Celta, which went from better to worse, let two points escape against Getafe in the match played in ABANCA Balaídos, where the sky-blues team has not lost since last December. Maxi Gómez put the Vigo team ahead by taking advantage of a bad move from the rival goalkeeper. The visitors enjoyed a couple of good chances, frustrated by a great Sergio Alvarez in the Celta goal. Twelve minutes before the final whistle, the newly entered Mata put the tie on the scoreboard.
