Getafe hosted Valencia on 21 points and in sixteenth place. They needed to win and were left with nothing in the last ten minutes.

The match stayed level and goalless until the closing stages. In the 84th, Gayà, who had been booked three minutes earlier, made it 0-1 and decided the afternoon.

Bordalás had already turned to his bench with Mestanza, Coba and Juanmi, but Getafe found no answer in the little time that remained.

In stoppage time Valencia were reduced to ten by the sending-off of Rivero, who had come off the bench. Not even then.

Domingos Duarte and Liso were booked. Díaz de Mera refereed the match. The afternoon also brought Satriano's Primera División debut in a Getafe shirt.
