Villarreal Seizes Control as Getafe's Milla Sees Red in Lopsided Affair
Atla Futmetrix Puanı: 35/100. When Luis Milla walked for unsportsmanlike conduct in the 48th minute, Villarreal's 2-0 demolition of Getafe became inevitable—a statement of intent from a side firmly in La Liga's title conversation.
From Balance to Breakdown in Three Brutal Minutes
The opening half promised balance. Tajon Buchanan struck at 45+5 courtesy of Ayoze Pérez's assist, but the real turning point arrived moments later. At 48 minutes, Milla received his marching orders, and the intensity drained from Getafe's resistance. Villarreal had numerical superiority. The stakes had shifted entirely.
Execution Without Mercy
With a man advantage, Villarreal showed no mercy. Gela Mikautadze put the game to bed in the 64th minute, converting what could have been a tight contest into a masterclass in control. The Yellow Submarine's backline, anchored by Juan Foyth and Renato Veiga, was immaculate: Getafe couldn't muster a single shot on target.
The Numbers Don't Lie
Villarreal's 62% possession and 10 shots (5 on target) painted a picture of dominance. Getafe managed six attempts, zero on goal. The xG told the fuller story: 0.58 versus 0.22. But statistics can't capture mentality. On a five-game winning streak, Villarreal continues proving why they belong in La Liga's elite tier, now sitting third with 32 points from 14 matches.
