Troy Parrott makes late cameo as Betis move above Real Madrid

TROY PARROTT WAS an 81st-minute substitute as veteran playmaker Isco struck twice to help Real Betis climb back into third place in La Liga with a 5-2 win over Osasuna on Sunday. Parrott replaced Cucho Hernández late on with Betis already 4-2 ahead, as the high-flyers prepare for a busy few days that include a Champions League game at home to Porto on Wednesday and a clash with Barcelona next weekend. The Andalusian side moved a point above Real Madrid, fourth and level with second-place Atlético Madrid, trailing leaders Barça by five points.
