Giovanni Lo Celso was again the MVP of the match played by Real Betis and scorer of the 1-0 against Mallorca, a rare goal from outside the area that ultimately served little purpose, as the Balearic Islands took the three points in stoppage time. “We are very angry with the result. We did not deserve to lose, especially in this way. It was a huge sacrifice against a very tough rival. We left with a lot of anger about the defeat,” the Argentine said on the Movistar+ microphone just after of the game.
The Argentine stressed that “we knew they were doing well in set pieces. In the last corner they found the goal. Before we had chances to win the game. We know the strength of an opponent who cut ball and spaced well. We found situations and scored another goal.”
García Verdura, with a very difficult referee, showed Lo Celso an incredible direct red card, which was later annulled after reviewing the VAR: “I was surprised because he took it early, even the Mallorca player said it was not a red card. He was calm, “VAR returned it.”
Regarding the goal scored, Lo Celso commented that “the goal was of little or no use today. There are good goals and we need to move forward. “Time to turn the page, on Thursday we have a new game.”
