When you get it right in front of goal, everything is easier. Today, la Real did things well and defeated Getafe (2-0) thanks to goals from Oyarzabal and Kubo. The txuri urdin picked up another three points to cement their place at the fourth spot of the table.
Nothing happened in In the first half. However, in the final minute, the VAR review detected a penalty by Djené on Oyarzabal. The player from Eibar player missed his chance in front of Soria as the goalkeeper guessed the txuri urdin’s intention and prevented the home side from scoring. But Mikel always wants more, and after a brilliant play by Silva and Brais, he headed home the rebound made by the Getafe keeper. This result was very important before the break as this is a team that usually defends with many men but which does not take risks.
In the second half, an attempt by Silva from near midfield was saved by Soria. Then, the Realistas put together a beautiful play that, after a low and measured cross by Merino, was finished off by Kubo to double the txuri urdin’s advantage. Remiro was solid in a couple of shots from the Madrid side whereas Imanol's men had another chance to score, but were unable to finish.
Three more points to stay fourth. We must continue to dream big. Aurrera, Reala!
