Antony and Jadon Sancho shared a hug at full-timeCredit: TNT SPORTSAntony, who is on loan from Manchester United, was seen sobbing at full-time.
He sat on the pitch heartbroken only for goalscorer Jadon Sancho to rush over and console him.
The two ex-United team-mates embraced in touching scenes.
Several Betis stars were also seen crying, including former West Ham duo Adrian and Pablo Fornals.
Antony joined the club in January and has become a fans’ favourite in Seville, scoring nine goals in 26 games.
But he could not replicate his good form in the final against Chelsea and he lost his temper late in the game.
The Brazilian winger picked up a yellow card for a rash challenge on Enzo Fernandez as the pair then squared up to each other and clashed heads.
Antony has made it clear he wants to stay at Betis but it is unclear if they can afford to keep him.

Man Utd will reportedly not accept a cut-price deal and they have been paying 16 per cent of his £200,000-a-week salary.
After beating Fiorentina in the Conference League semi-final, Betis fans chanted “Antony stay”.
And club legend Joaquin even joked he would help his kidnapping to ensure he does not return to Old Trafford.
He said: “I’ll provide the car if he has to be kidnapped, but let him stay no matter what.”
