Getafe with a 10-man team defeated Cadiz in the Spanish league

Getafe defeated Cadiz 1-0 in the Spanish league despite playing with 10 men for the whole game, breaking a record of five consecutive draws and pulling them farther away from the relegation zone.

Borja Mayoral scored with a close-range header in the 76th minute of Monday night's contest. The hosts were reduced to 10 men in the 44th minute as defender Djene was sent off for a second yellow card. Before a ball was passed into the area, he put his hand to an opponent's face. Getafe had not won a league match in six months. With the win over Cadiz, they moved up to 11th position, while Cadiz remained in 16th place, close to the relegation zone. Cadiz's league-losing skid has reached eight games, dating back to September. On Saturday, Getafe go to second-to-last Granada in the Spanish league.
