Real Betis and Utrecht faced each other in a valid duel for the fifth round of the Europa League on Thursday (27/11). The confrontation had a completely unusual start. After only 15 minutes had passed, the Spanish team was forced to make two unexpected substitutions after an unusual move among its players. Isco, who was returning to the field after recovering from injury, was hit by a cross from Sofiane Amrabat in a dispute over the ball.

The Spanish midfielder felt severe pain and received treatment immediately, but was unable to continue the match. The situation left the atmosphere tense and forced Betis to use one of the substitution periods very early.
Minutes later, Amrabat himself also began to feel pain, apparently as a result of the previous shock, which required his replacement. In less than a quarter of the match, Betis had already used two of the three periods allowed to make changes. On the field, Betis beat Utrecht 2-1.
