Martín Satriano delivered a decisive performance as a scorer, provider, and tactical catalyst, lifting Getafe to a 3-1 comeback victory against Sevilla after a contentious second-half surge at the Coliseum. Reporting on the fixture, local outlets detailed how Satriano and teammate Enes Unal overturned Kike Salas’s 19th-minute opening header for Sevilla, who ultimately faltered after securing an early lead.
Kike Salas Opens Scoring Before Sevilla Fades
Sevilla claimed the initiative early through straightforward execution, taking the lead when Félix Correira delivered an out-swinging corner kick. Defender Kike Salas rose completely unmarked in the penalty area to power an uncontested header past goalkeeper David Soria in the 19th minute, capitalizing on a defensive lapse by Djené. The visiting side applied firm pressure through the first half, keeping Getafe largely quiet and prompting whistles from the home supporters at halftime. Stassin also threatened to double the advantage before the interval, leaving Getafe facing a deficit and a hostile home atmosphere.

Satriano and Unal Orchestrate Second-Half Turnaround
Getafe transformed their approach after the break, mounting a sustained offensive assault led by Satriano. Goalkeeper Vlachodimos initially denied Andrés García following a sharp buildup orchestrated by Satriano and relayed by Terrats. The breakthrough arrived in the 68th minute when Satriano maneuvered past defenders down the flank before delivering a precise cross for Enes Unal to convert the equalizer.
Controversial VAR Decision Validates Getafe Lead
The defining moment of the match arrived in the 74th minute amid heavy protests from Sevilla players. The assistant referee raised his flag for a supposed foul prior to the sequence, but match referee Víctor García Verdura initially allowed play to continue. Unal collected the ball and crossed into the box, where Satriano finished with a deft backheel to score Getafe’s second goal. Following a pitchside monitor review, the VAR confirmed the play and validated the goal, leaving Sevilla players aggrieved over the uncalled infraction.
Late Sentences Seal Three Points at the Coliseum
Trailing 2-1, Sevilla chased the game and grew increasingly vulnerable on the counterattack. In the final moments of regulation, Manu Bueno received a red card for a professional foul against Satriano. Deep into stoppage time in the 94th minute, Orel Mangala secured the result by scoring Getafe’s third goal, sealing a 3-1 final scoreline that leaves Sevilla searching for answers after collecting just one victory across their last five league outings.
