ended with both of them off the grass. The Mallorcan player received a direct red card, the Betic youth player injured. Alberola Rojas did not point it out in the first instance and it had to be Trujillo Suárez, VAR referee, who notified him and after passing through the monitor it was clear to him.

In the final stretchthe two teams looked for the rival goal with more heart than success and Betis was about to have a reward with a clearance from the center of the field that was poisoned and was about to surprise Greif, but the Slovakian blocked it on the line. The scare of the match came from Isco and the Mallorcan goalkeeper in a clash that ultimately came to nothing and both were able to finish the match.

When the match was dying, the decisive play arrived. A good rise on the wing by Ortiz who gives a perfect pass to Bakambú who connects an unappealable header for Greif. Betis won in the last breath and extended Mallorca’s horribilis month.
