Nine-Man Oviedo Hold Getafe, But Survival Hopes Fade

Down to nine men, Oviedo battled to a goalless draw at home against Getafe in a match from the 35th round of the Spanish championship. The hosts at the "Nuevo Carlos Tartiere" stadium displayed immense character, but this stalemate offered little solace, as the team is practically relegated from La Liga.

Oviedo defender Javi Lopez received a red card in the 54th minute, and then in the 78th minute, midfielder Kwasi Sibo was also sent off with a straight red, leaving the team with just nine players.

Following this draw, Oviedo sits at the bottom of the table with 29 points. With only three rounds remaining, their chances of staying in the top flight are purely theoretical and could vanish as early as tomorrow if Girona avoids defeat against Rayo Vallecano. Getafe, meanwhile, has 45 points and occupies seventh place.
