Real Betis suffered a 2-0 defeat at Getafe on March 8, 2026, in a LaLiga match marred by fan unrest. The loss marks the third consecutive game without a win for Manuel Pellegrini’s side, following two prior draws.
Kiko Femenía opened the scoring for Getafe in the 28th minute and Martín Satriano added a second just moments into added time in the first half.
The match was temporarily halted for approximately five minutes when a group of Getafe ultras attempted to confront visiting supporters. Security forces intervened and detained those involved in the disturbance.
The incident unfolded around the 7th minute when members of the ‘Comandos Azules’ and ‘Cachorros’ groups tried to reach a section of the Coliseum stadium near the home fans. Police quickly stepped in to separate the two sets of supporters, and Getafe players attempted to de-escalate the tension before play resumed.
The interruption appeared to disrupt Real Betis, as they struggled to break down Getafe’s defense for the remainder of the contest.
With 43 points, Betis sits in fifth place in the LaLiga table and faces an increasingly difficult path to qualify for the Champions League. Villarreal currently occupies the fourth Champions League spot, 11 points ahead.
