Betis’ bottle-throwers uphold their reputation for accuracy


The Betis missile launchers strike again

Fans of Real Betis have been performing their signature move again this weekend - bringing down the opposition with a well-hurled bottle. Last year they knocked Sevilla manager Juande Ramos out cold, on Saturday it was the turn of Bilbao keeper Armando Riveiro, who needed stitches in his eye. The fan, who has been left to contemplate the wisdom of his gesture in prison, has been banned from the stadium and Betis could be facing sanctions from the Spanish FA.
