Match Analysis
Real Betis claimed a commanding 2-0 victory away to city rivals Sevilla in the 14th round of La Liga at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. The visitors, known as the Verdiblancos, asserted control through goals by Pablo Fornals in the 54th minute and Sergi Altimira in the 69th minute, securing a momentous derby result.
Sevilla’s supporters reacted furiously to their team’s ineffective performance, particularly after striker Isaac Romero received a straight red card in the 84th minute. Incensed fans proceeded to launch objects onto the pitch, prompting referee Jose Luis Munuera Montero to suspend the match and instruct players to head to the dressing rooms as the official protocol was enacted. For several minutes, players from both squads lingered on the field while officials left for the tunnel, ultimately complying with instructions after a brief standoff.

Incident Disrupts Closing Stages
The match remained interrupted for around 15 minutes while officials restored order. Once play resumed, there were no further notable incidents, and Betis confidently closed out the fixture. The two-goal advantage reflected the sustained dominance of the visitors throughout the contest.
Historical Context and Team Form
With this result, Betis achieved a second consecutive win over their cross-town rivals, a feat not managed by the club for approximately three decades in the fiercely contested Seville derby. Manuel Pellegrini’s side extended their unbeaten run to seven matches, underlining their recent consistency in La Liga.
By contrast, Sevilla continue to experience significant struggles, suffering five defeats in their last six league outings. The pressure intensifies on the home side as their form shows little sign of improvement.
Upcoming Fixtures
Both clubs will soon shift focus to the Copa del Rey, with upcoming midweek fixtures. Betis are set to host reigning champions Barcelona after this weekend, whereas Sevilla travel to face Valencia.
