Match

Getafe through in the cup

A 2‑1 win over Zaragoza, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Squad

Tempers go at Getafe

Sebastian Rodriguez was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

Jack Thompson is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Getafe is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Squad

Mario Martín falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Racing Santander take the points off Getafe

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The terraces

Getafe supporters have found a favourite in Iván Lozano

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 22-year-old it feels ownership of. Iván Lozano has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings

Iván Lozano was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.37. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Player ratings

Jon Duran runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 18. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Edward Harris lets one through his hands

A defender's mistake gets tidied up by somebody else; a goalkeeper's ends up in the net. He knew before the ball crossed the line, and so did everybody in the ground.

Market

Getafe say no — this time

The offer from Cultural Leonesa for Carlos Sánchez was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad

Sebastian Rodriguez in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Getafe this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Sam Cuntapay stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Sam Cuntapay and Getafe agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Words at Getafe training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Mario Martín is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

The Jan Sosa conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Atlético Madrid will make the call about Jan Sosa this week. Getafe have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Squad

Luis Muñoz gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Match

No end in sight to Getafe's wait for a win

13 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Getafe has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Jan Sosa hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Getafe can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Tempers go at Getafe

Sebastian Rodriguez was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

Atlético Madrid take the points off Getafe

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

A promise honoured for Ro Abajas

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Getafe told Ro Abajas something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ro Abajas

72 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Getafe lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match

Cup progress for Getafe

A 5‑2 win over Girona, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Squad

Alejandro Alonso breaks a bone — 102 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 102 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Luis Muñoz takes the match ball home

3 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Squad

Tempers go at Getafe

Sebastian Rodriguez was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match

7 goals as Getafe and Girona go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 7 goals between Getafe and Girona, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Player ratings

One of those days for Luis Muñoz

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 9.58, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match

Mallorca take the points off Getafe

Beaten 1‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The terraces

Getafe supporters have found a favourite in Jon Duran

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Jon Duran has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.
