Getafe, with a goal from Mata in the 90th minute against Osasuna (2-1), and Cádiz, with another goal from Rubén Sobrino against Celta (1-0), gained an advantage in the agonizing fight for permanence that is being experienced in LaLiga. Relegated Espanyol, up to six teams (Valencia, Cádiz, Almería, Getafe, Celta and Valladolid), will fight to avoid relegation on the final day, in which there is a dramatic Valladolid-Getafe. Celta made life very complicated by losing to Cádiz. The Galician team is very striking, since it has been six games without winning (five defeats and a draw).
In a high-tension match in Almeria between the Andalusian team and Valladolid, in the end a draw was reached to zero that rewards more the aspirations of Almeria, which has 40 points and will visit on the last day to Espanyol, team already relegated. The best chances were the Andalusian team with a Valladolid that will trust all its luck to the last game in its fiefdom next Sunday. If he beats Getafe at the José Zorrilla, he will remain in the First Division.
Under a real deluge, Getafe and Osasuna played a clash marked by the need of the locals and the attempts of the Navarrese to continue opting for the seventh place, which gives the right to play the Conference League.
Osasuna went ahead in the three minutes, with a goal from Chimy Avila with a header. Getafe had the virtue of recomposing themselves and achieving the equalizer in the 39th minute, with a great header from Latasa that beat Sergio Herrera in the 39th minute. Herrera himself missed Getafe's second goal, which came in the 90th minute when Mata scored after an error by the Osasuna goalkeeper (2-1). The striker scored again 27 games later. A very important goal, since Getafe will be enough with the draw in Valladolid on the last day to stay in the First for another year.
Cádiz always wanted more than Almería in a duel that was marked by controversy and intervention in two plays in the first half. The two actions took place in the area of Celta, a team that has complicated life in the final stretch of the championship. In the 32nd minute, Bongonda, Cádiz's fittest player in this stretch, fell in the area after colliding with Javi Galán. De Burgos Bengoechea decreed a penalty, but after consulting the monitor for indication of the VAR reversed. In the 40th minute, the VAR again invalidated Lozano's shot on goal for a fair offside by Iza.
The Nuevo Mirandilla exploded with joy with Rubén Sobrino's goal in the 53rd minute. Celta tried, but Ledesma made a great stop to Larsen to prevent the tie. Cádiz visits Elche and a point is enough to keep them, although they are, together with Valencia, the team that has it best.
