Argentine midfielder Giovanni Lo Celso (28, Real Betis), who was excluded from Tottenham's main force, left London and laid the foundation for his revival.

Roselso scored the first goal in the 7th minute of the first half in a home game in the seventh round of Spain's Primera Liga in the 2024-2025 season against Spain's Betis Benito Villamarine on the 24th (Korea time). He penetrated the goal with a powerful left-footed mid-range shot in front of the opponent's arc.

As a result, Lo Celso, who led the home game against Getafe in the sixth round on the 19th with a penalty kick, an additional goal with a left-footed mid-range shot, and a multi-goal victory, emerged as a 'certain ace' with two consecutive goals and three goals in two games.

In Spain, Celso's magic moves Betis with 'CELSO SHOW' and ', highlighting the Lo Celso effect, which has been showing a strong impact since the beginning of the season after moving from Tottenham to Betis last summer.

After leaving for Tottenham on loan as a member of Betis during the 2019-2020 season, Roselso, who completely transferred to Tottenham in 2020, only scored three goals in 77 Premier League games in a Tottenham uniform. The number of points scored in 77 games for Tottenham and the number of points scored in Betis' only third appearance are the same.

Rossellso played only four games as a league starter at Tottenham, where manager Engie Postecoglou took the helm in the 2023-2024 season.

Roselso moved to Betis for €5m last month and said: "I want to repeat that number and go beyond that" he expressed his bold ambition. In the 2018-2019 season, he pledged to show more than just his performance with nine La Liga goals and 16 goals, including the Cup, in Betis.

Roselso regained his `magic ability' thanks to a coach who would use him as a key attacking midfielder and a Betis fan who welcomed him with open arms.

Betis failed to overcome Lee Kang-in's former team Mallorca despite Rossellso's performance. One minute after Roselso's first goal, Dani Rodriguez scored the equalizer. In the third minute of extra time in the second half, which was 1-1 tight, he dedicated the come-from-behind winning goal to Valerie Fernandez.

Betis, led by former Manchester City manager Manuel Feygrini, was 11th with two wins, two draws and two losses and eight points in six games.
