Real Madrid missed the opportunity to move within one point of La Liga leaders Barcelona after a stunning strike from Martin Satriano handed Getafe CF a shock victory at the Santiago Bernabéu.

Satriano produced a moment of brilliance just before half-time, unleashing a breathtaking volley that flew into the top corner beyond Thibaut Courtois. The goal condemned the hosts to a second successive league defeat and left them four points adrift of Barcelona after 26 matches.

Mbappé Absence Felt Again

Madrid were once again without Kylian Mbappé, who continues to struggle with an external ligament injury to his left knee sustained at the end of 2025. The absence of the French star, alongside England midfielder Jude Bellingham, has significantly impacted the team’s attacking fluidity.

Despite dominating possession, Madrid were repeatedly frustrated by Getafe’s resolute defence and the heroics of goalkeeper David Soria.

Missed Chances Prove Costly

Vinícius Júnior squandered a golden opportunity to give Madrid the lead, denied in a one-on-one situation by Soria. After the break, manager Álvaro Arbeloa made three substitutions within the first 10 minutes, including withdrawing Trent Alexander-Arnold.

The tempo increased, with Madrid threatening mainly from crosses. Antonio Rüdiger headed narrowly wide at the near post, while substitute Rodrygo directed an effort across goal that Dani Carvajal could not convert at the far post.

Late Drama and Red Cards

Madrid’s frustration boiled over in stoppage time when Franco Mastantuono received a straight red card for abusive language towards referee Alejandro Muñiz Ruiz.

Moments later, Getafe’s Adrián Liso was also dismissed after receiving a second yellow card for time wasting.

Arbeloa has now lost four of his 12 matches in charge, with injuries to key players compounding Madrid’s struggles.

What’s Next?

Real Madrid will look to bounce back when they face Celta Vigo on Friday (20:00 GMT), aiming to avoid a third consecutive La Liga defeat in what is fast becoming a tense title race.
