Isco leads Betis to defeat Real Madrid in La Liga (Video)

Real Madrid suffered another defeat in the Spanish League, this time at the hands of Real Betis after losing 2-1 in the 26th round of La Liga.

The start of the match at the Benito Villamarín Stadium was promising for the Merengue, as Brahim Diaz scored the lead early in the ninth minute.

But Isco’s intervention made it a bad night for his former team, starting with his creation of the equalizer from a perfect corner that Cardoso faced with his head and put it in the net of Thibaut Courtois.


In the second half, Betis won a penalty kick, which Isco successfully shot to the right of Courtois, and all attempts by the royal club to return the result failed.


This is the second time in the 21st century that Betis have managed to beat Real Madrid after falling behind, the first time being in February 2008.

With this defeat, Real Madrid’s tally has froze at 54 points, and it is possible that they will drop to third place if Atletico Madrid win against Athletic Bilbao.

If Barcelona manage to win against Real Sociedad, the difference between them will be 3 points in favor of the Catalan club with 12 rounds remaining.
