"Alvaro Arbeloa's side had 78% of the possession in the first 45 minutes and mustered four shots on target as they dominated. But with star striker Kylian Mbappe absent with a knee injury they lacked a killer touch and did not really trouble Getafe skipper David Soria in goal."
"And they were made to pay when Martin Satriano scored a stunning volley from the edge of the penalty area, smashing the ball past Thibaut Courtois. Defeat would leave Real four points behind Barcelona at the summit."
Real Madrid dominated the first half against Getafe with 78% possession and four shots on target, but failed to convert their superiority into goals.

A defeat would leave Real Madrid four points behind Barcelona at the top of La Liga standings.
