Real Madrid achieved their first victory of the season after converting the hosts of Betis by 3: 2 in their stadium.
After the draw a week ago, the champions doubted again, but their class still had a voice and they managed to reach the victory, although in important moments they also benefited from the VAR. The hosts recorded their first loss after 2 wins without conceding a goal.
The game began with a goal disallowed by Benzema, who scored with an aerial shot, but was in an irregular position. Ferlan Mendy then vaguely fired at the near corner, but Sevilla responded with a shot from Sanabria, which Courtois fired over the door.
However, the champions played better and took the lead in the 14th minute. Benzema burst into the goal and returned to Valverde, who kept his cool and gave his team the lead.
It followed a pass from Sergio Ramos, who shot badly from the area. Fekir missed the mark for the hosts with an experience of twenty meters. However, the hosts got better and made a course change in just 3 minutes.
In the 35th Aisa Mandy scored with a header after an excellent center from Canales to a corner. As the people of Sofia wondered what was going on, Fekir found the free William Carvalho, who again shot Courtois with a powerful shot and gave Betis a 2: 1 lead.
In the 41st minute, Sergio Ramos failed a new situation, this time unable to cope well with a header. The break came early for Sevilla, who, however, knew that the citizens of Sofia would pressure her and that is exactly what happened, as the guests drew quickly.
In the 48th minute Carvajal broke down the right and passed Benzema, and in his attempt to cross the pass, Emerson deflected towards his own goal to make it 2: 2. There was a shot off the crossbar by Karim.
That led to the 67th minute, when Betis were left with one less man. Emerson fouled Jovic, and after reviewing the situation, the referee ruled that it was a clear scoring opportunity and sent the defender off.
Sergio Ramos definitely didn’t have a day off after a direct free kick to put his team ahead, but Real’s pressure paid off in the 80th minute when the visitors were awarded a penalty. The VAR intervened to play with the hand of Bartra and Ramos did not fail to overtake Sofía.
This was crucial, because in the end Betis never got to anything special in front of the rival’s gate and Madrid achieved their first campaign victory.
