Following the dismal performance away in Malaga last weekend, Mallorca were more positive in the opening exchanges against the Madrid side, Nunes deservedly giving them the lead with a header from a corner in the 25th minute. Into the second half Getafe started to come into the game more, but Mallorca remained largely in control, adding a second through the Japanese substitute Aki after 67 minutes. Getafe piled on some pressure, but were unable to make inroads, with Aouate resolute in goal. The win for Mallorca dispels any possibility of relegation; the team now has 42 points with five games remaining. Europe is probably out of reach, though.
