Claudio Bravo, a quarterback under sticks to scare Benzema and company

Sixty goals against scored against

last season.

Only Mallorca, which fell second to last, conceded more goals: sixty-five.

The teams defend as a tribe, but the goalkeeper is the first to receive the ax.

After the juicy sale of Pau López to Roma,

assumed ownership almost by default.

Although Ángel Haro spoke with Adrián San Miguel, Rubi finally decided not to repatriate the youth squad and bet on an inexperienced goalkeeper,

, trusting more in his potential than in his tender present.

Adrián ended up lifting trophies with Liverpool,

did not measure up to the opportunities he had in the Cup and Joel always left the feeling of being able to do more in many of the goals received.

The defense was fragile, the team broke easily and the Getafense goalkeeper did not work miracles.

A signing for the small area was imperative for

project

.

Claudio Bravo

(Viluco, Chile; 1983) was chosen.

Thirty-seven years old, fry striker, not very tall for the position, tireless in command, seasoned with his feet.

Back from everything, but hungry.

Like his coach, with whom he shares a passport, spent at Manchester City and the desire to make noise in a league that has started very well for the Verdiblancos.

Two games, two wins, two clean sheets.

And the feeling that Betis has a plan, a pattern of play.

The double pivot that his coach proposes establishes the team.

Makes sense of it.

are like a gloss that in the margin explains the football of their own.

The bloc is pragmatic and direct.

With spark above, with discipline below, and the contribution of a splendid Bravo, defiant, daring in the long game, ruler in his area.

A gloved boss.

"I am very competitive. I am ambitious. I work to win, I don't like to lose. I don't like to waste a week," he told the club's media.

He does not hide his leadership in the field.

Your craving is contagious.

Order and move.

Bail and scold.

The team is built from behind.

Like the waves, gather strength in the rear to die on the edge of the rival area.

"He is going to give us all his experience and his leadership on the court. I am very happy to have convinced him to come," Pellegrini said of his new goalkeeper.

The last 180 minutes of play have proved him right.

Bravo is a contemporary goalkeeper, one of those who camp away from the shadow of the sticks, who takes risks and likes the prominence of the ball.

To be noticed.

Stick with responsibilities.

His seniority further enlarges those features, which he always had.

Little pressure and a lot of courage.

The luxury of the years.

Real Madrid, whom Betis faces tonight (Benito Villamarín, 9:00 p.m. Movistar La Liga), is not a rival who remembers the Chilean goalkeeper with special fondness.

Ten defeats, two victories and a draw later - defending the Real Sociedad and Barcelona shirts - Claudio once again opposes the Madrid strikers.

Benzema, who will be in front of him today, managed to beat him in his last duel.

That was four years ago.

A world, if the area is your home and the gloves your heritage.
