He Betisbrand new semifinalist of the Conference Leaguea comfortable triumph in Montilivi achieved Monday (1-3) to place at a point in Villarreal and the fifth position, at the expense of and Girona Free Free Fall and that will suffer so as not to descend.
Manuel Pellegrini's team, with up to seven novelties regarding Thursday's game in Poland, resolved the match in the first half with Three goals from the American Johnny Cardoso, Brazilian Antony Dos Santos and Isco Alarcón To leave behind the league defeat against Villarreal.
Míchel Sánchez's team linked the Tenth game without winning and the fourth defeat And his dramatic free fall continues: to debut in the Champions League to be the second worst team in the second round in LaLiga EA Sports, only above Valladolid, and become a candidate for the descent. His last victory was on February 3.
The Catalan painting He has barely achieved six points of 39 possible in this second round And it already has Three margin points about Alavés and the red zone. Thursday will face a final in Leganés.
Girona faced the game with the imperative need to end its hemorrhage, but lives blocked by fear and its lousy game and results dynamics and in the first five minutes it was unable to leave its half of the field.
Betis jumped to green with more ambition and intensity. Cornered his rival and needed six minutes to translate your domain into goal: Isco served a corner and Johnny Cardoso rose between the defense to mark head and delve into the Girona wound.
The rojiblanco team tried to wake up with some action by the Ukrainian Viktor Tsygankov or some ride from the Dutch Arnautés Danout Danout, but continues to suffer his lack of chronic goal and also played without a striker.
Abel Ruiz It appears and disappears from the calls for discomfort without explanation. Míchel only tells the Uruguayan Cristhian Stuani as revulsive for its 38 years. He has already stopped having the Macedonio Bojan Miovski.
To replace the Ukrainian Artem Dovbyk, top scorer of the competition last season, Girona signed a normacedonium ram of Aberdeen Scottish, but Miovski He has not fit either as the vast majority of new faces have done. Stays the ghost of the 2018-2019 course decrease.
Girona was able to score through the Colombian Yaser Asprilla after a recovery by Brazilian Arthur Melo, but Adrián San Miguel signed a saving stop In one against one. His possession was useless again.
Betis played comfortable, as if he knew that local defense, so weak, would provide opportunities. And sentenced the game before the break: In 39 Antony finished off a center of the Frenchman Romain Perraud and in the 42 ISCO headed a pass from the Moroccan Ez Abde. They finished off. Helied Montilivi.
The visiting verticality condemned and undressed Girona, so harmless, and the faces of the players and Míchel were a poem. The fans fired the first part with A loud whistle that could not cover Montilivi's megaphony.
Míchel turned to Portu's pride, extreme, at the break to place it as a tip, with Miovski and Stuani on the bench, but but He was about to fall on 0-4.
Paulo Gazzaniga diverted a hard shot by Ez Abde and then the Moroccan end headed for a corner alone on the front of the small area, in the penultimate sample of fragility of Girona. The Argentine goalkeeper also saved Girona in a hand in hand with Antony and at the subsequent shot of the Colombian 'Cucho' Hernández.
Meanwhile Montilivi was despair again with A Danjuma shot to the clouds On one occasion Franca and whistled to Asprilla again. And sang a symptomatic song: 'Girona, pour eggs'.
Stuani appeared in the 85th minute to make up the result and give more reasons to all who claim to be the holder. He is the top scorer of the team in LaLiga EA Sports with seven goals in a single ownership.
Betis was able to dedicate itself to adjust loads and distribute minutes and conquered a victory, the tenth in the last 14 games against Girona, which can bring him closer to the dream of the Champions League.
