After 80 minutes, Real Madrid player Alvaro Arbeloa got his 2nd yellow card .Few minutes later, with Juan Albin's 84th minute goal,Getafe strenthened their attack but couldn't get the equalizer.

It took 8 months for Kaka to join the team. He came on for Benzema at 75 min. . Kaka says "I've had some tough times and the things I've missed the most are the team get-together, training with my team-mates, being with them in the dressing room, playing before our supporters... I lacked the joy I get from playing. I'm available now and I will do my best to play with joy again....."


Mourinho also says that injured striker Gonzalo Higuain will have to undergo surgery. Higuain has been out for the past month with a back injury.
