Getafe edges out Alaves in a yellow-card filled affair
Getafe emerged victorious in a thrilling encounter against Alaves, a match that featured more yellow cards than goals. The home side dominated possession (55%), but struggled to convert that dominance into clear-cut chances.

The first goal came in the 42nd minute through M. Arambarri, while the second was a penalty converted by L. Milla in the 57th minute.
The match was marked by the intensity and fight of both teams, leading to a total of nine yellow cards: six for Alaves and three for Getafe. Despite their possession superiority and greater number of shots, Alaves could not find the key to unlock the opposition’s defense.
