'Nice warm up for Chelsea' - Real Madrid fans confident of La Liga triumph after victory against Getafe

Real Madrid continued their good form with a 2-0 victory against rivals Getafe at the Santiago Bernabeu in a Spanish La Liga fixture played on Saturday, April 9, 2022.

Casemiro's first-half header and Lucas Vazquez's second-half finish sealed a 2-0 win for Carlo Ancelotti's team.

The victory gives Real Madrid a 12 point cushion at the top of the table.

For the first time since February 2020, Gareth Bale played his first game at the Bernabéu and the fans were not pleased when he was introduced.

Speaking after the game, goalscorer Vazquez stated that why victory was important.

He said, "The team is doing well. This match was an important one for us. We knew that Getafe would make it difficult and this is an important win.

"We've been playing matches well, with a positive dynamic and today was the same. This prepares us for what's to come."

After a 3-1 first leg victory away against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, Real Madrid fans are now confident of sealing the La Liga title with seven games left.

Carlo Ancelotti in his post-match press conference stated that he was a bit worried about the game following the trip to London in midweek to face Chelsea.

He said, the coach said: “It was a very good night. We were a little worried about this game, but the reaction was good and it all went well. 

“Even though some of those who played tonight don’t play so often, they were ready.”
