Antonio Sanabria scored an injury-time winner as Real Betis stunned Real Madrid at Santiago Bernabeu on 20th of September. Zidane's side dominated the game for the majority of the time. But Cristiano Ronaldo was among the players who wasted multiple chances as Real unleashed 27 shots on goal.

Zinedine Zidane had not planned how to counter a spirited performance from Betis' goalkeeper Antonio Adan and a defensive masterplan from coach Quique Setien. Setien's counter-attacking strategy worked for his team. With Madrid players flying forward, Betis gained a lot more space for counter-attacking.

Betis had already thrown away a lot of counter-attacking opportunities with their inexperience in the final third. In the 94th minute of the game, Antonio Barragan provided a neat cross to the Betis striker to head home a last-minute winner.

It was Betis' first win against Madrid at Bernabeu in 19 years. It also ended Real Madrid's run of scoring in 73 consecutive games. The defending champions are far from their best this season. They are currently third in the points table eight points behind Barcelona and four behind Valencia.
