Only the second match of the La Liga season and Atletico Madrid disappoints with their performance. Real Betis and Atletico could not create powerful chances that would have put them ahead in the entire match. While Seville's scorching weather made things difficult for the two sides the match ended with just one shot on target. At the Benito Villamarín Stadium, Betis were first to dominate the game and stood firm in the second half against Atletico’s efforts to score first.
Abner, Ayoze Perez, and Aitor Ruibal all enjoyed a good chance to score but all their efforts went wide. Atletico tried to add momentum with the addition of 20-year-old Pablo Barrios but failed to move the score ahead. The match saw a good performance by Antoine Griezmann and substitutes Alvaro Morata and Samuel Lino Betis’ disciplined defence did not offer them many chances. Both the teams are now level with Barcelona and Girona on the table with four points.
