After its resounding success (1-3) on the lawn of Stamford Bridge and before returning to the Blues on Tuesday evening, Real received Getafe at the Bernabeu for the 31st day of La Liga. In front of his public, the leader quietly imposed his rhythm against the 14th in the championship. On an outside of the sublime right foot of Vinicius Jr, Casemiro (38 ‘) first opened the scoring with a nice diving header. Led 0-1 at the break, Getafe had not framed any shots during this first act, stifled by the outrageous domination of the White House (71% possession). Upon returning from the locker room, Ancelotti’s men left on the same basis. 20 minutes from time, Lucas Vazquez broke for Real, burying Getafe’s hopes. Defeat 0-2 for the club from the Madrid suburbs which remains 13th in La Liga this evening, with only 4 small points ahead of the red zone. With this success, Real Madrid remains a solid leader in La Liga (+12) ahead of Sevilla FC, which they will meet next Sunday in Andalusia.
