Portuguese goalkeeper Rui Silva was Real Betis’ best player in San Mamés and with seven saves, most of them decisive, he prevented Athletic from first taking the lead and then getting the score back, which ended in a draw (1-1) after Fornals overtook Betis at the start of the second half.
“It was a very difficult game, they came out very strong and in the first half it was difficult for us, we did strange things and they had a lot of chances. However, after the break we improved and took the lead, although they eventually tied. We have to give value to the 1-1 because it is very difficult to play here,” the Betic goalkeeper summarized before the DAZN cameras after the clash.
Rui Silva was the star of Betis and made a total of seven saves, many of them to prevent very clear scoring chances: “I’m happy because I did my job and I always try to help the team. Almost everything went well, although in the end we didn’t win. The point must be appreciated, playing in San Mamés is very difficult because they are very intense.
Rui Silva sent a message to those affected by the flood: “Today it is difficult to play football in what we are experiencing and from here I want to send a lot of encouragement to all the people of Valencia who are suffering a lot from the flood. .”
