In an intense clash at the Coliseum Alfonso Pérez, Getafe emerged victorious with a 1-0 scoreline against Elche. The match-deciding goal was scored by Mauro Arambarri in the 55th minute, marking a key moment of the game.
Arambarri found the back of the net with a powerful header following a precise assist from Kiko Femenía, setting the tone for the second half.
Despite holding a significant 63% possession throughout the match, Elche struggled to convert their chances into goals, leaving them without the desired result.
Mauro Arambarri’s performance earned him the title of the standout player, as he not only scored but also completed 20 successful passes and attempted two shots on goal.
Another notable player was David Soria, Getafe’s goalkeeper, who made five crucial saves, contributing to the team’s success with six accurate passes from the back.
Getafe’s coach, José Bordalás, deployed a 4-4-2 formation with David Soria guarding the goal; a defensive line consisting of Allan Nyom, Djené Dakonam, Domingos Duarte, and Kiko Femenía; a midfield including Juan Iglesias, Luis Milla, Mauro Arambarri, and Alex Sancris; with Borja Mayoral and Adrián Liso leading the attack.
On the other hand, Elche’s manager, Eder Sarabia, opted for a similar 4-4-2 tactical setup, featuring Iñaki Peña in goal; Álvaro Núñez, David Affengruber, Léo Pétrot, and Héctor Fort in defense; Grady Diangana, Aleix Febas, Martim Neto, and Germán Valera in the midfield; and a forward line of Alvaro Rodriguez and André Silva.
The match was officiated by Alejandro Hernández Hernández.
