Match Analysis

Real Betis ended their 2025 campaign in dominant style, overpowering Getafe 4-0 in front of their supporters during round 17 of La Liga. The Seville outfit asserted control early on, thanks to a well-placed header by Aitor Ruibal in the 16th minute. Ruibal doubled his tally minutes into the second half, capitalising on a rebound from the post after a shot by Antony to further the lead in the 49th minute.

Momentum remained firmly with Betis as they added a third just three minutes later. Antony delivered a deft one-touch pass that set Pablo Fornals through, and he finished the move clinically in the 52nd minute to make it 3-0. The scoring continued in the 60th minute when Cucho Hernandez reacted first to a goalkeeper’s rebound and converted from close range, notching Betis’ fourth of the evening.
