Getafe
Getafe continued their amazing start to the season by going back to the top of the Spanish first division with a 2-1 win over previously unbeaten Valencia.
Star of the show was Getafe's Riki Sanchez who got the hosts' equaliser three minutes from half time and then made a magnificent run down the left wing to set up Pablo Redondo's winner two minutes from time.
Valencia's David Villa celebrated his recall to the Spanish team by scoring in his fifth consecutive game, with a header after 30 minutes.
However, Villa blotted his copybook by getting sent off in injury time as nerves started to fray
>> A little backstreet club in Madrid is running La Liga at the moment. 2-1 over Valencia is strong. Looks like the former Real Madrid striker Riki, will have a very good season.
Maybe Getafe take a Real Sociedad 2003 and running the show to the end. However, great for football and Spanish football.
