Real Madrid vs Getafe: La Liga Match Highlights As Kylian Mbappe Returns To Scoresheet
Real Madrid made a return to winning ways and Kylian Mbappe got on the scoresheet during the 2-0 La Liga win against Getafe on Sunday, December 1. They suffered a devastating 2-0 defeat against Liverpool in their previous game in the UEFA Champions League game at Anfield. Jude Bellingham (30' P) and Mbappe (38') found the back of the net in the most recent match against Getafe.
Bellingham scored a stylish penalty, sending Getafe goalkeeper David Soria the wrong way before slotting the ball in the middle of the goal. Mbappe, who missed a penalty during the Liverpool game, also found the back of the net in style. He was found by Bellingham and the Frenchman slotted the ball to the back of the net from way outside the Getafe penalty area.
Los Merengues saw the majority of the possession during the game, controlling 70% of the ball. They managed four shots on target, compared to Getafe's three. Overall, it was a commanding performance from Carlo Ancelotti's team, who returned to the second spot in the La Liga table courtesy of the win. They have 33 points from 14 matches, one less than league leaders Barcelona with a game in hand.
