Real Madrid won an important victory this Sunday at the Santiago Bernabéu against Getafe, on behalf of the 15th day of La Liga.
Success was paramount for the Real Madrid this Sunday against Getafeafter the defeat of Barça Saturday facing The Palms in Montjuic (1-2). Still barely spared from injuries, Carlo Ancelotti could not count on Camavingainjured Anfieldbut saw the return of its Brazilian pearl Rodrygo. The Italian did not hesitate to start him alongside Mbappé et Brahimdespite a physical condition which could raise questions after his double muscular injury in the space of a month and a half to his thigh.
But number 11 of Real Madrid showed good legs, facilitating his team's offensive play with… Jude Bellingham. At the heart of the game, the Englishman once again proved to have found his best football this afternoon. He will open the scoring from the penalty spot at the half-hour mark (30th), following a foul by Grass on Rüdiger (28ᵉ).
Kylian Mbappé scores his 10th goal with Real Madrid
Before that, the Madrilenians had difficulty unlocking the low block established by Bordalas. But this goal wraps up the match and the 21-year-old midfielder finds space Kylian Mbappéwho, with a right foot strike outside the area, deceives magnificently well David Soria (38ᵉ). Returning post and 10th goal for the Frenchman in the jersey of Real : this is clearly another good news on the Madrid side after the latter's match name at Liverpool.
However, the most important thing to remember is that the Madrilenians are back to within 1 point of the Barça in the championship… with one match in hand! LaLiga seems completely revived, while the Blaugranas had their hands on it just after the victory in the Classic (0-4).
The man of this first period, Jude Bellinghamleaves its place to Arda Guler after the break, the Englishman having finished the Anfield match with pain. Ancelotti is therefore taking precautions to the delight of its supporters, who have already seen their team suffer around fifteen injuries since August.
Getafe will find the post of Thibaut Courtois in the second half twice, but the Merengue will maintain possession and management of time and low times. As for Mbappéhe will have the opportunity to score a second goal. But after doing the hard part by dribbling Soriahe will completely miss his shot once the goal is empty (74ᵉ). On the ground after the action, the Frenchman can't believe his eyes, but the supporters are quick to encourage him with enthusiasm in the process. He will miss the last gesture on two other actions (76ᵉ, 94ᵉ).
In the end, it's 2-0 for the Real Madrid and the whole Santiago Bernabéu is smiling. On Wednesday, the Madrilenians will have a big test against Bilbao in San Mamés, before a series of three away matches in Liga. The championship is relaunched, of course, but we will have to hold on against the Basques, Girona and the Rayo Vallecano.
