A Real Madrid side playing at a fair makes Barça happy

Getafe, thanks to a stunning goal from Martín Satriano in the 39th minute, sent the Santiago Bernabéu into a frenzy, leaving the crowd both furious and resigned to another dismal performance from Real Madrid (0-1). The fans' faces throughout the second half were a picture of despair. Despite trailing and dominating possession, Real Madrid were a lackluster and ineffective side, unable to mount a comeback.

José Bordalás's men knew how to extract a point at the Bernabéu, with a solid defensive performance that neutralized Álvaro Arbeloa's side, who are lamenting the absence of Kylian Mbappé due to injury. The defeat pleases Hansi Flick's Barça, who emerge from the matchday strengthened, with a four-point lead at the top of the table.

It had been almost two decades since Getafe last won at the Bernabéu. Real Madrid's performance was dreadful. In the first half, the only clear chance for Los Blancos was a one-on-one for Vinícius, which was well saved by David Soria, Bordalás's goalkeeper. Real Madrid generated no danger whatsoever, and Getafe moved with ease in this setting.

Satriano, with a superb volley from the edge of the box after collecting a loose ball poorly defended by Real Madrid, forced a change of fortune in the first half. Antonio Rüdiger could have been sent off for a knee to Diego Rico's face, which referee Muñiz Ruiz deemed unintentional. After the break, Real Madrid created few chances. Mastantuono and Liso were both sent off.
