Barcelona is on track for their first win at Getafe in seven years, having doubled their advantage at the Coliseum.
The match between Getafe and Barcelona in the south of Madrid has been a typical, hard-fought affair. However, Barcelona secured a crucial opening goal just before halftime when Fermin Lopez found the back of the net from a brilliant Pedri through ball. Since then, they have effectively managed the hosts and have now extended their lead further.

Barcelona’s second goal of the game was scored by substitute Marcus Rashford, who has been impactful since entering the field in the 60th minute. Following a Getafe corner, Robert Lewandowski released the Manchester United loanee, who calmly finished past the advancing David Soria.
With this victory, Barcelona is now poised to move 11 points ahead of Real Madrid in the La Liga standings. If they maintain this lead, they will have the opportunity to clinch the title next weekend.
