From the Volunteers, to the “double” with Real Madrid! Jefte Betancor, after eliminating her from the Cup: “Beasts!”

A striker with above-average technique, Jefte arrived in Romania in September 2020, transferred by FC Voluntari after spending several years in Austria.

Adventures followed at Farul and CFR Cluj, so that in January 2024 he would permanently leave the Superliga, for Panserraikos from Greece.

Returned to his native country in August 2025, loaned by Albacete from OlympiakosJefte just had the most special night of his playing career.

Introduced on the field in the 58th minute, he struck twice towards the end, the 82nd and 90+4 minutes, to eliminate the Madrid colossus from the competition. In the end, as expected, he was asked for interviews.

“I dreamed of something like this since I was little. I played for my child, my wife, my brothers, my family. I love them, I thank them for being with me and I dedicate this result to them.

I worked for this since I was little, now I can enjoy a magical moment.

We knew it would be difficult against the biggest team in the world, but we did everything according to the book. I gave everything, I was some beasts today!

I'm very happy, last week I missed two big opportunities. Today they came in. I will keep the shirt for my son! It will be a special memory. Teo, your father loves you. I love you all!” Jephte relayed.

At the end, the joy was so great, so wild, that the hero of the evening woke up with a broken nose, blood running down his face. Most likely, he was accidentally hit while everyone was jumping on him and congratulating him.
