Madrid had won three from three. Then a rebound off Courtois, a bicycle kick wiped off, and a stoppage-time penalty that never found the net. The night flipped in ten brutal minutes.
Betis 1-0 Real Madrid. Friday 4 September 2026 at Estadio de La Cartuja. Scoreless at the break, decided after the 81st minute when substitute Troy Parrott rammed in a rebound and Álvaro Valles later saved Kylian Mbappé from the spot.
Key Moments
Parrott came on in the 68th minute for Cucho Hernández. Thirteen minutes later Nelson Deossa met a corner with a header. Thibaut Courtois made the first save. The Irish forward was first to the loose ball and smashed it into the roof of the net — his first Betis goal, against the coach he once knew at Tottenham.
Mbappé rattled the bar. Carlos Espí then met a Vinícius Júnior cross with an overhead kick in the 87th minute; VAR ruled offside in the build-up. Deep in added time Natan brought Vinícius down. Mbappé took the penalty. Valles saved it. Officials checked for encroachment and did not order a retake.

Why it matters
José Mourinho's second Madrid spell has its first league defeat. Catalog standings after Round 4: Barcelona first on 9 points from three games; Real Madrid second on 9 from four (3W-1L); Betis third on 9 from four, now in the Champions League league-phase band. Pellegrini's side have three wins from four. Madrid stay level on points at the top but no longer unbeaten.
How to watch / Viewing notes
Full time is in. The fixture list attached international feeds rather than a confirmed Spain-only channel, so treat local Live Soccer on TV listings as the source of truth for replays. Skip unofficial goal clips. Official club posts and the scoreboard above are the clean record of a night decided by a rebound and a saved penalty.
