"Obviously, it's a match where we could have done things better, but I think my players tried and we had more clear chances than them, Arbeloa said. However in football deserving isn't enough, and Getafe played a great game."
"After Real failed to clear a cross, Satriano playing his seventh match since joining on loan from Lyon in January pounced on the loose ball on the edge of the box and struck a fierce volley into the top left corner."
"Vinicius Junior should have put them ahead in the 13th minute when he raced clear on the counterattack, only for the goalkeeper David Soria to block his close-range effort with a sharp right-footed save."
Real Madrid dominated possession and created multiple clear chances against Getafe but failed to convert them into goals. Martin Satriano scored the decisive goal in the 39th minute with a fierce volley after a half-cleared cross dropped at the edge of the box. Despite Real's control of the match, Getafe's tactical discipline and goalkeeper David Soria's excellent saves secured the upset victory. The match turned ill-tempered in stoppage time with Franco Mastantuono receiving a straight red card for dissent and Adrian Liso also sent off. Real Madrid, missing key players including Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Eder Militao, remain second on 60 points, while Barcelona lead with 64 points.
