Betis sacks coach Rubi
Print Edition
Real Betis became the first La Liga club to sack a coach since the season re-started after being halted by the COVID-19 pandemic, firing Rubi who failed to win any of the team’s first three matches in its return to action. Betis lost its first game back 0-2 to Sevilla and drew 2-2 with Granada in mid-week while the final straw proved to be Saturday’s 0-1 defeat by Athletic Bilbao, after Sergio Canales missed a late penalty. Betis released a statement early yesterday saying Rubi had been relieved of his duties and that sporting director Alexis Trujillo, a former Betis player, would take charge for the final eight games of the season. The Athletic loss left Betis 14th on 34 points after 30 games, eight above Real Mallorca which occupies the final spot outside the relegation zone. Rubi was named Betis coach last summer after guiding Espanyol to seventh last season.
