    • 90' All over!!! What a remarkable match!! Villarreal looked beaten at half-time, but they mounted a fine comeback to salvage a point and avoid a second successive home defeat in the league.
    • 85' GOOOOOAAAALLLL!!!!! Unbelievable!!!! Rossi shoots home through a crowded penalty area to bring the sides level. What did your Eurosport commentator say!!!! They could win this.
    • 83' GOOOOAAAALLLL!!! Diego Leal wins a header in the Getafe box and EGUREN IS IN THE RIGHT PLACE TO STEER THE BALL HOME!!!! There is still time for the home side!!!
    • 77' Villarreal are pressing hard, but the chances are not coming. Surely they must score in the next five minutes to have a chance of salvaging something here.
    • 69' Casquero tries his luck from 30 yards. Not this time.
    • 63' Pires makes way for Villarreal, to be replaced by Ariel Ibagaza.
    • 61' ALMOST ANOTHER ONE BACK FOR VILLARREAL!!! Senna chips in a free-kick and Joan Capdevilla misses a glorious chances at the far post to steer home a flicked header.
    • 59' Javier Rodriquez is booked for a deliberate handball. Tempers are flaring a touch. Which can only be good for the entertain aspect.
    • 55' GOOOOAAAALLL!!!! Villarreal have one back!!! Pires gets it, but in truth the Frenchman knew little about it. After another goalmouth scramble a clearance hits Pires and loops home to make it 3-1.
    • 53' Uche goes in the book for a deliberate handball to stop a cross coming in from the right. Villarreal have a free-kick, but Rossi's low ball is easily cleared.
    • 50' Pires is the next to threaten, striking one on the half-volley from the edge of the box. Once again Abbondanzieri saves.
    • 49' OOOOHHHH!!! Villarreal should be level!!! Sebastian Eguren reacts during a goalmouth scramble, but his header is saved by Roberto Abbodanzieri.
    • 47' Getafe's Angel tries an extravagant volley from 25 yards and it's not that far over!!
    • 46' The second half is GOOO!!!! There is a sneaking suspicion in the Eurosport office that Villarreal can come back from this.
    • 45' There's the half-time whistle and unbelievably Getafe lead 3-0. Villarreal have had move than 60 per cent of the possession but somehow they are getting hammered. Expect fireworks in the second half.
    • 43' Javi Venta is forced to come off after taking a knock. Angel is the man to replace him for the home side.
    • 36' The home side are trying to compose themselves here, playing neat possession football and building some confidence.
    • 30' GOOOOAAAALLL!!! Getafe lead 3-0!!! Javier Casquero latches on to a loose ball and fires a low left-foot shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box. Villarreal fans can hardly believe their eyes!!
    • 22' Free-kick to Getafe and GRANERO SHOOTS JUST OVER FROM 25 YARDS!!!
    • 17' GOOOOOAAAAALLLL!!! Gavilan puts the visitors 2-0 up!!! The midfielder found space at the far post and met a right-wing cross on the volley to send a wonderful shot into the opposite corner. Another screamer!!
    • 10' GOOOOOAAAALLL!!!!! Granero collects a flick from Angel and chests the ball before unleashing a fabulous volley into the top corner from just inside the box. WHAT A STRIKE!!! GETAFE LEAD!!!
    • 7' Giuseppe Rossi feeds a cute ball through but Senna can't quite latch on to it.
    • 5' Villarreal can close the gap at the top to just one point with a win here, but Barcelona play Valencia later with a chance to pull away.
    • 3' The home side are dominanting the early exchanges. Marcos Senna has a wild effort from 30 yards, but it flies wide.
    • 1' And we're away in Spain! With Villarreal in all yellow and Getafe in all blue. The pitch looks in immaculate condition, but the skies are threatening rain.
