1-1 draw leaves Getafe and Deportivo sharing the points

Aubameyang equaliser earns Deportivo a point

Getafe and Deportivo La Coruna drew 1-1 at the Coliseum in La Liga’s fifth regular-season round. Getafe took the lead through Ramón Terrats in the 66th minute, but Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang levelled for Deportivo 12 minutes later. The result gave both sides a share of the points.

Terrats strikes, Aubameyang responds

The first goal arrived after Getafe had worked the ball forward through Iván Azón, who provided the assist for Terrats. Terrats finished a move that put the home side in front and was later replaced by Jose Luis Perez del Amo in the 84th minute.

Deportivo answered in the 78th minute. Yeremay Hernández supplied Aubameyang, who converted to restore parity. Aubameyang was the match’s highest-rated player at 8.2 after completing the full 90 minutes. His display included one goal, one shot on target and two key passes.

Deportivo controlled possession but lacked a decisive edge

The statistics show a clear difference in possession and passing. Deportivo had 64% of the ball, completed 418 passes and attempted 515 in total. Getafe completed 191 passes from 280 attempts. Deportivo also won seven corners to Getafe’s three and earned 14 free kicks compared with nine.

That control did not translate into a greater shot total or a win. Getafe attempted 15 shots to Deportivo’s 10, including seven from outside the box, while Deportivo had nine efforts from inside the box and only one from outside. The teams registered four and three shots on goal respectively. Getafe’s three goalkeeper saves and Deportivo’s two reflected a relatively even outcome despite the visitors’ territorial advantage.

Cards and changes shaped the second half

Getafe collected three yellow cards. Iván Azón was booked in the 26th minute, Lucas Noubi received Deportivo’s only yellow a minute later, and Enes Ünal was cautioned in the 42nd. Neither side received a red card.

Deportivo made three notable second-half changes before and after the equaliser, bringing on Adama Traoré for Marc Casadó in the 62nd minute and Yeremay Hernández and Zakaria Eddahchouri for Luismi Cruz and Bil Nsongo in the 71st. Getafe later introduced Francho Serrano Gracia, Jose Luis Perez del Amo and Saba Sazonov.

A point changes the form lines

The supplied standings listed Getafe 15th with four points from four matches and Deportivo sixth with eight points from four. This draw adds one point to each total: Getafe move to five points and Deportivo to nine after five games, although the updated positions are not provided. Getafe’s recent sequence becomes loss, win, loss, draw, draw, while Deportivo’s becomes draw, draw, win, win, draw.
