We have one more stop right now, similar to the one we had in the first half. The goal is to hydrate the players, since it is very hot in Spain. But the coaches take the opportunity to exchange that conversation with the players and adjust some details.
Now all the two teams have changed practically all the players, they have put reserves, youngsters, and we are still waiting for an improvement in the quality of the match.
A free-kick comes to nothing and the game remains scoreless in the second half. There is a little more than 20 minutes to go until the end of the game in Spain.
Real Betis has a dangerous free-kick to take on the edge of the box. Should he charge straight at goal, he has a good chance to open the scoring at this point.
The game loses a lot of rhythm and emotion with the many changes made by the coaches. Teams didn't start the second half with so much enthusiasm, and the game was very slow and weak at this moment.
Ruben Neves finishes a long way from outside the area, Robles drops into the corner to make the save and in the aftermath Wolves is caught offside. Beautiful arrival. The team seems to have woken up in the second half.
Wolves steal the ball from a wrong Betis exit and arrive again on the sides, this time on the right, cross into the area, but Edgar recovers and keeps possession.
Betis seeks to improve the physical form and wants an even better placement in La Liga, the team finished 6th and qualified for the Europa League in the last tournament.
Wolves, on the other hand, want to have a good season, since they were in the modest 13th place in the Premier League last season.
At 28 minutes, the referee stops the game for hydration. The weather is very hot in Spain and the sun is very high. Remember that in this match we do not have the presence of the video referee.
Raul Jimenez receives a speedy forward, comes face to face with the goalkeeper Robles, but the referee signals offside. On the replay it did not seem offside. The game continues goalless.
Wolves steal the ball in the back, but give it away free to the Betis team. Real Betis have more possession of the ball and arrive more easily in Wolverhampton's field of attack. Wolves are still finding themselves in the match and are starting to find the spaces down the sides.
João Moutinho takes a high free-kick, at the second post, Raul Jimenez rises higher than anyone and heads it over the goal. Out of the way. Good comeback from Wolves.
RUDDY SAVES! Betis gets a good arrival with Iglesias, Rodri tried to dribble and the ball was left to the striker, who shot, but stopped the English goalkeeper.
Wolves plays the wrong way, Betis steals the ball and Rodri receives it on the edge of the area, he tries a dribble to score and Saiss arrives strong to take it away.
Real Betis will wear their traditional green uniform with white stripes, while Wolverhampton will wear a predominantly white uniform with gold details. Teams on the field. The ball is about to start rolling.
All is right with the Wolves players for the match in a while. They are ready for a great display. We are looking forward to some good soccer this Saturday afternoon (24).
