90+2' Final whistle sounds! A 2-0 win for Real Betis.
89' Ruben Perez has been booked for a foul on Perez.
88' Mario collects a second yellow card for aiming a kick at Xabi Prieto. He is off the park.- 87' Nelson earns a free-kick after being fouled by Alberton De La Bella. This match all over bar the shouting.
- 85' Estrada flicks a cross into the middle, but Betis deal with the danger.
