Getafe's defender Cosmin Contra believes that the UEFA Cup quarter-final, second leg at home to Bayern Munich is the biggest game in the club's history.
The small club from the Madrid suburbs won promotion to Spain's Primera Division for the first time in 2004 but have established themselves as a top-half side, qualifying for the UEFA Cup as beaten finalists in the Copa del Rey last season.
And they held the mighty Bayern to a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Germany, giving them an away goals advantage.
"Bayern are still the favourites even though we got a good result over there," the Romania international, who scored a 90th-minute equaliser in the first leg, said. "But we are going to give it all we've got for our fans and all of Spain that will surely be with us.
"It's the biggest game in the club's history. If we play the way we did in the second half in Munich we could get through to the next stage."
