Real Betis remains at the top of the League table after a resounding 3‑0 victory over Osasuna in La Cartuja. At the center of the action was captain Isco Alarcón, who scored the first two goals of the game and was named MVP of the match. The 32-year-old stressed the importance of controlling the match after 3‑0 and learning from the disconnections that occurred after the second half, stating that “those disconnections cannot be repeated.”
Isco, who has found his playing rhythm again, expressed his enthusiasm for the season and the need to continue improving. “I continue working with great enthusiasm, with a great desire to improve and help the team,” he commented before adding that the campaign “is a very exciting season.” He also explained his second goal, which came after a series of rebounds in the area. “I haven't seen it, but after a lot of rebounds, I left with faith, it fell and I scored it,” he said, underlining the importance of that goal in securing the victory against an Osasuna team that had been pressing intensely.
The highlight of the match was the debut of Morante in the League, who scored his first goal for the club. Isco praised the young forward, describing him as “a footballer who has everything: he is young, he has a lot of projection, quality and a great shot.” The captain added that Morante is “in the perfect club to grow in the best possible way” and that the team must take care of him so that “he gives us a lot this season.”
With this victory, Betis remains on the podium of the competition, consolidating itself as one of the strongest contenders in the league. Isco's performance, combined with the arrival of players like Morante, reinforces the team's confidence in achieving its short and long-term goals.
The next step for Betis will be to maintain the rhythm and discipline shown in this victory, while preparing for the next matches of the season. The combination of experience and youth, represented by Isco and Morante, promises to continue being a key factor in the search for qualification for European competitions.
