Part 1: Getafe vs. Real Madrid – Match Review
A brace by the Portuguese captain, Cristiano Ronaldo, helped the Los Blancos win 2-3 against their local city side, Getafe.
Getafe hosted Real Madrid in their home ground, the Coliseum Alfonso Perez. With a result in favour of Jose Mourinho’s side, Madrid has managed to move back to the second spot with only two points behind the table toppers, Barcelona, who also won their weekend
fixture against Llevant.
Cristiano Ronaldo scored the first goal of the game during the 11th minute after slamming a penalty past the Getafe goalkeeper. The penalty came with the help of the Argentinean striker, Angel Di Maria, who showed great form during the game.
The Argentinean got past two Getafe defenders and was taken down by Cata Diaz right when he was about to cross the ball. The referee, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 made
sure he capitalized on.
Eight minutes later, it was the newly signed German youngster, Mesut Ozil, who found the back of the net after a wonder-ball from Angel Di Maria.
The German midfielder read the ball well and ran past two Getafe defenders after receiving the ball from Angel Di Maria. Mesut Ozil wasted no time and brought the ball to his stronger left foot and dribbled past the diving Getafe goalkeeper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jordi-Codina-c19113
Rodriguez.
With the ball at his stronger left foot, the German youngster shot the ball into the net, leaving Getafe with no chance.
Despite the fact that Getafe looked to be under pressure, it was http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Dani-Parejo-c9878 who still managed to pull one back for the home team.
It was simply a “wonder goal” as he got past the whole Real Madrid defence on his own and shot the ball with his weaker left foot. It seemed to be an improper finish but he did enough to get it past the Los Blancos’ captain and goal stopper, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Iker-Casillas-c16815.
With Real Madrid leading the game with a single goal, their defensive lines started to feel under pressure.
They found it hard clearing the ball and it was hard for them to retain possession from Getafe in the midfield. It was definitely time for Real Madrid to act up front and it was none other than their highest goal scorer, Cristiano Ronaldo, who took the big
step.
