Troy Parrott gave Real Betis a 1-0 win over Real Madrid

Troy Parrott's single goal saw Real Betis beat Real Madrid 1-0 in the fourth week of the Spanish League at the de La Cartuja Stadium.
Parrott became the hero in Real Betis' victory over Real Madrid after scoring a goal when the match entered the 81st minute, according to La Liga records.

The victory moved Real Betis up to third in the La Liga standings with nine points from three matches, trailing only second-placed Real Madrid on goal difference.

Madrid took the initiative to attack first and threatened with a shot from Dean Huijsen, but it was thwarted by Betis goalkeeper Alvaro Valles.

It was Vinicius Junior's turn to create a chance for Madrid, but his shot hit the left post of the Betis goal.

Betis had a chance to turn things around and threaten with a long-range shot from Antony, but the ball was saved by Madrid goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois.

In the remainder of the first half, Madrid pressed Betis's defense more frequently, but the score remained goalless until halftime.

Entering the second half, Madrid first created a chance through Kylian Mbappe, but the shot was saved by Valles.

Betis broke the deadlock in the 81st minute after striker Troy Parrott pounced on a loose ball inside Madrid's penalty box to make it 1-0.

Madrid responded and Carlos Espi managed to find the back of the net after receiving a pass from Vinicius Junior, but the goal was disallowed by the referee for offside after a VAR review.

Los Blancos had a chance to equalize after being awarded a penalty by the referee for a foul by Betis center-back Natan in the penalty area.

The golden opportunity failed to be maximized into an equalizer after Madrid's penalty taker Kylian Mbappe's shot was saved by Valles in the 90+4 minute.

In the remaining time, Madrid continued to try to at least equalize, but until the match ended, the score remained 1-0 for Betis' victory.
