In the second half, Real Madrid coach Xabi Alonso introduced Vinícius Júnior from the bench, hoping to give his team a boost. However, it was Getafe who had a chance to take the lead when Adrián Liso's shot narrowly missed the post. A few minutes later, Mbappé had a free-kick that flew just past the upright.
The turning point of the game came when Allan Nyom received a straight red card for striking Vinícius in the face. Real Madrid quickly capitalized on the one-man advantage and took the lead when Mbappé scored from close range. Getafe's hopes of getting back into the game were further diminished when Álex picked up a second yellow card, leaving them with nine men.
The result means that Real Madrid have now won eight consecutive games against Getafe and lead the table by two points. Getafe, on the other hand, remain mid-table and five points clear of the relegation zone.
Real Madrid's victory was a testament to their team's resilience and determination. Kylian Mbappé was the standout player, scoring the winning goal and creating several scoring opportunities.
