Sports Desk- The match between Grita Granada and Real Betis took place 2–2 on Monday in La Liga. A stoppage time strike from Roberto Soldado helped a gritty Granada hold Real Betis 2-2 at home in a thrilling La Liga encounter at the Benito Villamarin Stadium.

Former Tottenham Hotspur striker Soldado volleyed home a corner which landed kindly for him at the far post after an 85th-minute penalty from Sergio Canales and an 88th-minute effort by Cristian Tello had turned the match on its head.

Fernandez fired Granada ahead when he swept the ball home from eight metres to round off a superb fast break, with Ramon Azeez releasing Antonio Puertas who squared the ball to the striker from the left flank.
