  • Jaime Mata defended a merited point for Getafe in a 1-1 draw at LaLiga rivals Celta Vigo.
  • Mata ventured off the seat to flame home a 2nd-half equalizer after Maxi Gomez had headed Celta into an interim lead.

  • Getafe rushed to react, with Jorge Molina shooting a calculated shot against the crossbar two minutes after, Angel Rodriguez compelling a superb spare from home goalkeeper Sergio Alvarez.
  • The two sides kept on making chances in the 2nd half, however it was Getafe who broke the present state of affairs when Mata, a 66th-minute substitute for Mauro Arambarri, drove home a low shot to equalize the scoreboard, with only 12 minutes left on the clock.
  • Alvarez delivered another urgent spare to keep out Robert Ibanez’s low exertion in the end stages and Getafe goalkeeper David Soria Solis guaranteed a point for his side when dismissing Brais Mendez’s shot.
