Analysis The numbers behind the result
Getafe clinical despite numerical disadvantage
Despite finishing the match with ten men, Getafe's 3-1 victory was deserved, as they were far more effective in converting their chances than FK Partizan. With 61% possession and 12 total shots (5 on target), Getafe consistently threatened, while Partizan managed just 1 shot on target from 8 attempts. Enes Ünal opened the scoring in the 10th minute, assisted by Johan Mojica, but Demba Seck equalised for Partizan just before half-time. The game turned in the 68th minute when Abdel Abqar received a second yellow card, reducing Getafe to ten men.
However, Getafe adapted brilliantly, scoring twice in the closing stages. Ángel García restored the lead in the 87th minute with an assist from Martín Satriano, and Mojica sealed the win in the 90th minute, again assisted by Satriano. The key stat was Getafe's efficiency in front of goal: they scored three times from five shots on target, while Partizan's lone goal from their sole shot on target was not enough to challenge the hosts' dominance.
