Ever since the coaches announced their starting lineups was evident that both were strongly for the win, as in the case of Juan Merino I had two strikers like Jorge Molina born and striker Ruben Castro.
Paco Jemez, also true to his style of play, relied on the lead in the Venezuelan Nicolas Fedor 'Miku', whom the Sevilla was presented with five goals achieved in the last five days, with the company of Francisco Medina 'Piti' which since rejoining the team in January Vallecano Granada from the owner he had not left.
Lightning showed desire to extend the streak of six games without losing and having scored in the last eight games and soon seven minutes, Adrian Embarba took advantage of indecision in the local defense to finish off a ball finally swerved the crossbar.
It was a game of alternating and arrivals on either area, although that was hit first with an accurate header Betis canary Ruben Castro, who opened the scoring before the completion of the quarter hour.
Local much did nothing but redouble efforts attackers visitors but also prompted the Betis were ordered more in containing and found spaces.
In one of these counterattacks a corner forced and Ruben Castro , attentive at the far post after prolonging Jorge Molina and head, scored his second and twelfth in so far this championship, somewhat that it was protested by Ray players for possible offside.
That cost 2-0 reply by the team of Jemez, imprecise with the ball and without having it clear to create problems for the goal Antonio Adam.
It was near the third before the break Betis because verdiblancos focused and played with the young Belgian Charly fast, vertical Musonda and even claimed a penalty in one of its internees.
Mal put the situation to Ray for the second part, so his coach Jonathan Montiel brought by the Portuguese defender Ze Castro and Angolan strikerManucho Contreiras by Miku , who finished injured in the first half.
The changes could not be more effective as Manucho scored twice in the first six minutes of the restart and managed to even the score, which he did last time when Vallecas drew against Sevilla after an adverse 0-2.
Merino then also moved the bench and made his debut at one of the winter signings, Brazilian striker Leandro Damiao, seeing that the opponent had stayed with a line of three defenders.
Now it was Betis who went out with two goals scored in a match that became more jumbled and which Jemez remounted a line of four defenders with the entrance to center field exbético Antonio Amaya.
So he entered the last quarter of an hour, in which the Lightning gave good draw and verdiblancos sought a new both eager and shot the bar included Dani Ceballos in prolongation of the crash was not enough to win.
