Real Madrid's two players Gareth Bale, Toni Kroos and Thibaut Courtois are all sitting on the bench. Betis forward Loren Moron put the visitors in the forefront in the 61st minute, completing a radical counterattack by hitting the ball at close range. .

The former Madrid striker, Jese Rodriguez, sealed the victory of Betis, who finished the season 10th overall, but won victories on the outside at Camp Nou and Santiago Bernabeu, drawing advantage of the net not scored at the 75th.

Madrid finished the campaign in third place with 68 points, its lowest total since the 2001/02 season, while losing 12 league games for the first time since the 1998/99 season.

They finished eight points behind Atletico Madrid and are 18 points behind champion Barcelona, ​​who will visit Eibar later on Sunday.

"We started the season badly and we ended it badly," Madrid defender Marcelo said. "We did not want this season to be like that, we wanted to be in the final for the trophies, it was a difficult season, one of the most difficult on a personal level, we tried to sort things out, but now we're just next season. "

Madrid's top scorer, Karim Benzema, opened the scoring following another bad pass.

Betis dominated the match and would have scored earlier if Keylor Navas had not been saved by impressive saves. The audience gave him an enthusiastic welcome at what we thought was his last game for the club.

According to Spanish media, Bale will not be at the club next season, but the Wales striker, left out of the loss to Real Sociedad last week, has not had the opportunity to qualify for the finals at Bernabeu.

Bale was seen grinning as he sat on the bench when his team was 2-0 down and when the final whistle arrived he walked straight into the tunnel without recognizing the fans.
