"What can I say? Pablo Fornals said, really nice. Mostly, in truth, it hadn't been, but it was in the moment when he had illuminated everything, taking Batista Mendy, Cesar Azpilicueta and Kike Salas out for a walk first this way, then that and it was now, the 144th Seville derby finally ending 20 minutes behind schedule and with a Real Betis win."
"On a Sunday afternoon when the game was stopped after objects were thrown, the two teams taken off for 15 minutes and brought back out again for just two more, Betis won a Sevilla derby at the Sanchez-Pizjuan for the first time since that Kings Night 5-3 in 2018. It was also the first time they ever had with Manuel Pellegrini in charge."
Pablo Fornals scored an outrageous opening goal that set up a 2-0 victory for Real Betis in the 144th Seville derby at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan. Celebrations erupted among hundreds of travelling supporters as Antony, absent due to suspension while his teammate was sidelined by injury, joined in rejoicing after the final whistle. The match was halted when objects were thrown, with both teams taken off for 15 minutes before returning for two more. The win was Betis's first derby victory at the Sanchez-Pizjuan since 2018 and the first such triumph under Manuel Pellegrini, who extended his contract by two years at 72.
