In a surprising result, Real Madrid faced a rare defeat at home, losing 0-1 to Getafe on Monday. This match stands out not only for its scoreline but also because it marks the first time in 18 years that Getafe has managed to secure a win against their more illustrious city rivals at the Santiago Bernabéu Stadium. The only goal of the game came from Martin Satrian, who scored in the first half, cementing the underdog's historic victory.

The defeat is significant for Real Madrid, a club accustomed to victory on their home turf, and it comes at a time when they are struggling in the league.

As the season progresses, Real Madrid must regroup quickly to avoid further setbacks.
