Match Report: Home loss to Real Betis (0-3) | OneFootball

Valencia CF had a commanding start to the second half. Alas, William José made it 0-1 to Real Betis Balompié close to the hour mark at Mestalla.

José Bordalás made a double substitution over the hour mark bringing on Gonçalo Guedes and Maximiliano Gómez who replaced Bryan Gil and Thierry Correia respectively looking to get back on level terms.

Gonçalo Guedes came close to making an instant impact right off the bench, but his effort came off Germán Pezzella and the ball rolled across the face of goal and out of play.

Valencia CF kept on pushing for the equaliser with some link-up play between Jesús Vázquez, Maxi Gómez and Gonçalo Guedes which was scrambled away by Marc Bartra from the ground with little over 15 minutes of regulation time plus injury time left to go.

Former Valencia CF man, Sergio Canales, made it 0-2 to Real Betis Balompié and Borja Iglesias made it 0-3 in the 89th minute to complete the harsh scoreline at Mestalla.
