Before the half, Sandro Ramirez gave Las Palmas a response, but Nemanja Maksimovic increased Getafe’s lead. Their happiness was short-lived, though, as the opponents quickly grabbed a point from the Geta Azulones in the second half thanks to goals from former Barcelona player Munir El Haddadi and Sergi Cardona.
DID YOU KNOW?
