Clash of two lower mid-table teams at a freezing Iberostar stadium. Early efforts on goal by Mallorca were rewarded when a foul by Mario led to a direct free-kick from which Castro netted. Mallorca maintained dominance into the second period, Ramis having a header from a corner saved on 61 minutes and Ogunjimi coming on for Hemed to try to give more edge up-front. Betis defender Mario saw red for a second yellow offence with quarter of an hour left, and then so did Mallorca's Ramis. And to cap it all, a totally unnecessary lack of discipline by Victor saw him red-carded as well for a foul and then dissent. Assertive performance by Mallorca but they should have made it easier for themselves. A valuable three points.
