The last time Real Betis was in the cup final ended in a win, in 2004/5. This season the team from Sevilla will have the opportunity to win this title for the third time in history because it will participate in its fifth final ever. Betis finished tonight (Thursday) with a 1: 1 home draw against Rayo Vallecano and completed a 2: 3 victory in the sum of the two meetings.
Betis will compete for its first title since 2004/5 (if you do not consider the second division championship) against Valencia on April 23 at La Cartoua Stadium in Sevilla. The Bats will try to win the trophy there for the ninth time ever and the second in four years after doing so in 2018/19.
Baba gave Rayo Vallecano the lead in the 80th minute with a huge free kick to the connections from close to 30 meters and set up 0: 1 and 2: 2 in total. Burja Iglesias managed to balance in the 92nd minute with quite a bit of luck when a defensive player’s dismissal reached his foot and from there went inside, Betis in the final.
