 | Getafe recovered, Valencia sank again28-02-2021 |
Getafe finally broke their streak of poor results in La Liga. The team from the Madrid suburbs beat Valencia 3-0 and equalized in points with the `bats`. The goals for the hosts were scored by Mauro Arambari in the 39th minute, Jaime Mata in the 55th and Carles Alenya in the 87th. Valencia finished with 10 men after the red card of Muktar Diakabi in the second half. Before today`s match Getafe had 4 consecutive losses in the championship, and in none of these matches he failed to score a goal. The team did not score before, in the zero draw against Alaves. As expected, both teams were cautious at first. Getafe attacked a little more often, but without a clear idea of how to score. In the 39th minute, however, Arambari decided to look for the surprise and shot powerfully from over 30 meters. Jasper Silesen just touched the ball, but that wasn`t enough to stop it on its way to the net. The guests made the intrigue disappear quickly at the beginning of the second half. In the 51st minute, Diacabi was sent off for a foul on Nemanja Maksimovic, who took the ball away from him and broke away from the front. a little later Mata was brought out in the penalty area and went up to 2:0.
With a man less Valencia had no chance. Barcelona`s teenager Alenya came in from the bench in the 85th minute, and two minutes later he scored a third goal for Getafe. He met a badly deflected ball from the defense of the `bats` and overcame Silesen. After the match at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez, Getafe and Valencia have 27 points each and are in the bottom half of the table.
