Getafe, with former FC Twente striker and NAC striker Enes Ünal in the starting line-up, won 1-0 through a goal Borja Mayoral in the 82nd minute. Kluivert then thought he could make a major contribution to the 1-1 with a nice assist, but the flag was up: no goal and therefore no point for Valencia, which recently appointed club icon Rubén Baraja to protect the ailing club from relegation .

For the time being, Valencia is nineteenth with twenty points. Only Elche (nine points) is doing even worse. However, the differences at the bottom are small. Number eighteen Cádiz is on 22 points, just like the new number sixteen Getafe and also number seventeen Almería.
