Barcelona was finally able to break the Getafe Coliseum Alfonso Perez complex, and score against the Madrid club for the first time since 2019.
Jules Kounde scored the opening goal for the Catalan club against Getafe in the ninth minute, taking advantage of a magical pass from Pedri that put him in front of the home team’s goalkeeper.

Junior Firpo was the last to score for Barcelona at Getafe stadium, in 2019 during Barca’s 2-0 victory at the time, and the other goal was scored by the legend Luis Suarez.
Since then, Barcelona has played 3 matches at the stadium, losing once 1-0 and drawing twice goalless.
In the same context, this important goal by Kounde crystallizes the wonderful level that the French star has been showing recently.
During the last 3 matches played by the Catalan right-back, he managed to score two goals against Getafe and Real Betis, and made another in the Clasico against Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final.
