For the 37th day of La Liga, FC Barcelona hosted Betis at Camp Nou at 9 p.m. Crowned champions of Spain seven days ago, the Catalans approached this meeting without major challenges. After a defeat against Alavés (0-1), the objective was to secure at home against an Andalusian team in good form. Indeed, the Sevillians had two wins and a draw, scoring regularly (7 goals in three matches). 5th before kick-off, Antony’s teammates were also guaranteed to compete in the C1 next season.
However, facing a hungry Azulgrana eleven, the visitors were unable to do anything in the first half. Despite a goal from Abde, disallowed for offside before the half-hour mark, it was a free kick from Raphinha which broke the deadlock. Outside the area, the 29-year-old Brazilian sent a superb strike (1-0, 28th). After the break, the Seleçao player was lucky. Thanks to a loss of ball, he scored a double (2-0, 62nd). Isco reduced the gap from the penalty spot (2-1, 69th), before João Cancelo also took part in the Catalan celebration (3-1, 74th). Hansi Flick is a little more on the roof of La Liga, the Andalusians are stagnating in 5th place.
