A goal from Lo Celso, Betis’s best footballer, gave the Andalusian team the victory against Alavés, who never surrendered, but had very little gunpowder. In this way, the Argentine was the protagonist of the fifth official party in this enclosure, where he will be at least two seasons for the works of the new Benito Villamarín. Betis won the Contra, with a Alavés with a good ball that was saved from the second goal thanks to Sivera’s interventions. The goalkeeper allowed the Basque team to arrive with tie options until the end of the crash. However, he did not create any danger of danger and even Bakambu sent a ball to the crossbar in the length.

There is nothing that can with the fans of Betis, forced to exile at the Sevilla less Sevillian stadium, that enclosure of the Cartuja that always lived behind the city’s back and that will force Bético to an important sacrifice. Thousands and thousands of fans went to the island of La Cartuja, squeezed between the two margins of the Guadalquivir River already hardly occupying their seat to contemplate the league premiere of their team. Verdiblanco exile caused the occasional chaos on arrival, but many came in advance and the stadium had a great appearance at the beginning of the crash. Cartuja is a magnificent field inside, but its accesses leave much to be desired. An endemic problem of difficult solution for more than the authorities try, which invest and invest, with good judgment, in public transport. Access roads, such as SE-20, were collapsed two hours before the start of the match.
From exile, without very hot heat, after a devastating August in Seville, he went to football. A Betis Mandón, with black calzons, who grabbed the Celso as his best argument. And not only for his silk football, but also for his scoring capacity. At 16 minutes, the Argentine spliced within the area and made 1-0. As if it were a center striker. Betis had been saved with a good intervention by Pau López after three minutes and now sent on the scoreboard. Strong on the right, with Bellerín and Ruibal very connected, the Andalusian team found the path of the rival field with some ease. But the Betic team also has its problems. It is a group that touches very well, but that suffers a barbarity without ball because they have no players to recover. That is why the Alavés, touch to touch, took the ball, although with little danger. , and the cucho was close to doing 2-0 after a good Ruibal pass. The Alavés sent without danger and Betis dominated on the scoreboard, sustained by the details of Lo Celso, the differential player of the game.
Alavés control was accentuated in the second half. At the same time, and as if the script of the game was repeated, it was Betis that had the best occasions. Sivera appeared decisively to keep his team in the game in two fantastic interventions against Bellerín and, above all, Pablo García. The canterano has a cannon on his left leg. With the 1-0 and a lot of emotion it reached the end with the Betic triumph. The fans encouraged until the end and lived the victory as if it were an authentic final. The first of the Cartuja, was won by Betis.
“The atmosphere has been incredible. It is a stadium of late, mythical. The best way to release it was to win it. It feels a lot to people. Little by little we will work better. Villamarín is very special,” said Lo Celso. “It is important to leave the door to zero. With Elche we did not convert and they found the goal. You have to suffer to win,” said the best footballer of the match.
