What happened
Having taken a first-leg advantage with a 2-0 win at Santiago Bernabeu, Real Madrid were favourites to win this clash, despite their topsy-turvy form.
When they scored inside the first ten minutes through Brahim Diaz, Los Blancos threatened to blow their hosts away, as they seemed set for a comfortable victory which would see them return top of the league.
However, Betis rose themselves, equalising through a bullet Johnny Cardoso header before former Merengues star Isco scored the winner from the spot.
What Ancelotti said
Following the defeat, Carlo did not mince words, telling reporters his side deserved to lose, given how poorly they played.
“We deserved to lose; we didn’t play at our level,” Carlo said. “If we play like this against Atlético Madrid, we will not win.”
Los Merengues play their crosstown rivals Atletico Madrid in midweek’s Champions League round of 16 clash, and Ancelotti worries that they will lose.
