The leadership of Betis changed ownership and was provisionally seized by Getafe, which ended the Sevillian team (3-0) to the rhythm of Colombian “Cucho” Hernández, key man in a clash in which a double by Ángel and Marc Cucurella’s great goal gave the azulón team three points.
Cucho put the pause his team needed to draw the best version of José Bordalás’s men, who increasingly resemble the group that dazzled before the start of the pandemic. They have already scared away the post-confinement ghost and are once again fearsome.
His victim, Betis, suffered the blue gale during an excellent first half that ended any option for Pellegrini’s team to score at the Coliseum.
The Betic players did not stop seeing blue shadows for 45 minutes. The pressure to which they were subjected in all parts of the field left a team without arguments that jumped from the start without Joaquín, who was rested by his coach and was replaced by Juanmi on the right wing.
Getafe also came out with a novelty that would be decisive together with the performance of “Cucho”: Ángel. The blue striker is a true goalkeeper. Always take advantage of their minutes. Especially when he is a substitute. He had the pending debt to shine when he started and, against Betis, he did.
Part of the fault was the “Cucho”, who moved wonderfully between the lines to open gaps and assist his teammates. One of those movements served to open the scoreboard.
El Cucho, with a beautiful head pass from his back to Nyom, allowed the Frenchman to assist Ángel to open the scoring with a semi-Chilean who had to review the VAR for possible offside. It was not, Álex Moreno broke it, and Getafe went ahead with justice.
Betis, suffocated by the pressure, barely accumulated two chances with a distant shot from Marc Bartra and with a free kick from Canales on the brink of halftime that saved Soria with a good save. He did not have any other and, although Getafe only had a couple more options, they took advantage of them.
Cucurella first, with a right hand from outside the area assisted by “Cucho”. And secondly, Ángel, on the edge of halftime, after taking advantage of a heads up after another assist, of course, from “Cucho”, the great protagonist of the game despite not scoring. His was the merit of almost all the success of the
Getafe, who with the signing of the Colombian forward has found a piece that contributes something different to what it almost always offers.
Now, physical effort and direct football have a break point with Cucho. His departure in the middle of the second half gave a break to the Betis defense, which could not do anything to overcome the duel either.
His rival, at half throttle, managed the advantage of the first 45 minutes well and left with the lead under his arm. “Cucho” was to blame and Ángel and Cucurella took the glory.
