He Getafe This Wednesday he stopped a Athletic in inferiority due to expulsion of Oihan Sancetwhich left his team one less in stoppage time in the first half and when Ernesto Valverde’s men had taken the lead with a first goal from Yuri Berchichethat, already in the second half, the Uruguayan Gaston Alvarez tied before Iñaki Williams score 2-1 and Junami Latasa close the scoreboard.

With this result, the red and white team maintains its position in the Champions League with a view to Saturday’s derby against Real Sociedad at the Reale Arena, but their good progress in recent games has slowed down, resulting in 13 points out of a possible 15, which is now 14 out of 18.

Getafe, who were surpassed in numerical equality by Athletic, provisionally climb to the first half of the table, even without stopping their bleeding of goals against, which is already 10 goals in the last four games.

Getafe got off to a better start, having already given Paredes a yellow card by minute 2, who had to stop by grabbing Mayoral when he was leaving alone; and by the 3rd he had already shot over Simón’s goal, who stopped Maksimovic’s shot without problems.

But the one who scored was the Athletic after a foul on the edge of the area against Vivian. Berenguer gave in to Yuri, he was able to hit without anyone to pressure him and the ball even surpassed Soria’s stretch, who more than stopped He helped the ball enter between the three sticks.

From there the Azulones tried to take control of the match and even had a chance to tie. From Mayoral, who received behind the defense and got rid of Vivian before finishing off Simón’s position. But The international goalkeeper is sweet and repelled the shot with his heel.

Before that action, midway through the first half, and then until half-time, the chances were all for the locals. The clearest were two from Guruzeta. In the first he ran into Soria, who created the opportunity with an error, and in the second, with the stick, which repelled his cross shot.

Also De Marcos had a good chance after a beautiful pass from Ander Herrera notable in his return to replace the injured Iñigo Ruiz de Galarreta.

Everything seemed rosy for Athletic, who seemed to have an advantage at half-time, playing better than their rival and even with the ‘Champions’ position on track with a view to Saturday’s derby against Real Sociedad in Anoeta.

But everything was clouded for the Basque team with the red card that Sancet saw in the first half stoppage time. An expulsion in a dispute with his leg raised with Diego Rico in which he touched the ball first and the opponent’s head later.

And things got even worse for Athletic when they returned from the locker room, since the Getafe tied after a corner kick by Aleñá. Gastón shot directly and touched Williams, perhaps in the hand, the ball entered the local goal, confusing Simón.

Athletic looked dead and Williams tired, but nothing could be further from the truth. Those of Ernesto Valverde they recovered and in an individual action by Williams against Angeleri, born from a splendid control by De Marcos, the Ghana international made it 2-1 with a cross shot.

Protected by their numerical superiority, those of José Bordalás They recovered quickly and went for 2-2, first with a very hard long-range shot by Oscar Rodríguez and then in a mess in the local area in which Simón ended up clearing a Latasa header off the line next to the crossbar.

Getafe insisted and had their reward in another header, precisely from Latasa, which He finished tremendously with a no less brilliant center from the right by Carmona.

The clash, unexpectedly calm until then, ended with a tangana next to the bench visitor, with several warnings and with the expulsion of the Getafe coach, José Bordalás.
