It is not easy for the Betis to adapt itself to the silver category. With the institutional crisis without visible exit and a staff that plays with the double-edged weapon of being composed practically in its entirety with players “of the first”, the initial return of the championship was disappointing and the trainer Tapia paid the broken plates of a team whom it was necessary only to see playing to understand that it needed a good restructuring, but especially, a clear game philosophy.

And the fact is that for the Andalusian fan it has been exasperating in some parties to hope that the Betis should show a definite game, which they all play to one without hoping that individualities as Sergio García or Emaná should take all the responsibility. With the arrival of Víctor Fernández, at least the team bets for a clear philosophy, and the fact is that of all it is known that the Aragonese trainer likes the fluid and offensive game. In Cordova it has demonstrated that he bets for a Betis that assumes his applicant’s roll to the ascent, exploiting to the maximum the best technical virtues of every soccer player.

We could have seen such beginning today before the Cordova, especially in the first part of the party. Better passes, better movements, more fluid game, less congestion with displacements to the bands and the best face of the player named to mark differences in the category, the native of Cameroon Emana newly recovered from the Cup Africa. The native of Cameroon marked a big party replete both with technical twinkles and with work, and work of Jonathan Pereira gave the assistance of the only one so much of the party, in his first party as starter.

In the second part the domain spent to the local edict, due to the pressure of the scoreboard in against, the readjustments of the rest and especially after the just expulsion of David Rivas who left the Betis with ten players during the last twenty minutes. Again there appeared the importance of having a definite games option: without any type of complex, Víctor demanded from his players any more defensive effort and that the lines were always more together.

The Andalusian defensive adjustment forced the forwards of the Cordova to pull from a distance. In spite of everything, the clearest occasions for the places would come, but they came across with inspired Goitia. The goalkeeper turned into the man of the party in this second half.

The categóría is very treacherous and any thing is possible up to end of period, but it is of hoping that the Betis, now that he knows better what it plays, should be one of the most visible alternatives for the ascent.
