However, in the 75th minute, Valencia equalized thanks to Rafa Mir. 1-1 was also the final score of the match. Betis ended the La Liga season with 60 points, ranking 6th. Valencia had 46 points, ranking 12th overall.
As for Antony, he scored his 5th goal in La Liga this season. In all competitions, the winger born in 2000 contributed to 14 goals (9 goals, 5 assists), an impressive number for a player who has only played for Betis for 4 months.
This is not the first time Antony has made the audience burst into tears with impressive goals with his left foot. Previously, he created many sublime moments when facing Espanyol, Gent, Fiorentina, …
Sharing after the match, Antony said: “At Betis, I feel happy in every moment, even in my dreams. I don’t know what the future will be like, but I always want to stay at this club. The fans here are wonderful”.

If there are no unusual developments in the summer transfer window, this will be Antony’s last match with Betis in La Liga. After the end of his loan contract, Betis really wants to buy him but it is difficult to meet the price offered by MU.
