Ángel Rodríguez is back! He saved Getafe again scoring in the latter minutes to Athletic de Bilbao in order to keep up the European Dream one week more.    He has been  apparently disappeared for a while, but, in fact, he was waiting for the precise moment that Getafe needs him in to face the latter LaLiga rounds. The best version of Ángel is coming back! He started as substitutor but he scored just after he went in, beating Athletic and making happy all the supporters.    The game began at 2 pm at Coliseum, the starting line up was too conservative to play against a direct rival as Athletic. Bordalás used two wingers in both wings in order to keep the calm, but he changed his mind fast due to the lack of chances to score.   During the first half nothing happened until David Soria blocked to Athletic their only chance. In this moment, Bordalás realised his mistake and made a replacement, Foulquier was replaced by Portillo at 39', in order to take control over th

Getafe tied 1 to 1 in their visit againts Espanyol in Cornellà thanks to Ángel.    It is always difficult to do the right things, even more when the last match was horrible.

Getafe was deservedly defeated by Leganés 0-2 in the southern Madrid derby.    Getafe supporters did not enjoy a lovely day because their team was unrecognizable. Getafe's playing was regrettable. This two words would be the best way to describe how bad Getafe played Leganés. Perhaps, due to either the unusual time (1:00 pm local time) or the national teams have played for two weeks.    Leganés started dominating the match. In the 15th minute Maksimovic was pointed a penalty when he stopped a shot from Leganés with his hand. The only positive thing of this awful day was when David Soria blocked the penalty shot. The rest of first half wasn't interesting at all.    The firsts attemps of the second half would have seemed that Getafe wanted to win the match but just for a while because Leganés scored in 50th minute (goal awarded by the VAR because the lineman had canceled it by offside). A miracle can't happen everyday, Molina did not score this game. Getafe n
