Points one after another for Betis in the return match with Dinamo Zagreb in the conference: above Bakambu scores, but it does not last long
There were almost no precedents returns European (strictly speaking, only up to Vejle Norwegian in. UEFA Cup 98/99) And in Zagreb This should have been no exception. Although there was faith in the expedition, the truth is that Real Betis said goodbye this Thursday to League Conferencehis last shootout on the continent, after another poor performance against Dynamo, which made the score 0:1 in the first match. Two shots on goal almost 97 minutes There are too few of them to leave a thread of hope, but at least a great goal from Bakambu By the end of the first half the draw was over. Then followed the usual curse with the wounding of men Manuel Pellegrinisince almost all of his students once passed through the infirmary, where the Congolese enters and can Mirandastill suspended until Sports V League. And they continue at it Abner, Bartra, Isco, Guido and Ayoze. Too much stress for a tired and poor quality group with visible seams.
This is how the Heliopolitans played
RUI SILVA: 4
The defense didn’t make it easy for them, although they hit very few shots: a goal, a shot on the crossbar and a save from Hoxha. He could have done more in the draw when he stayed between the sticks and the ball went through a small area.
AITOR RUIBAL: 5
What was expected from a successful striker: often superior to a striker of his profile (one of the cases ultimately cost him a draw), but sharp in attack, took advantage of the opponent’s first mistake to calmly and accurately help Bakamba to 0-1. This single success saves him from failure.
CHADHI RIYADH: 4
Perkovic’s terrible tackle hurt him from the start. He tried to put out his own and others’ fires, but seemed timid, probably due to the demands. After the restart, he started much more securely, fighting one-on-one with Petkovic… until he caught Ruibal at 1-1, where Hoxha beat him with ease.
MARK ROCA: 3
Noticeably awkward, despite Pellegrini leaving it in his natural profile. There are a lot of doubts when crossing each other and even making simple passes. It was too late when he had to intervene, remembering the Rangers day.
MIRANDA: 3
Kaneko drove him crazy just like in the first match, easily catching the back in a draw. Unexpectedly inaccurate centers, all deviated greatly.
JOHNNY: 4
From smaller to larger it took time to carb. Far above Baturina, the brains of Dynamo, and with little help from Carvalho, he ended up infecting the others in his worst game against Betis.
WILLIAM CARVALHO: 3
Slow and not very dedicated to subtraction, he was slow to show his quality in some deep balls, but did not improve almost any game.
ASSAN DIAO: 4
He fought with everyone and resisted Perkovic’s harshness. By his own will, he lacked composure when shooting (he dares little now) or helping.
FEKIR: 4
He was very carefully guarded, and it was difficult for him to exercise his judgment. Tired and bored, he felt disgusted with the game, which he never managed to pick up.
EZ ABDE: 4
The most active in his team’s attack in the first half, with a diagonal that caused damage, although overall it ended poorly. He lost countless balls by abusing his individualism.
BAKAMBU: 7
Having been beaten at the start, he played with skill and skill when the score was 0-1, finishing with a backheel at the near post. During the break, due to some discomfort, he remained on the bench, although he was the first to complete his job.
WILLIAN JOSE: 3
He missed an easy shot straight out of the gate and contributed very little to say the least.
BELLERIN: 4
He came to control Hoxha, the assister at 1-1, and Aitor Ruibal to be the winger in the final half hour. He took a penalty, which VAR overturned when it appeared he had touched the ball before Hoxha, although he offered no calm or overflow either.
RODRY: 3
Another game in the trash, without successful dribbles and attacks. He served the centers without giving importance or precision to the area.
PLEGUESUELO: sc
He struck and took down Miranda on the pipe. He put effort into this.
MANUEL PELLEGRINI: 5
He had practically no options to freshen up the team, and he again improvised with Mark Roca in the position of central defender. Given the fusion of two left-handers, he decided to move Chadi Riad, the only one born in his “kind”, to the right profile. The Chilean sacrificed possession (Rodri) to gain more speed on the outside with Abde and Assane. And he trusted the international experience of Bakambu, who responded immediately. But looking at the bench, it was enough to make me cry. His only responsibility, other than not getting his team to wake up and show intensity in the first leg, was to make the UEFA list, although with so many injuries it was a lottery.
