Buchanan breaks Getafe resistance as Villarreal win late

Villarreal beat Getafe on Sunday, with Canadian winger Buchanan scoring the opening goal after nearly 80 minutes of dominance without reward, according to a report by AS. Romero sealed the result in stoppage time.

The report said Villarreal never lost patience against a typically stubborn Getafe side and kept insisting on their approach until they finally broke through late in the match. The introduction of Pepe coincided with the spell in which the home side turned their control into goals.

AS framed the win as relief for coach Iñigo, who it said will spend the international break on the Villarreal bench. The report did not provide further details on the goals or the standings.
