The house received respect after Real Madrid defeated Getafe 1-0 at the Santiago Bernabéu on match day 34 of the Spanish league. The Meringues picked up a win to stall the title Barcelona, who could become champions against Espanyol today. With a backup XI planned for the game against Manchester City, the sides led by Carlo Ancelotti had a difficult task to prevail against the visitors, as the Azulones were strong in defense and made some arrivals on Thibaut Courtois’ goal. The Geta’s resistance would not last forever, however.
Marco Asensio would become Real Madrid’s savior in the 70th minute with a shot deflected off a Getafe defender which would have been impossible for David Soria. In doing so, the locals added a win that will allow them to come motivated for Wednesday’s momentous game against Manchester City in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.
With Barcelona’s impending proclamation as 2022-2023 LaLiga champions, Real Madrid will turn their full focus on Europe’s most prestigious club competition and getting a step closer to No. 15 Orejona. “We’ll arrive with confidence no matter what line-up.” will have a bench with plenty of resources and that can help. Last year, the bank helped us a lot to win the Champions League,” Ancelotti explained at a press conference.
There are only a few days left to find out the fate of the merengue team in this Champions League.
