Antony helps Betis fly high

In the early morning of April 25 (Hanoi time), Real Betis easily defeated Real Valladolid 5-1 in round 33 of La Liga 2024/25.

Antony has had quality performances in a Betis shirt.

Antony and Isco continue to be the inspiration for Betis' attack. The pair played aggressively and energetically, receiving SofaScore's ratings of 7.5 and 7.6 points respectively in this match. Isco scored one goal, while Antony had two passes that opened up opportunities leading to goals.

Real Betis entered the match determined to win 3 points to move up to 5th place, thereby securing a place in next season's Champions League according to new UEFA regulations. Right after the opening whistle, the home team attacked and quickly scored the opening goal in the 17th minute thanks to Jesus Rodriguez.

Valladolid were officially relegated, but still played with great effort. In the 30th minute, they demanded a penalty after Aznou fell in the penalty area, but the referee said no. However, just 11 minutes later, Chuki took advantage of goalkeeper Adrian's mistake to equalize 1-1.

In the second half, within just 2 minutes, from minute 64 to minute 66, Betis scored two goals thanks to Cucho Hernandez and Isco. Minute 84 and minute 90, Betis continued to score 2 more goals, closing out an impressive 5-1 victory.

After 33 rounds, Antony and his teammates won 54 points, 6 points behind 4th place Athletic Bilbao.

However, Betis' realistic goal is to maintain 5th place, along with a place in the Champions League. Currently, Betis is 2 points ahead of Villarreal but has played 1 more game than their opponent.

The team also has a chance to win glory on the continental stage. On April 18, Betis made history by reaching the semi-finals of a European Cup for the first time, winning 3-1 on aggregate against Jagiellonia.
