LaLiga: Getafe ends 18-year drought against Real Madrid

Getafe CF pulled off a stunning upset by securing a 0-1 victory at the Santiago Bernabéu against Real Madrid this Monday, March 2, during LaLiga's 26th matchday. The club clinched its first win over the Madrid side since May 13, 2008, the date of their last LaLiga triumph over the Merengues on matchday 28.

Getafe's victory puts an end to a long period of frustration for the Azulones. Since that 2008 encounter, Getafe had failed to win a single match against Real Madrid at the Bernabéu across 41 meetings: 37 Madrid victories and 4 draws defined this stretch. The patience of the club's supporters has finally been rewarded with a historic triumph that will be forever etched in the club's history books.
