Lex Moreno and Borja Iglesias cleverly threw in a throw-in that Sergio Canales converted to tie the score for Betis in the 17th minute. Iglesias, who leads Betis in goals scored with four, returned Moreno’s throw-in so that Canales could score at an angle.

The rest of the game, though, belonged to Madrid, who had a string of scoring opportunities while Betis was unable to pose another threat to Thibaut Courtois’ goal.

After Canales’ goal, Vinicius missed an opportunity to put his team back in the lead when he mishandled a pass from Rodrygo that he only needed to send Silva’s way. Then, Silva was in excellent form as he lunged to block a strong header by Aurelien Tchouameni.

But Rodrygo converted Madrid’s dominance into a second goal in the 65th when Silva failed to keep out his slick redirection of substitute Federico Valverde’s pass into the heart of the box.

Madrid will play Celtic on Tuesday in Glasgow to open up its title defence.
