Getafe beats Mallorca in Laliga and stays away from the relegation zone
Goals from Arambarri and Uche seal the mathematical survival of the blue team
Getafe ended their struggle in Mallorca (1-2) , where they mathematically sealed their survival with second-half goals from Arambarri and Uche . Bordalás ‘ side are now spared a chance against a dangerous Celta Vigo on the final day . Another season for the blue team in the First Division, where they are already a classic despite their name not being as familiar as others. It’s no coincidence that they occupy twenty-first place in the league’s all-time standings.
The downside was Mallorca, who have been racking up weeks of poor form and are definitely out of Europe . The fans were angry, although when they reflect on the season, they might appreciate the fact that they’re fighting for those positions and not suffering any difficulties. Ask others.
Getafe’s top scorers at Son Moix explain what Bordalás’s team’s season has been like: the attacking midfielders doing the work that the forwards should have been doing. Ten of Getafe’s 33 goals in the league have been scored by Arambarri, including the one he scored at Son Moix to open the scoring. It had to be the Uruguayan. The center, a real eye-catcher, came from Terrats , one of those signings made in the winter transfer market that fits like a glove.
The match started with pace and chances for both teams. Nyom hit the crossbar with a superb right-footed shot, and then Juan Iglesias drew a terrific save from Greif , who responded to Leo Román ‘s brilliant performance at the Bernabéu. Mallorca has goalkeepers who are absolutely reliable. In the other box, a header from Dani Rodríguez gave the visitors a scare.
After that, the game became dull. Perhaps Getafe wasn’t averse to getting a point and taking a chance on another at home on the final matchday. And Mallorca was in its drab form of recent months. At the start of the second half, Getafe took a step forward, began to live closer to Greif and force corners. Arambarri’s goal arrived, and from then on, the game entered Getafe territory . Bordalás’s men displayed all their skill. Mallorca lost focus, and Uche scored the second with a magnificent shot, a stunner
Arrasate’s men had another unexpected burst of momentum. Larin headed home in added time, giving them time to put two or three more balls into the box. Getafe defended well, and they ended up celebrating on the Son Moix pitch. They sealed their away victory, as was only fitting.
