Betis also came up short against this unstoppable Barça side, which has won all 12 official matches it has played. As expected, it was a game with everything in it, pitting two teams in top form against each other. High tension, plenty of goals, plenty of controversy, and a red card that ultimately decided the match in Flick’s team’s favor. Betis fans are particularly upset about a goal by Lo Celso that was disallowed—which would have tied the score at 2-2—due to a handball that occurred well before the goal was scored. Lamine once again made the difference, though he left La Cartuja to boos after playing a key role in Facundo Bernal’s ejection.
