Ángel dresses Getafe as a leader

Valencia's victory in Anoeta minutes before provided the opportunity for the winner of the match between Getafe and Betis to be the leader of the First Division, at least for one day. Getafe took just a few minutes to turn that possibility into a wish and the wish into a reality. A scissor goal from Ángel began to dress Getafe as a leader. It was followed by a right hand from outside the area of ​​the left-handed Cucurella, and ended, again Angel to finish off a Betis to which the Tenerife striker made a suit. Getafe, leader. Getafe, undefeated. Getafe, unbeaten. Much Getafe.

Getafe showed his teeth since he left the locker room. He started by locking Betis behind, he insisted, he persisted and, after fifteen minutes, he found the goal prize. It was an attack play in which they participated Arambarri, Cucurella, Cucho, centered Nyom and ended up finishing Angel in a spectacular way with a magnificent scissors. The action was annulled by the linesman, but from the VAR, and after two and a half minutes reviewing the images, Gil Manzano reported that the goal was legal.

Ángel, who last season scored more goals (10) than matches made him the starter (8), played yesterday at the beginning because Ünal was out minutes before the game and because Mata was touched by the match in Vitoria. This is how a real killer spends them on someone who wanted to sign Barça last January.

Bad news was piling up at Betis. To the detail of losing was added that their differential players, the most talented like Canales and Fekir, they hadn't appeared once.

When you are lucky enough to face, things happen like a tight left-hander like Cucurella scores a goal with his right from outside the area. Joel could have done something else.

Bordalás had put Betis de Pellegrini in a cage from which it was impossible for him to get out, to the point that the Verdiblanco team did not make a shot between the three sticks until the 41st minute, a shot by Bartra from outside the area too focused and easy to clear for Soria's fists. Angel's 3-0 score came immediately, and in the last gasp of the first half came Betis's best chance in the entire match, a direct foul from Canales (47 ') to which Soria responded by flying and clearing one hand. .

The win at halftime (3-0) reflected Getafe's manifest superiority, but could also be misleading: they were the only three shots between the three suits of the azulón team.

He moved the Pellegrini shaker first with Borja Iglesias and a quarter of an hour later with Ruibal and Paul. He sold out all five changes in 72 'but it didn't matter: Betis did not arrive in danger even once to the Soria area.

Bordalás had time to temporize, to cool the game with changes and to give his players a measured rest. TAll the work was done. Getafe was the leader, they are still undefeated, they are still unbeaten. Much Getafe.

Pellegrini: “We had no mentality, football or attitude”

How is this defeat explained?

It was a very fake performance. The rival arrived three times and scored three goals, greatly helped by our defense. We didn't create chances either and it was a very bad performance. We knew he was a tough opponent and it was a negative night in every way.

Have you already forgotten about Real Madrid?

It was forgotten two hours after the game ended. I am worried about beating Valencia, which is another difficult opponent and we cannot repeat what we did today.

What was the image of the team due to?

Getafe is not a scoring team, it is a fighter and it showed it. He had three arrivals and we didn't have any creativity. In the second half we were more applied, but it was a match to forget in all aspects.

Bartra has said that this cannot be allowed. Was mentality lacking?

The team had neither mentality nor football nor attitude. You have to find the reasons. All matches change in a moment. We did not know how to defend well or attack well.

What did you look for with Bartra on the right?

You had to accommodate yourself to that position and we believed that it was the most convenient. The defense corresponds to the whole team and today we had no coordination.

Bordalás: “Leadership? I think about the next game “

Pellegrini says that Getafe arrived three times.

I do not value what Pellegrini says, for whom I have great respect. We had a great first half and a great game. This team competes every game and takes care of all the details. On a defensive level we have neutralized the fantastic potential of Betis and we have scored three goals. I'm very happy.

Was the funnel they made in the center key?

We have prepared the match to unfold in this way. It doesn't always come out, but we knew the potential and quality of Betis by filtering passes from the inside. The team did a great job from the front and we were very successful. In the second half we knew how to interpret it with the load of minutes that we carry.

What does it feel like to be a leader?

This has just begun and there is a world left. We think about the next game. Now we enjoy a few hours and starting tomorrow to prepare the game against Real.

What makes you most happy?

I'm happy for the great game against a rival of enormous level. We have scored three goals and you cannot detract from the team. On a defensive level, the team is showing great strength. The balance of a team is to give a great defensive and offensive level.

How many offers come for Cucurella?

I am very happy with my players. I don't know the offers that have arrived and my goal is to get the most out of the players. I've done it throughout my career and that's my job. Cucurella has a contract with Getafe and we don't think about that possibility

What will Angel's role be this season?

The players know what I want and what the team needs from them. I am very happy for the two goals he has scored and doubly happy for the great job he has done. I congratulate you. He is a player who has given us a lot and I hope he continues to do so. I am also happy for Cucurella's goal.

How is Unal?

We trust that he will arrive at the San Sebastián party. He was at risk of injury and there was no need to risk. A problem in the rectum, but I hope I can play the next game.
