Zaragoza stay in fifth spot
after drawing 2-2 at Getafe, although they will be ruing the loss of two points
after going in to a two goal lead in the first half hour. Güiza brought a
good save out of César early on, but Sergio García opened the
scoring with a shot on the turn after Aimar headed on a long throw a couple of
minutes later. Diego Milito had a goal disallowed for a border line offside,
and D'Alessandro added the second with a long free kick with bounced past
Abbondanzieri into the net ten minutes before the break.
The game appeared to be
wrapped up, but on the stroke of half time Manu headed one back from a Paredes
cross to put Getafe back in it. Alexis cleared off the line from Sergio
García soon after the restart, but Casquero brought another save out of
César before striking home a spectacular equaliser on the hour mark.
Both sides had chances after that, Güiza going close a couple of times and
Diogo bouncing a long cross-come-shot off the crossbar. But in the end they had
to settle for a point each, the sixth game in a row that Bernd Schuster's
side's had failed to win. |
