UEFA Europa League Group: Real Betis strengthened their lead at the top of UEFA Europa League Group C with three wins from their first four matches, thanks to a routine 4-1 victory at home to Aris Limassol on Thursday.

Betis coach Manuel Pellegrini rested players such as Isco and Ayoze Perez, but his side was too strong for the Cypriot outfit, with Borja Iglesias opening the scoring in the 33rd minute after a move involving Eze Abda and Luiz Henrique, reports Xinhua.

Aitor Ruibal doubled Betis' lead in the 64th minute with the assistance of Ayoze and Isco, who had just come on as substitutes.
