Vinicius was unable to make a difference for Real Madrid. |
For the first time in almost two decades, Real Madrid suffered a home defeat against Getafe. Prior to this, "Los Blancos" had a streak of 16 consecutive wins at the Bernabeu when hosting their city rivals.
The humiliating second consecutive defeat was a cold shower for Real Madrid's ambitions of overthrowing Barcelona this season, as the gap between the two clubs widened to four points. Even the home fans were losing patience with coach Alvaro Arbeloa's team. Many left the stadium with just over 10 minutes left in the match.
On a day when Kylian Mbappe was absent due to injury, Real Madrid held possession for 78%, fired 18 shots in 90 minutes, but failed to find the net against Getafe. Even when the opposing goal was unguarded, Dani Carvajal couldn't score.
Conversely, Getafe needed only two shots on target to score the goal that ended Real Madrid's 18-year losing streak at home. Striker Martin Satriano was chosen as the hero for the Madrid-based team.
In the final minutes, Real Madrid fans were frustrated watching the white-shirted players repeatedly make misplaced passes. In the 90+5th minute, Franco Mastantuono sealed a disastrous day for the home team with a red card for reacting angrily to the referee.
