Betis beat FC Porto 3-2 in the Champions League. The official scoreline is the source of truth for a five-goal game whose scorers could not be confirmed. Betis took the win, and Porto scored twice in defeat.

Match Summary

The match ended 3-2 to the home side after a Champions League night that cannot be told as a timed scoring narrative. Verified events sit mainly in the second half, when the referee's book filled and play grew more fractured.

In the 57th minute both teams were cautioned. Andre Silva received a yellow card for FC Porto, and Nelson Deossa was booked for Betis. Another yellow card in that same minute underlined a messy spell in which fouls broke up play on both sides.

Alan Varela was shown a yellow card for Porto in the 73rd minute. A Betis player was booked in the 77th minute, with no name attached to that caution. Santiago Gimenez went into the book for Porto in the 86th minute. In the 90+3 minute Ángel Ortiz was cautioned for Betis as stoppage time ran down. None of those cards changed the official result. Betis had the 3-2 win when the whistle went.

Key Moments

Betis won 3-2 and created the heavier share of chances, yet Porto still scored twice, which is why the night stayed tight on the board.

The cluster of yellow cards in the 57th minute then changed the feel of the second half. Silva and Deossa were among those booked, and both sides had to choose their challenges more carefully. A red card never arrived, so the numerical balance never shifted.

Late cautions for Varela, Gimenez, and Ortiz showed a match that stayed physical into the dying minutes. In a one-goal Champions League result, those fouls from the 73rd minute onward carried extra weight even without a verified list of when the five goals arrived.

The numbers backed Betis without describing a rout. The home side attempted 17 shots to Porto's 11 and put 7 on target compared with 5. Expected goals were 1.59 for Betis and 0.75 for Porto. Corners sat at 5 for Betis and 1 for Porto. Yellow cards finished 4 for Betis and 3 for Porto, and neither team received a red card.
