Can you believe it? Antony, the Brazilian right winger rejected by Manchester United and firmly discarded by Amrabat, permanently transferred to La Liga’s Real Betis this summer and immediately continued his strong form from the first half of the season. In this round of La Liga, he delivered an astonishing performance with two goals and one assist, making him the only player to receive a perfect 10 rating this matchday.

In La Liga’s 11th round, Real Betis faced Mallorca. Pellegrini deployed a 4-2-3-1 formation, with a starting lineup valued at €119 million, and Antony was the undisputed choice for the right wing. Mallorca also lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with a starting lineup worth €54.5 million.
In this match, Antony started and played 83 minutes before being substituted. He scored twice assisted by Cujo and Bellerín in the 10th and 34th minutes respectively, and then set up teammate Abud in the 37th minute to seal the victory. Ultimately, Real Betis won 3-0 at home against Mallorca, with Antony involved in all three goals, delivering an outstanding 2 goals and 1 assist performance. After the game, Antony earned the highest rating of 10 (full marks), the only player in La Liga this round to achieve a perfect score.

After Real Betis’ 3-0 triumph over Mallorca, their points have reached 19, climbing to fifth place in La Liga. Given the current European qualification standings and rankings, it is highly likely that the top five teams this season will secure Champions League spots. From being a discarded Manchester United player to a key offensive threat in La Liga, Antony is playing with great joy and confidence at Real Betis. Besides Antony, another former Manchester United player, Rashford, also scored in this round of La Liga.
