Surprisingly, Sparta Prague managed to beat Real Betis at home with a narrow score of 1-0. I don't understand why Real Betis lost this match even though they were one step away from locking in victory as group C winners. However, it doesn't seem to be going well and this result means that Real Betis will still fight in the last match before determining their chances of qualifying for the round of 16. big European league. On the other hand, this result means that Sparta Prague still has the opportunity to qualify for the next round in the remaining match against Aris.
I think Real Betis already tried their best to win the match but they were just unlucky today. They dominated the match, they won the ball possessions and made 11 shots. Unfortunately, they failed to score goals until the end of the match. Well, actually this match is quite crucial for Real Betis, their are secure to qualify for the next round if they won this match. Unfortunately, they were defeated, so they must win in the last match to qualify for the next round.
Indeed, Sparta Prague still has the chance to qualify if they can win the final match against Aris Limassol. But it can happen if Real Betis can be defeated by Rangers in the next match and Rangers is defeated by Aris in today match.
Another match from Group C will soon take place between Rangers vs Aris and if Rangers can win then they will top the group C standings and their opportunities are even more open after Real Betis' defeat.
The match has been started. Aris is leading with 1 goal in the first half. It is quite surprising if Rangers will lose points in this match. Rangers misses the chance to lead group C if they fail to get 3 points today.
