Real Betis vs Real Madrid CF

Real Betis denied Real Madrid a vital three points at La Cartuja, with Héctor Bellerín's last-gasp strike earning the hosts a dramatic 1-1 draw. Vinicius Jr. broke the deadlock in the 17th minute, pouncing on a rebound after Álvaro Valles couldn't hold Federico Valverde's powerful effort. Real Madrid looked comfortable but squandered chances to kill the game — Kylian Mbappé had a goal disallowed for offside — while Andriy Lunin was equally busy at the other end, keeping Betis in it with a string of crucial saves. The equaliser came in the 90+3', when a Ferland Mendy error left Bellerín free to drive a low shot into the net, sending La Cartuja into raptures. The draw is a hammer blow to Real Madrid's title aspirations — Barcelona can now move 11 points clear at the top, all but sealing the championship. For Betis, it was a richly deserved reward for relentless second-half pressure.
