Real Betis vs Real Oviedo

Real Betis made light work of struggling Real Oviedo at La Cartuja, cruising to a 3-0 win that underlined the vast gulf between the two sides. A clinical brace from Cucho Hernández was the highlight of a comfortable Sunday afternoon. Hernández broke the deadlock on 27 minutes, tucking home after a deflected Pablo Fornals cross. Abde Ezzalzouli doubled the lead on the stroke of half-time, converting an Antony delivery. Federico Viñas thought he had pulled one back early in the second half, only for VAR to rule him marginally offside. Hernández then sealed it on 58 minutes, flicking an Ezzalzouli cross in off the post for his tenth LaLiga goal of the season. The victory keeps Betis six points clear of sixth-placed Celta Vigo in the race for European football. For Oviedo — now eight points adrift of safety with just four matches remaining — relegation back to the second tier looks all but inevitable.
