Espanyol were pushing for a goal all throughout the first half of their La Liga match with Getafe, and they’ve delivered with a great goal less than ten minutes into the second half. The match is now deservingly level at 1-1, and Getafe will be forced to put their foot back on the gas, since this game is very much a “European six-pointer.”
Getafe Vs. Espanyol: Sergio Garcia And Luis Garcia Combine For Stellar Equalizer
Sergio Garcia was the man who set up the goal in spectacular fashion, somehow keeping the ball for an extended period of time on the right wing and eventually beating two defenders on his own. He put a cross into the box for Luis Garcia, who controlled the ball with a sublime first touch and hit the back of the net with his second touch, scoring past Oscar Ustari.
Espanyol are having a great season, but come from behind road wins have not been their forte by any stretch of the imagination. If they were able to somehow scrape three points from this match it would be a great feat, despite the fact that they have been the slightly better side for most of the opening hour of play.
